Job Title:
Assistant Project Manager (Manufacturing & Construction)
Company: Bridge Brothers
About Bridge BrothersBridge Brothers designs, engineers, fabricates, and constructs custom steel bridge systems used across the country—from municipalities and national parks to energy and private-sector clients.
Our work lives at the intersection of engineering, manufacturing, and construction
. Projects are complex, highly visible, and built to last decades. We value people who take ownership, think critically, and want to understand how things are actually built—not just tracked.
When you join Bridge Brothers, you’re not just supporting projects—you’re helping deliver infrastructure that connects communities.
Position SummaryBridge Brothers is seeking a hands-on Assistant Project Manager to support the execution of large-scale bridge manufacturing projects.
This role is designed for candidates with construction, manufacturing, or engineering-adjacent backgrounds who want deep exposure to how complex steel projects move from design → fabrication → QC → delivery
.
You’ll work directly with Project Managers and cross-functional teams, gain ownership early, and build the foundation to grow into a full Project Manager role
.
This is not a paperwork-only PM role
—it’s an execution-focused position in a fast-paced industrial environment.
- Support Project Managers in executing bridge manufacturing projects from kickoff through shipment
- Track project milestones across engineering, procurement, fabrication, QC, and shipping
- Help ensure smooth handoffs between sales, engineering, and production teams
- Identify gaps, delays, or blockers and escalate proactively
- Coordinate daily with engineering, fabrication, QC, and shipping teams
- Review drawings, specifications, and scope documents to understand project requirements
- Support drawing control, revisions, and release tracking
- Assist with fabrication status tracking and milestone readiness
- Maintain RFIs, submittals, change orders, purchase orders, and job logs
- Upload and manage documentation in client and internal systems (Procore, VPM, Power Fab)
- Maintain accurate revision histories to ensure teams are working from current information
- Support photo documentation and client reporting
- Attend internal and external project meetings
- Capture meeting notes, track action items, and follow through to closure
- Assist with weekly audits (ABOM, drawing, procurement) as needed
- Compile progress updates on schedule, fabrication status, and delivery timing
This role is a strong fit if you come from:
- Construction (field, project coordination, or PM support)
- Manufacturing or fabrication environments
- Engineering or technical project coordination roles
And you’re looking to:
- Build real project ownership
- Learn how complex steel projects are executed
- Grow into a Project Manager role over time
- Associate or Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Business, or related field preferred
- 1–3 years of experience in project coordination, manufacturing, construction, or engineering environments
- Strong organizational skills and attention to detail
- Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced setting
- Comfortable reading construction drawings and technical documentation
- Proficient with Microsoft Office, Google Workspace, and project tools
- Self-starter with strong follow-through and a desire to learn
- Schedule: Monday–Friday, Full-Time
- Employment Type: Non-exempt, Hourly
