Chelsea Piekarski.

Salary: $110,000 - $163,000 per year.

Open due to an internal promotion.

This Senior Project Manager oversees a portfolio of concurrent projects, including the most complex and highest-risk work in the line of business, and provides leadership, coaching, and performance oversight to Project Managers and Assistant Project Managers. The role is distinguished from the Project Manager level by portfolio responsibility, formal oversight of other PMs, and accountability for elevating the project management function.

We are a national commercial and industrial construction contractor operating inside a larger publicly traded organization founded nearly a century ago. Our specialty exteriors group self-performs roofing and siding work for commercial and industrial clients nationwide, sitting alongside sister lines in insulation and scaffolding that we collaborate with daily. You get the resources and stability of a large parent with the decision speed and visibility of a small shop.

Tenure here is long: our project management leadership has been with us well over a decade, and this role exists only because the person in it was promoted into a director role on another business line. We recently landed a significant volume of new national work and are hiring ahead of that growth rather than behind it.

• 20% annual incentive on top of base that has historically paid at target and can run higher — there has never been a year with no payout
• Broad autonomy and decision-making authority over project finances, schedule, and scope
• Publicly traded parent with an Employee Stock Purchase Plan, profit sharing, and 401(k) match, so your upside isn't limited to base and bonus

• Day-to-day flexibility inside an onsite-collaborative culture (shared calendar for work-from-home days) with light travel, roughly 2-3 days a month

• Invest genuinely in the development, wellbeing, and success of every team member, and build a culture that supports the vision, values, strategy, and business objectives of the organization
• Formally develop, coach, and provide performance feedback to Project Managers and Assistant Project Managers in project management methodology, customer and client relationship development, P&L ownership, and the technical skills needed to lead projects
• Own talent strategy for the project management team, including project managers and construction managers; expand the team's capabilities by establishing best practices, policies, and processes, and lead hiring decisions for new team members
• Partner with the Director of Field Operations and field leadership to drive best-in-class project execution with safety first in every decision
• Lead lessons-learned and continuous improvement initiatives that shape how the PM team operates

• Manage and execute multi-million dollar or multi-phase projects of high complexity and high risk
• Manage project load using established project selection criteria and balance project management resources across the team
• Plan and execute projects to meet safety, quality, productivity, schedule, budget, and profitability targets, conducting planning reviews before, during, and after each project
• Identify project changes that impact cost, schedule, or labor; ensure change orders are issued, negotiated, and processed accurately and on time
• Forecast and manage staffing, manpower, and crew mix to optimize productivity and support long-range project planning
• Gather and report project data supporting site supervision, project management, leadership, and audit compliance
• Own project financial health by monitoring billings, collections, cash…
