POSITION TITLE:

Project Manager (TWO positions open) (construction industry)

Founded in 2001, Coor Italia is a growing Architectural Products supplier, based in San Francisco. It has two divisions, 1-Windows & Doors and 2-Architectural Elements.

We seek a Project Manager for each division.

1-Project Manager/Windows & Doors (PMWD):
The Windows & Doors division supplies steel, bronze, aluminum and wood windows and doors for high-end residential and commercial construction projects throughout the USA. The products are custom-made in Europe for the end user.

This position requires extensive fenestration knowledge. Ideally, this person will work daily in the SF office, but also could work remotely, and must be within an hour’s drive or flight to the SF office.

2-Project Manager Architectural Elements (PMAE):
The Architectural Elements Division supplies architectural products in stone, clay, wood and iron for residential and commercial construction projects. The products are custom-made in Europe. The PMAE will work daily in the SF office.

Coor Italia has many years of experience in working with the client, architect, designer, artisan and builder as a team, balancing the design vision, with construction specifications. Our Mission is to seamlessly tie the client, architect, designer, artisan and builder into one, and our strength isknowing the requirements of each,so we can ensure every project’s success.

Not only does Coor Italia provide materials, but we can also help develop and realize the whole project. Our success comes from listening to design inputs; understanding construction constraints; coordinating suppliers; and achieving goals within our client’s budget. We are proud of working directly with the quarries. This way, we have a direct relationship with our suppliers, and we can import everything ourselves and eliminate the middlemen.

Knowing the countries and the people where we source our materials from, we give each project the unique and true European craftsman touch.

Due to our continued growth, our sales team needs two dedicated Project Managers, whose primary tasks will be managing projects: from the early shop drawing phase, though manufacturing, delivery and post-installation support. You will work in a fast environment, with lots of demands on your time. We are looking for someone who thrives with energy, but can also maintain concentration, detail orientation, and accuracy, in the process.

These are salaried/exempt, full time positions, with benefits.

You will form a cohesive unit with the sales team, analyzing client requests from business development, attending meetings, contacting: vendors, builders, contractors, architects (all parties involved in the project), supporting quote preparation, and, when projects are won, following the projects through all phases, including design, production, shipping delivery and post installation support.

Our salespeople are in both northern and southern California, so there will be some day travel to either location, visiting the sales office and/or job sites.

Primary responsibilities:

• Assist business development in securing project opportunities by attending meetings with architects and contractors.

• Perform product presentations in our San Francisco showroom, if business development people are not available.

• Perform accurate take-offs from architectural blueprints and building plans.

• Interpret architectural specifications.

• Assist, if required, in generating materials lists and vendor pricing requests, transfer the pricing received into a client proposal for the sales team.

• Once a project is won, you will take possession of management of the project, and in collaboration with business development, you will:

• Drive the architect/contractor meetings gathering final specifications.

• Coordinate with our European manufacturers, for timely production of shop drawings.

• Conduct careful and detailed analysis, that shop drawings provided follow client requirements

• Drive submittals, redraws, and final sign-off of shop drawings.

• Follow-up on…
