By Landmark is a New Jersey-based hospitality company, headquartered in Plainfield, NJ, that owns and operates a portfolio of restaurants, boutique hotels, and event venues. We are defined by an unwavering commitment to quality, craft, and guest experience — values that extend to every project we take on.

What sets us apart is our in-house team of master craftsmen — tradespeople with 10 to 25 years of tenure spanning plumbing, electrical, HVAC, fire suppression/sprinkler, and related disciplines. We self-perform our construction work because we believe the best projects are built by people who take genuine pride in what they create.

We operate as a family. Our longest-tenured team members have grown with us, and we invest in the people who invest in us. We are looking for someone who shares that mindset: a professional who takes ownership, invests in the people around them, and wants to grow with an organization that will invest equally in them.

This is a newly created position — part of a deliberate effort to formalize and strengthen how By Landmark manages its construction program as the company grows and enters a new phase of expansion. Where project oversight was previously handled through a combination of ownership involvement and informal coordination, we are now building out a dedicated team structure to match the scale and ambition of our pipeline.

The two Project Manager roles being created — this in-house operations position and a parallel role focused on third-party construction oversight — are designed to work in concert, with shared accountability to the Chief Construction Officer and Director of Development, and a common standard of excellence across all project delivery.

By Landmark is not a developer that builds to sell, and not a contractor working on behalf of an outside owner — we are the end user. We purchase the real estate, take it through entitlement and design, build it ourselves, open it, and then operate it as part of our own portfolio — often for decades. That full-lifecycle ownership is what sets this role apart from a typical construction PM position: the material choices, sequencing decisions, and systems selections made on site are made by the same organization that will run the finished asset.

This Project Manager will be involved across that full arc — from pre-construction planning through delivery, Certificate of Occupancy, opening, and the transition into day-to-day operations.

We are seeking an experienced and driven Project Manager to join the By Landmark family and lead our in-house operations. This individual will own end-to-end project execution — from pre-construction planning through delivery and Certificate of Occupancy — ensuring every project meets design intent, brand standards, and operational timelines. As the primary point of accountability across all active projects — capital expenditure programs, asset remodels, expansions, and renovations — this person will work hand-in-hand with our seasoned craftsmen and report directly to the Principal.

The role is based at our Plainfield, NJ headquarters with approximately 50% of time spent in the field.

The In-House Operations Project Manager is responsible for planning, coordinating, and delivering all construction and renovation projects executed by By Landmark's in-house trades team. This role demands someone equally comfortable reviewing pre-construction drawings as walking a job site with a plumber or electrician. Given that many of our projects are hospitality and guest-facing environments, a deep understanding of finishes — materials, millwork, tile, stone, paint, and FF&E — is essential;

the right candidate will have a practiced eye for quality and know how to hold a team accountable to design intent at the…
