Project Manager Painting Drywall

The Painting & Drywall Project Manager runs projects in the field once they're sold — coordinating crews, managing timelines, and making sure both painting and drywall/texture work are completed to True Coat's standards. This is a hands‑on, on‑site role for someone who knows the trade, can spot a problem before it becomes a delay, and keeps customers and crews aligned throughout the life of a project.

• Manage residential and commercial projects from kickoff through final walkthrough, including both painting and drywall/texture scopes.
• Schedule crews and subcontractors, sequence work correctly (e.g., drywall repair and texture‑matching ahead of paint), and keep projects moving on timeline.
• Conduct site walkthroughs to assess drywall damage, texture matching needs, and surface prep requirements before and during work.
• Order and coordinate materials, ensuring the right products, sheens, textures, and colors are on‑site when needed.
• Monitor project budgets and labor hours to keep jobs on track against the estimated margin.
• Perform quality checks throughout each project — drywall patch and texture blending, prep work, and final paint finish.
• Catch and resolve issues (surface defects, color mismatches, texture inconsistencies) before they become customer complaints.
• Ensure crews follow proper safety practices and True Coat's quality standards on every job.
• Serve as the on‑site point of contact for customers during active projects, providing clear updates on progress and timeline.
• Communicate proactively with the sales and office team on project status, changes in scope, or delays.
• Manage crew performance and provide on‑the‑job coaching and direction.
• Support smooth handoff from sales/estimating into execution, and from execution into final customer sign‑off.

• 2+ years of experience in construction project management – a significant hands‑on trade experience with project oversight responsibility.
• Working knowledge of painting prep and application.
• Strong scheduling and organizational skills – able to manage multiple crews and projects at different stages simultaneously.
• Comfortable leading and coaching crews in the field.
• Clear communicator, both with customers and internally with the office team.
• Valid driver's license and reliable transportation to job sites across the Denver/Boulder Front Range.
• A quality‑first mindset – you catch the details others miss.

• Projects completed on time, on budget, and at or above target gross margin.
• Excellent customer communication and a positive customer experience.
• Consistent quality across both drywall and paint scopes, with minimal callbacks.
• Strong customer satisfaction and positive reviews tied to project execution.
• Crews that are well‑coordinated, safety‑conscious, and hitting daily production targets.
