Assistant Project Manager - Commercial Construction

A nimble, tech-forward general contractor is scaling its nationwide footprint of ground-up and retrofit projects — ranging from quick service-center refreshes to multimillion‑dollar distribution hubs. To keep pace, the team needs a hands‑on Project Manager Associate who can steer budgets, schedules, and stakeholder communication from pre‑con through closeout. If you thrive in fast-moving, less‑structured environments where your ideas reach executive ears the same day, this role is for you.

• Company‑paid medical, dental, vision, and life insurance, plus generous PTO.
• Direct access to the founder and a ten‑person leadership team — your impact is visible, not buried in red tape.
• Exposure to a diverse project mix (retail, logistics, healthcare, industrial) and a modern Microsoft‑based tech stack.
• Culture of accountability, autonomy, and continuous improvement — perfect for people who “own” their work.

• Scope & Budget Launch — Partner with senior PMs to set preliminary budgets, schedules, and procurement paths for projects ranging from rapid renovations to $8 M ground‑ups.
• Daily Coordination — Liaise with superintendents, subcontractors, and client contacts to keep materials, permits, and information flowing ahead of the critical path.
• Cost & Document Control — Maintain cloud‑based trackers for commitments, RFIs, change orders, and site photos‑ ensuring executives and clients always have accurate, real‑time data.
• Bid Leveling & Awards — Compile and compare subcontractor proposals, highlight scope gaps, and draft clear award recommendations.
• Meeting Cadence — Drive kickoff, progress, and closeout sessions, capture action items, and close loops quickly.
• Process Innovation — Jump into special projects like building SOPs, cost databases, or template libraries that help the whole company work smarter.

• 3+ years in commercial construction with a GC or design‑build firm, including estimating, coordination, or APM duties.
• Proven comfort working from limited drawings/permits — resourceful, not reliant on perfection.
• Strong communicator who treats vendors like customers and follows through without prompting.
• Proficient with Excel and modern construction‑management/estimating platforms.
• Grit, professionalism, and solid tenure — candidates seeking long‑term growth in an in‑office role will excel.
