Our culture is built around accountability, collaboration, and a genuine passion for the work - and we're growing our team with people who share those values.

What You'll Be Doing: We're searching for a Project Manager who brings both technical chops and a people-first mindset to the table. In this role, you won't just be managing timelines and budgets - you'll be the connective tissue between our clients, field teams, and project stakeholders. If you're someone who leads with energy, communicates with confidence, and finds as much satisfaction in building great teams as you do in delivering great projects, this is the opportunity for you.

Your Day-to-Day Responsibilities:

• Oversee all phases of commercial drywall projects from preconstruction planning through final close-out.
• Build and manage detailed project schedules, keeping crews aligned and milestones on track.
• Monitor and control project costs, identifying opportunities for efficiency without sacrificing quality.
• Serve as the primary liaison for clients, architects, and subcontractors - delivering responsive, professional service at every touchpoint.
• Anticipate potential project risks and develop proactive mitigation strategies before issues escalate.
• Conduct regular site visits to assess progress, support field teams, and maintain a cohesive, motivated crew.
• Coach and develop project staff, modeling a high-performance, solution-focused culture.
• Ensure thorough project documentation and full compliance with applicable safety and quality standards.

What You Bring:

• Communication & Relationship Skills: You build trust quickly, communicate clearly, and thrive in a team-driven environment with multiple moving parts.
• Industry Experience: 4+ years managing projects in commercial construction - experience in drywall or related specialty trades strongly preferred.
• Leadership That Sticks: A track record of leading crews with purpose - driving accountability, morale, and results through effective mentorship.
• Technical Proficiency: Hands-on experience with project management platforms, estimating tools, scheduling software, and project documentation.
• Client Focus: You understand what clients need before they have to ask, and you consistently deliver value that builds long-term relationships.
• Flexibility Under Pressure: You adapt quickly when project conditions shift and keep your team steady when things get complex.

We offer a competitive compensation package, strong benefits, and access to some of the most dynamic commercial construction projects in the country.
