Yes, Tennessee's heavy civil market is active, but candidate supply remains tight. Tennessee faces a documented shortage of over 315,000 skilled workers statewide, and national construction labor pressure continues. We're actively recruiting heavy civil talent across Nashville, Memphis, and Knoxville for roles in earthwork, underground utilities, site development, highways, bridges, and wastewater infrastructure.
Current salary ranges we're seeing: Heavy civil superintendents (highway/bridge focus) are commanding $100K, $125K base in markets like Clarksville. Estimators and preconstruction roles in Nashville are trending $100K, $140K. These ranges reflect the supply-constrained market and the specialized skill set required.
At Amundson Group, we specialize in senior placements, PM, superintendent, estimator, and project engineer roles, across heavy civil, commercial, industrial, and energy sectors. We understand Tennessee's labor dynamics and can connect you with vetted candidates faster than traditional recruiting. Let's talk through your specific needs.
