About Building Blocks Facades Building Blocks Facades is a vertically integrated facade company. We design, engineer, manufacture, and install complex GFRC, UHPC, and specialty facade systems for commercial construction projects that most contractors will not take on. Vertical integration is the point. Because we control design coordination, fabrication, logistics, and field installation under one roof, we can protect architectural intent while giving clients cost, schedule, and quality certainty that a fragmented supply chain cannot. It also means our project teams see the whole system rather than one slice of it.

WHY THIS ROLE EXISTS

A Project Manager Carrying a Full Portfolio Cannot Also Chase Every Submittal, Update Every Log, And Track Every Purchase Order. When That Work Slips, Schedule And Margin Slip With It. The Assistant Project Manager Exists To Protect Three Things Execution momentum: deliverables, submittals, RFIs, and procurement moving on schedule, with nothing aging quietly in a log. Commercial clarity: budgets, commitments, billing, and change documentation kept current, so the Project Manager decides on accurate numbers. Early warning: risks, schedule gaps, and coordination conflicts surfaced while there is still time to act. This is not a passive support role. You will operate with ownership, urgency, and precision from contract award through installation. It is also the path to running your own projects: the work you own here is the work a Project Manager owns at full scale. What You Will Own Project Coordination and Schedule A detailed project schedule that keeps engineering, fabrication, logistics, and field installation aligned. Tracking of deliverables, milestones, submittals, RFIs, and procurement activity so nothing misses its date. Coordination conflicts and schedule gaps identified and driven to resolution, not just reported. Documentation and Communication Meeting agendas, minutes, and action logs issued promptly, with owners and dates on every item. Accurate, organized project documentation across our internal systems. A reliable communication bridge between design, engineering, operations, finance, and external stakeholders. Issues escalated early with a proposed solution. Surprises are the enemy of execution. Financial and Commercial Support Budget tracking and cost forecasting support, with monthly cost reporting that matches actuals. Change order documentation drafted as scope changes emerge, before the work is performed. Monthly billing support, including pay application backup and cost reporting. Purchase orders and subcontractor commitments monitored so the financial picture stays clear. Field and Installation Support Fabrication and delivery schedules aligned with what the site actually needs. Participation in jobsite coordination meetings as required. Installation progress tracked against schedule, with site constraints helped to resolution. Process Improvement Workflow inefficiencies identified and improvements proposed, in line with High Velocity and Intense Focus. Clear responsibilities, timelines, and deliverables across the project team. Required

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

Three to seven years of experience in construction project management, facade contracting, or related commercial construction. Strong understanding of construction documentation, submittals, RFIs, scheduling, and cost tracking. Ability to read and interpret architectural and structural drawings and specifications. Proficiency with project management and scheduling software (Procore, MS Project, Primavera, or equivalent) and Microsoft 365. Exceptional organization, attention to detail, and clear written and verbal communication. Preferred Working knowledge of GFRC, UHPC, curtain wall, or other high-performance facade systems. Experience with a specialty subcontractor or fabricator that controlled both fabrication and installation. Exposure to change order management, billing, and cost forecasting. A construction management, engineering, or architecture degree, or equivalent experience. Who This Role Is Not For We would rather be direct now than waste your time. If you want a role where you take notes and wait for direction, this is not it. We expect you to drive items to closure. If you prefer to report problems rather than bring a proposed solution, this is not the environment. If detailed logs, schedules, and documentation feel like busywork, you will struggle here. They are how projects stay on track. If you want to stay in an office, note that this role regularly spends time on job sites and in the plant. Compensation And Benefits We offer a competitive base salary commensurate with experience. Compensation is discussed openly early in the process so neither side wastes time. Florida has no state income tax, which is worth factoring into any comparison you are running. Building Blocks is an Equal Opportunity Employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to any characteristic protected by applicable federal, state, or local law. #J-18808-Ljbffr Council on Vertical Urbanism (CVU) - Australia Chapter
