Job Description & How to Apply Below

We’re partnering with Skilled Services LLC
, a trusted leader in the redesign, renewal, and construction of commercial and industrial facilities. As their project portfolio continues to grow, they’re looking for a Senior Project Manager to lead multiple projects, protect margin, and drive operational excellence from kickoff through closeout.

Why You’ll Love This Role
  • Lead complex commercial and industrial projects in the $2M–$5M range
  • Own full project lifecycle — from buyout through closeout
  • Directly impact profitability, schedule performance, and client satisfaction
  • Work with an accountable, high-performance team
  • Join a growing organization where strong operators are valued and empowered

If you’re a disciplined construction leader who thrives in accountability and has a proven system for delivering projects on time and on budget, this is your opportunity to step into a true leadership role.

The Role

The Senior Project Manager will take full ownership of multiple active construction projects, ensuring strong cost control, schedule discipline, subcontractor management, and execution excellence.

This role is ideal for an experienced project leader who:

  • Protects margin without excuses
  • Has a clear system for schedule recovery
  • Runs clean buyouts
  • Anticipates risk before it impacts performance
  • Can confidently explain why a job is winning — or where it’s eroding
Key Responsibilities
  • Lead multiple concurrent projects valued at $2M–$5M
  • Drive on-time, on-budget delivery using disciplined schedule and cost controls
  • Manage subcontractors, field labor, sequencing, and manpower planning
  • Take direct accountability for buyouts and project closeout

    Identify margin erosion risks early and implement recovery plans
  • Partner with field leadership and executive team to ensure project success
Baseline Requirements (Non-Negotiable)
  • 10+ years of total construction experience
  • 5+ years leading projects in the $2M–$5M range
  • Documented history of managing multiple active projects simultaneously
  • Direct accountability for subcontractors, labor planning, buyouts, and closeout
  • Demonstrated manpower planning and sequencing expertise
Strong Differentiators
  • Ability to clearly articulate causes of margin erosion
  • Defined personal system for schedule recovery
  • Defined personal system for project buyout
  • Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or related field (preferred)
  • PMP certification
  • Lean Construction or Last Planner exposure
  • OSHA 30 certification

If you’re a Senior Project Manager who takes ownership, protects profitability, and leads from the front, this is an opportunity to make a meaningful impact within a growing and respected construction organization.
We welcome your application and look forward to connecting with you.
