The Birmingham Group places senior construction leaders for contractors building in Las Vegas.
We are a national construction executive search firm that has recruited in construction only since 1967. We are not a local staffing desk and we do not run resume boards. We find, screen, and deliver the project managers, superintendents, estimators, and executives who run commercial work across the Las Vegas and Nevada market.
Las Vegas is one of the busiest construction markets in the country right now, and one of the hardest places to hold a strong leadership bench. When a key seat opens on a Las Vegas project, we help you fill it with a proven leader, and we keep the search confidential when that matters.
The Las Vegas Construction Market in 2026
Las Vegas construction is growing fast across resorts and hospitality, mission critical and data center work, healthcare, and major infrastructure. Engineering News-Record has called the local market one of the brightest in the country, and job boards list well over a thousand open construction roles in the metro at any given time. Nevada employs about 112,200 construction workers as of 2025, according to Federal Reserve (FRED) data.
The problem is not labor alone. It is leadership. New resort and entertainment projects, hospital expansions, data center builds, and infrastructure such as the Brightline West high-speed rail line all pull from the same limited pool of experienced construction managers, superintendents, and estimators. Contractors that win the talent build the backlog. Contractors that fall behind on hiring lose schedule and margin.
That is the gap we close. We reach the experienced Las Vegas construction leaders who are not answering job ads, and the proven candidates in nearby markets who will relocate for the right move.
Roles We Recruit in the Las Vegas Market
Construction Project Manager Recruiters
Project managers are the hardest commercial hire to get right in a fast market. A strong PM protects schedule, controls cost, and keeps the owner confident. Las Vegas PMs average about $95,906 in base pay, ranging from $64,398 to $142,829 (Indeed, 2026). We benchmark every offer against our Construction Salary Survey so it lands the first time.
Superintendent and Field Leadership
Field leadership makes or breaks a Las Vegas job. We place general superintendents and superintendents who run large commercial and mission critical work and hold a schedule in a tight subcontractor market. Local superintendents average about $98,312 in base pay, from $71,853 to $134,516 (Indeed, 2026).
Estimating and Preconstruction
Backlog starts in preconstruction. We recruit chief estimators, estimators, and preconstruction leaders who win the right work at the right margin, not just the fastest bid. In a market this competitive, that is a higher bar than bid-day speed.
