United Contractor Services is a specialty subcontractor working on commercial interior projects nationwide. Our scopes include light gauge framing, Division 8 openings, and Division 10 Specialties on large-scale commercial builds. We self-perform, we hold a high standard on quality and schedule, and we hire people who take that seriously.

We're hiring an Assistant Project Manager to support our Division 8 team on commercial door, frame, and hardware packages. You'll work directly under an experienced Project Manager, handling submittals, procurement tracking, scheduling support, and day-to-day coordination with vendors, field crews, and general contractors. This is a hands-on position with real ownership of specific project tasks - and a clear path toward running your own projects as you gain experience.

• Prepare, review, and track submittals and shop drawings for hollow metal, wood doors, and finish hardware
• Assist with material procurement, purchase orders, and delivery scheduling to keep releases ahead of field needs
• Maintain project documentation, RFIs, change order logs, and close-out packages
• Support schedule development and provide updates on progress, delays, and upcoming milestones
• Coordinate with general contractors, vendors, and field supervision on openings-related questions and conflicts
• Help track project costs and flag budget concerns to the Project Manager early
• Visit job sites to verify field conditions, check installed work against approved submittals, and support field teams
• Assist with hardware sets, keying schedules, and code compliance verification (UL listings, fire ratings, ADA, life safety)

• 1–3 years of experience in commercial construction - project engineering, project coordination, estimating, or a related support role
• Familiarity with commercial doors, frames, and hardware is preferred;
  Division 10 Specialties exposure is a plus
• Ability to read construction drawings and specifications, and to review submittal packages for accuracy
• Comfortable working in project management software and Excel; experience with Procore or Bluebeam is helpful
• Organized and detail-oriented, with the ability to track multiple projects and deadlines at once
• Clear communicator who can hold a conversation with a GC, a supplier, and an installer in the same afternoon
• Willingness to learn the code and compliance side of openings work

Competitive pay, a full benefits package, and steady work on commercial projects across the country. Assistant Project Managers here are given real responsibility, direct mentorship from senior staff, and a defined route to Project Manager for those who earn it.
