Position:Construction Project Manager

Department:Management (FOFM)

Location: On-Site – Resort Development Program

Industry: Hospitality / Construction / Facilities Management

Reports to: President

Type:Full-Time

We are seeking an on-site Construction Project Manager to lead the planning, execution, and delivery of projects ranging from $750,000 to $10 million. This role sits at the intersection of precision construction management and elevated hospitality design — and demands someone who thrives in both worlds.

You will be present on site every day, working directly alongside a Field Superintendent who owns field execution. While the Superintendent leads boots‑on‑the‑ground trade coordination, you own the budget, schedule, subcontractor contracts, and design coordination. Together, you are the leadership team that takes each project from contract execution through a clean closeout.

Reporting directly to the President, you serve as the primary link between the President’s development vision and field reality. You will also act as General Contractor on select projects. Our builds are defined by strong artistic design intent — you must be as comfortable discussing millwork and FF&E as you are reviewing MEP submittals or managing a concrete pour.

• Interpret architectural and design drawings to develop detailed scopes of work across all trades — structural, MEP, millwork, and FF&E
• Lead the buyout process: solicit bids, level scopes, and award subcontracts in coordination with the President
• Establish the project budget baseline, cost tracking structure, and master schedule
• Confirm drawings and specifications are construction‑ready before issuing to the field; identify gaps or conflicts early
• Lead project kick‑off meetings, establish site protocols, and align all stakeholders on expectations from day one

• Serve as General Contractor on designated projects — taking full ownership of subcontractor coordination, site safety, and on‑time delivery
• Work on‑site daily alongside the Field Superintendent; hold the field team accountable to quality and schedule
• Conduct regular site inspections to verify work meets design intent, specifications, and quality standards
• Resolve trade conflicts quickly and decisively to minimize downtime and rework
• Lead weekly project meetings with the Superintendent and key subcontractors

• Own project budgets from inception to closeout — tracking expenditures, forecasting costs, and reporting financial status to the President
• Review and approve all subcontractor pay applications against work in place, in coordination with the Superintendent
• Price, negotiate, and execute all change orders with subcontractors — documented and approved before work is performed
• Build and maintain advanced Excel‑based budget models, cost projections, and dashboards that provide real‑time financial visibility
• Forecast cost at completion continuously; flag budget risks early with proposed mitigation

• Own and maintain the master project schedule; identify and proactively manage the critical path
• Review the Superintendent’s 3‑week look‑ahead weekly to ensure alignment with the master schedule
• Manage the RFI and submittal log: track, submit to the design team, and distribute responses to the field promptly
• Maintain the current drawing and specification set — ensure the Superintendent always has the latest issued‑for‑construction documents
• Communicate schedule impacts to the President promptly, with a recovery plan attached
• Serve as the contractual point of contact for all subcontractors
• Solicit, evaluate, and award bids to qualified subcontractors; negotiate contracts, scopes, and pricing to protect project margins
• Enforce cost controls and hold subcontractors accountable to schedule milestones and quality standards
• Address subcontractor claims, disputes, or performance issues; elevate significant failures to the President with a recommended course of action
• Manage FF&E and millwork procurement,…
