Job Description
We are seeking an experienced Project Manager to oversee commercial construction projects from preconstruction through closeout, with full ownership of execution, financials, and client relationships.
This is not a partial-process or support role. You will manage projects end-to-end — estimating, contracts, scheduling, cost control, subcontractor coordination, and client communication — across a diverse and steady pipeline of commercial, industrial, and institutional work. This role is designed for a hands-on builder who understands both the field and the financial side of construction, is comfortable working independently, and takes genuine ownership of outcomes.
What You'll Own
• Manage 3–4 concurrent commercial construction projects ranging from $2 million to $10 million in value
• Oversee the complete project lifecycle including estimating, contracts, scheduling, change orders, billing, and cost tracking
• Coordinate subcontractors, vendors, and internal teams to maintain schedule adherence and scope alignment across all active projects
• Serve as the primary point of contact for clients, driving clear and proactive communication from award through closeout
• Monitor project budgets, control costs, and maintain accountability for overall project profitability
• Identify and resolve issues related to scope, schedule, and field execution before they escalate into larger problems
Requirements:
• 5+ years of commercial construction project management experience, or a construction-related degree with demonstrated project responsibility
• Hands-on experience with estimating and contract management
• Proven ability to manage multiple concurrent projects independently and without heavy oversight
• Strong communication and coordination skills across clients, subcontractors, and internal teams
• Organized, self-directed, and comfortable operating in a high-autonomy, ownership-driven environment
• PMP, OSHA, or comparable certifications a plus
• Must be willing to work in-office; relocation candidates are welcome
Benefits:
• $75,000–$100,000 base salary
• Performance-based growth opportunities
• Stable and diverse pipeline of commercial, industrial, and institutional projects
• High level of autonomy with a clear path for advancement within the organization
