The Role: Senior Construction Project Manager

As Senior PM, you will serve as the owner's representative on the ground, acting as the trusted extension of our client's internal team. You'll be their eyes, their advocate, and their expert across all facets of construction. This is not a GC or developer role .

This is a high-visibility position with direct exposure to client executives and real ownership of outcomes.

• Assembly, procurement, and leadership of full project teams on the client's behalf: architects, engineers, GCs, and specialty contractors

• Mentorship and management of up to two internal PMs or project engineers

• Change order review and negotiation, invoicing oversight, TI allowance reimbursement, and project closeout, all from the owner's perspective

• Lease and Work Letter review for construction-related provisions in coordination with the brokerage team

• Ongoing collaboration with advisors and client stakeholders as project requirements evolve
