Project Manager, Commercial Construction

Job Description

Build great projects. Build strong relationships. Build your career with MTLC.

MTLC Building Group is looking for an experienced Commercial Construction Project Manager to join our team. If you know how to keep projects moving, solve problems that may arise, and build strong relationships along the way, we’d like to meet you.

We’re looking for someone with a strong background in tenant build-outs, renovations, and small- to mid-sized ground-up construction who can confidently manage projects from preconstruction through closeout. (And if you’re a high performer in doing so, you’ll be especially interested in our bonus structure—one you’ve likely not seen.)

At MTLC, we’ve spent more than 10 years serving the commercial construction needs of clients throughout the Southeast, including restaurant, retail, health and wellness, and beyond. Much of our business comes from customers who choose to work with us again and again—and we think that says a lot about how we approach our work.

We take our projects seriously, but we also believe work should be enjoyable. Many of our team members have been with MTLC since the beginning, and we’ve built a culture around doing quality work, treating people well, and enjoying the people you work alongside.

How You’ll Make an Impact

As an MTLC Project Manager, you’ll take ownership of your projects and help lead them from preconstruction through completion. You’ll work closely with customers, architects, subcontractors, superintendents, and the MTLC team to keep projects on schedule, on budget, and moving in the right direction.

On a typical project, you’ll:

\n
• Manage commercial construction projects from preconstruction through closeout
\n
• Build strong relationships with customers and understand their plans, priorities, and expectations
\n
• Provide accurate estimates and prepare project budgets and bids
\n
• Thoroughly assess subcontractor bids
\n
• Develop project schedules, along with staging, logistics, and phasing plans
\n
• Coordinate with architects, subcontractors, vendors, and other project partners
\n
• Communicate daily with MTLC superintendents to stay ahead of project progress, performance, and potential issues
\n
• Monitor project financials and budgets throughout construction
\n
• Solve problems, manage conflicts, and keep projects moving forward
\n
• Deliver the level of service and quality that keeps customers coming back to MTLC
\n

Most importantly, you’ll represent MTLC’s customer-first approach by being professional, responsive, approachable, and someone our customers and partners enjoy working with.

Why You May Be a Great Fit

You may be a great fit for our team if you have:

\n
• Commercial construction experience, particularly in tenant finish/build-out and renovation projects
\n
• Experience independently managing projects from preconstruction through closeout
\n
• A solid understanding of project budgets and financials
\n
• The ability to read and understand architectural and MEP drawings
\n
• Strong leadership and decision-making skills
\n
• Excellent planning, organization, and time-management skills
\n
• Strong problem-solving and analytical abilities
\n
• Clear and professional written and verbal communication skills
\n
• An eye for details without losing sight of the bigger picture
\n
• The ability to juggle multiple priorities in a fast-paced construction environment
\n
• The ability to handle conflicts and challenges calmly and professionally
\n
• A willingness to receive feedback, continue learning, and grow with the company
\n
