You're already an experienced Crew Chief. You know how to run jobs. You know how to dry structures. You know how to remediate mold. You know how to lead technicians. Now you're ready for more responsibility.

At Voda Cleaning & Restoration, our Restoration Field Project Managers don't sit behind a desk.

They inspect losses, determine the proper remediation protocol, develop detailed field scopes for our estimating team, lead restoration crews, perform the work alongside their technicians, communicate with homeowners and insurance professionals, and ensure every project is completed safely, efficiently, and professionally.

If you've been looking for an opportunity to lead projects—not just work on them—this could be the career move you've been waiting for.

You'll own restoration projects from the initial inspection through completion.
