Commercial Construction Project Manager

RGZ Construction is looking for an experienced Commercial Project Manager to take ownership of our awarded projects from handoff through closeout. This is a hands-on role for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, multi-project environment and knows how to protect a project's schedule, budget, and margin at every stage. You'll work closely with estimating, field leadership, and general contractors to keep jobs moving, costs in check, and clients satisfied.

If you have a strong background in commercial subcontracting, know how to read a set of drawings cold, and aren't afraid to negotiate a change order aggressively, we want to talk to you.

• Identify scope gaps, exclusions, and potential risks.
• Conduct project handoff meetings with estimating and field teams.
• Develop material procurement and manpower plans.
• Submit submittals, RFIs, and required project documentation.

• Coordinate directly with superintendents and foremen to support efficient production.
• Monitor manpower levels, productivity, and installation sequencing.
• Assist in resolving site conflicts, access issues, and coordination problems.
• Perform periodic site visits to verify progress and quality.

• Manage project budgets and track labor, materials, and subcontract costs.
• Review job cost reports and take corrective action when needed.
• Prepare, price, and negotiate change orders aggressively and timely.
• Submit monthly pay applications and track collections.
• Protect company margin by identifying out-of-scope work.

• Review and understand GC master schedules.
• Coordinate work activities to maintain progress milestones.
• Identify delays early and document impacts.
• Communicate schedule risks to leadership and field teams.

• Serve as primary contact with general contractors and project stakeholders.
• Attend coordination and progress meetings.
• Maintain professional working relationships while protecting company interests.
• Communicate clearly with internal teams regarding expectations and changes.

• Manage RFIs, ASIs, change directives, and correspondence.
• Maintain organized project files.
• Coordinate inspections, punch lists, and final completion.
• Assemble warranties, closeout documents, and final billing.

• 2+ years managing commercial construction projects (subcontractor experience preferred).
• Ability to read and interpret construction drawings and specs.
• Strong understanding of labor production and job costing.
• Experience handling change orders and pay applications.
• Comfortable working in fast-paced, multi-project environments.

• Drywall, framing, ceilings, or interior systems experience.
• Public works or government project experience.
• Familiarity with Procore or similar construction software.
• Bilingual (English/Spanish) communication skills.

• Projects completed safely and on schedule.
• Accurate cost tracking and maintained profitability.
• Timely change order capture and approval.
• Strong coordination with field leadership.
• Professional client relationships.
