Position Summary The Assistant Project Manager (APM) supports the Project Manager and project leadership team in the day-to-day administration and execution of concrete scopes on our active data center project in South Hill, VA. Based out of our South Hill office, the APM is the backbone of project documentation and coordination — keeping submittals, RFIs, procurement, and quality records moving so the field can stay productive. This is a development role for someone who wants to learn the business from the ground up and grow into a full Project Manager. The APM works closely with field leadership, our QC team, ready-mix and testing partners, and the general contractor to deliver clean, well-documented, on-schedule concrete work. Core Duties & Responsibilities The APM partners with the Project Manager to keep the project organized and the paperwork ahead of the work. Primary responsibilities include: Project administration: Maintain accurate, up-to-date project records in Procore, including drawings, specifications, ASIs, RFIs, submittals, and change documentation.
