Assistant Project Manager

ASSISTANT CONSTRUCTION MANAGER JOB DESCRIPTION At Thrive we believe in building places people are proud to call home. Thrive Companies is a vertically integrated real estate developer focused on large-scale, mixed-use communities. Our developments seamlessly integrate residential, commercial, and lifestyle spaces with exceptional service to create vibrant, inclusive environments where individuals and businesses can thrive.

POSITION SUMMARY: The Assistant Project Manager supports Thrive’s Project Managers across the full life of a project — from preconstruction through active construction and closeout. Working side by side with the Construction team, the Assistant Project Manager keeps the details that move a project forward organized and current: scopes and contracts, submittals, RFIs, change orders, meeting minutes, and project reporting. Many of the responsibilities mirror those of a Project Manager, which makes this a deliberate growth role: it is built for someone ready to learn the business of building and eventually step into a Project Manager position.
