You’re the kind of Construction Project Manager who thrives in the field, works well alongside a Superintendent, and keeps clients informed and confident throughout the construction process.

You are organized, responsive, and comfortable managing the moving parts that happen once a project breaks ground. You understand that strong project management during construction means clear communication, accurate billing, proactive problem-solving, and making sure nothing falls through the cracks.

You enjoy collaborating with the Superintendent to keep projects moving toward completion, while also serving as the primary point of contact for the homeowner on coordination items, updates, changes, and financial matters.

You’re calm under pressure, detail-oriented, and comfortable having direct conversations when issues arise. You take ownership of your responsibilities, follow through on commitments, and understand that the ultimate goal is to deliver a successful project with as few surprises and unnecessary change orders as possible.

• Support punch-list coordination, inspections, final documentation, and project closeout.

• Achieving Certificate of Occupancy as efficiently as possible.
• Maintaining strong, consistent client communication.
