DEPARTMENT
Asset Management

Position Overview

As our Project Manager, you will manage owner-side capital improvements and renovation projects that strengthen our communities and support an exceptional resident experience. Reporting directly to the Director of Capital Projects, you will oversee multiple unit renovation programs and capital projects from early scope and budgeting through construction, turnover, and closeout. Working closely with property operations, contractors, consultants, inspectors, and senior leadership, you will keep projects organized, communicate clearly, solve problems early, and deliver high-quality work with strong attention to budget, schedule, safety, and the realities of construction in occupied apartment communities.

What You’ll Do

• Partner with Asset Management. Work closely with the Asset Management team to align each project with property and portfolio goals.
• Lead projects end to end. Manage multiple projects from initial scope and budgeting through construction, turnover, and closeout.
• Build clear project plans. Develop scopes of work, budgets, schedules, bid packages, procurement strategies, and logistics plans that set each project up for success.
• Oversee unit renovation programs. Manage renovation sequencing, finish standards, quality control, cost-per-unit tracking, and coordination with property operations and contractors.
• Maintain project financials. Review proposals, contracts, purchase orders, change orders, invoices, and pay applications while maintaining accurate budgets and forecasts.
• Keep project information current. Maintain schedules, records, cost details, and project documentation.
• Be present on site. Conduct regular site visits to monitor progress, workmanship, safety, resident impact, and compliance with the approved scope.
• Support occupied communities. Plan and communicate work in ways that minimize disruption and help property teams keep residents informed throughout the project.
• Travel and assist with property due diligence inspections; evaluate the overall physical condition of a property, identifying existing deficiencies, estimating capital expenditures and uncovering potential risks before acquisition.

What We’re Looking For

• At least 5 years of construction project management experience, including direct multifamily unit renovation experience.
• Experience managing construction in occupied apartment communities.
• Strong knowledge of budgeting, forecasting, scheduling, procurement, job costing, and change-order review.
• The ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines with limited supervision while staying organized, accountable, and responsive.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, sound judgment, and the ability to translate project details into clear updates and recommendations.
• Proficiency with Excel, Outlook, Teams, and construction management systems.
• A bachelor’s degree in construction management, engineering, architecture, real estate, or a related field is preferred. Relevant experience may substitute for a degree.
• A valid driver’s license and reliable transportation for regular travel between properties.

Work Environment and Physical Requirements

This is a fully remote role with regular travel to properties throughout the Richmond and Tidewater regions and occasional travel to Northern Virginia. Travel to other Bonaventure portfolio properties and for due diligence may be required as needed. Work is performed in home office settings, occupied apartment communities, and active construction areas. The role requires the ability to walk job sites, climb stairs and ladders when needed, stand for extended periods during inspections, and regularly lift or move materials, samples, and small equipment weighing up to 25 pounds and occasionally up to 50 pounds, with or without reasonable accommodation. Occasional early-morning, evening, or emergency availability may be required based on project needs.
