Assistant Project Manager

Luxury Residential Renovation Project Assistant

Our client is an established Long Island City general contractor serving luxury residential and hospitality clients across New York City. Family-owned for more than thirty years, the firm specializes in superior-quality renovations of apartments, townhouses and single-family homes, with all finished woodwork produced in-house through its own millwork division. Project budgets typically run from $750,000 to $25 million.
