A construction firm in the South needed an experienced W/WW Project Manager. Amundson Group delivered a qualified candidate who has settled into the role beyond the 90-day mark. ## The Client Need A construction firm operating in the South was seeking an experienced Water/Wastewater Project Manager to lead project delivery on utility infrastructure work. The role demanded a professional with hands-on field knowledge, strong owner-client communication skills, and a track record of managing complex wastewater scopes from preconstruction through closeout. ## Amundson Group's Search Process Leveraging a network of 90,000+ construction professionals, the Amundson Group recruiting team moved quickly to identify candidates whose backgrounds aligned with the technical and operational demands of the role. The firm's focus on wastewater sector recruiting, one of its core verticals, meant the team already had relevant, pre-vetted talent relationships in place. From job intake to first qualified resume, the process reflects the firm's standard of speed and precision. Key criteria prioritized during the search included: - Demonstrated W/WW project management experience on municipal or regional utility work - Ability to manage subcontractors, budgets, and schedules simultaneously - Strong communication skills for interfacing with public-sector owners and inspectors - Cultural fit with the client firm's operational style and values ## Outcome at 90+ Days The placed professional has now been in the role for over 90 days.

The hire has integrated into the project team, taken ownership of active scopes, and established working relationships with key stakeholders on both the client and owner sides.
