Our client is hiring an Associate Mitigation Project Manager (APM) – a high‑potential, coachable future Project Manager to join a fast‑growing restoration business based in New York. This is not a dead‑end support role. This is a structured, hands‑on training and development position designed to turn strong operators into full Project Managers running their own projects, clients, and production.

You will train directly under a Senior Mitigation PM (based in New York), learn the full job lifecycle end‑to‑end, and progressively take ownership of your own mitigation projects as you ramp.

Restoration exists to help people and businesses during hard days – floods, burst pipes, mold, and major losses. You'll do meaningful work, build real technical and operational skill, and see tangible impact from what you do every day.

Opportunities in both New York and New Jersey (Metro NY/NJ). Field‑based roles require travel across NYC and Northeast NJ as needed.

Paul Davis is one of the leading restoration and reconstruction companies in the country, operating in nearly 400 markets. Our Metro NY/NJ team is locally based, growing fast, and committed to developing talent.

• Train directly under a Senior Mitigation Project Manager and progressively take ownership of your own mitigation projects as you ramp.
• Refine your ability to scope and manage water, mold, and environmental losses.
• Build strong fundamentals in documentation (photos, notes, job files, moisture logs).
• Learn industry software like Docu Sketch (preferred), mobile documentation tools, and internal job‑management systems (Xactimate/Symbility exposure is a plus) (as applicable).
• Drive inspections, measurements, job planning, and field coordination.
• Coordinate crews, equipment, vendors, and schedules.
• Communicate professionally with customers, building staff, and adjusters.
• Progressively take ownership of smaller mitigation projects end‑to‑end with supervision.

• Phase 1:
  Structured training + shadowing
• Phase 2:
  Owning smaller projects with oversight
• Phase 3:
  Promotion to Mitigation Project Manager based on competence, consistency, and performance.

• Hungry to learn a new industry and build a real career.
• Organized, dependable, and take pride in doing things the right way.
• Enjoy being in the field and solving problems in real time.
• Resilient in stressful situations – sharpening under pressure.
• Looking for responsibility and a path into leadership and project ownership.

• Required:
  
  Valid driver’s license; comfort working in the field and on job sites; strong communication skills; basic comfort with technology (phones, apps, tablets/computers).
• Preferred:
  Mitigation/restoration experience; exposure to Xactimate/Symbility/Docu Sketch; prior field coordination, crew leadership, or project support experience.

• Base salary: $50,000 – $60,000 (commensurate with experience)
• Total expected compensation: $60,000 – $95,000+ (uncapped upside tied to production and performance).
• Benefits package: PTO, 401(k) with match, medical reimbursement, and training/development support.
