Project Manager Development

The Project Manager, Development role will support the delivery of both new construction and renovation/capital improvement projects across our portfolio of military housing communities. This role reports directly to the VP of Development and will manage projects end-to-end, from design and entitlement through construction and closeout, coordinating architects, engineers, general contractors, and internal stakeholders to ensure projects are delivered on time, on budget, and to HMC's quality standards.

• Manages ground-up development projects from entitlement/design through construction and closeout.
• Supports due diligence, entitlement, permitting, and pre-construction planning for new development opportunities.
• Coordinates architects, civil/structural engineers, superintendents, and general contractors through design development, GMP/bid, and construction phases.
• Tracks construction progress against schedule, problem solves when needs arise, and identifies critical-path risks early and makes recommendations to streamline and remedy the deficiencies.
• Manages the CPM schedule review and validation — critical path analysis, logic auditing, time impact analysis, and float ownership.
• Independent cost estimating — quantity takeoffs, GMP reconciliation, buyout tracking, contingency management, independently pricing change orders rather than accepting GC pricing.
• Supports construction lender and investor draw processes, coordination with third-party inspectors, and rapport-building with bondholders.

• Oversees rehab scopes across HMC's existing housing portfolio, including whole-home renovations, system replacements, and capital improvement plans.
• Coordinates logistics unique to renovation work in an occupied military housing environment (move-outs, temporary lodging, phased turnover schedules).
• Develops and maintains project schedules, budgets, and scopes of work; proactively flags risks and variances to the VP of Development.
• Serves as the primary point of coordination between architects, engineers, general contractors, and internal HMC stakeholders (property management, asset management, procurement).
• Manages the bid, contract, and change-order processes for assigned projects.
• Conducts regular site visits and progress inspections; documents and reports on construction quality and milestone completion.
• Tracks and reports project financials, including draw requests, invoicing, and budget-to-actual reconciliation.
• Ensures compliance with military installation requirements, base access protocols, and applicable building codes/regulations.
• Coordinates with the military housing office and installation leadership as needed on project timing and resident impact.
• Prepares project status reports and presentations for leadership and stakeholder reviews monthly, quarterly, and annually.
• Maintains organized project documentation (contracts, drawings, submittals, RFIs, closeout documents).

• Bachelor's Degree from an accredited college or university with a focus in engineering, construction, or a related discipline, or a demonstrated equivalent proficiency preferred.

• 4-6 years of project management experience, with demonstrated, hands-on experience in both new construction and renovation/rehab projects (not renovation-only or new-build-only background) required.
• Experience managing residential (multifamily or single-family) construction projects…
