Spring 2027 Construction Project Management Co-op

Location: Atlanta, GA

Department: General

JOB SUMMARY 

As a Co-op, you will be part of the team from day one and given training and tasks that are important and impactful to our projects' success.

Success in this role depends on the Co-op’s initiative and teamwork. A successful Co-op will support estimating and operations, collaborate with vendors and subcontractors, and support the Field Foreman with customer needs through scheduling and site logistics management. A top achieving Co-op may gain the opportunity to manage projects from start to finish under a Project Manager’s guidance. 

McKenney's has a long history of success in hiring Co-ops and supporting their evolution into industry leaders. Many of our current senior leaders began their journey in the Co-op program.

• Take on additional responsibilities each rotation while managing priorities.
