Project Manager - Ground-Up / Core & Shell

New York, NY | On-site | Full-time | General Contractor

$150,000 – $195,000

A New York general contractor is hiring a Project Manager who can build a building. Ground-up and core & shell. Not a tenant fit-out seat dressed up as a PM job.

THE WORK

New buildings and core & shell: structure, envelope, and the base building systems that make the thing stand up and take tenants later. GC side. You own the job with the superintendent, not from a spreadsheet only.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

- Run the project from buyout through topping out, envelope, and core & shell turnover

- Own budget, schedule, procurement, and change control on lump-sum / GMP building work

- Coordinate structure, facade, and base-building MEP with the super, trades, architect, and engineer

- Keep DOB, inspections, and building logistics moving in New York

- Close the job clean: as-builts, punch, commissioning support, and a building that is actually done

WHO THIS IS FOR

- Project Manager with a general contractor, not an interiors-only or owner’s-rep-only resume

- Ground-up and/or core & shell on the page. You have delivered a building, not only a floor

- You read drawings, buy the right scopes, and know what the structure and skin are supposed to look like in the field

- NYC or equivalent dense-city building experience is the preference

- Procore (or similar), Bluebeam, and a resume that names the buildings

WHO THIS IS NOT

- TI/interiors PM with no ground-up or core & shell

- PE who has never owned a job

- CM agency/owner’s rep who has not run the work for a GC

- Anyone whose largest “building” is a renovation inside someone else’s shell

PAY

Base $150,000–$195,000, depending on ground-up GC time and the size of buildings you have run. Bigger buildings and a true senior sit higher.
