Construction Project Manager

At Paryani Construction, we are more than just builders; we are partners. We pride ourselves on a “Client First” approach, delivering complex construction projects with the sophistication of a large national firm and the agility of a boutique builder. Based in Atlanta, our portfolio spans high‑stakes Healthcare, Industrial, Commercial, and Retail projects, with a growing book of Government and Institutional work delivered through traditional hard‑bid, CM‑at‑Risk, and Task Order Contract (TOC/JOC) procurement vehicles. We view the Project Manager as the CEO of their project. We trust you to run the job, own the outcome, and represent Paryani to our clients. Position Summary We are seeking an experienced Project Manager to lead commercial and government construction projects from preconstruction through closeout. You will be the single point of accountability for project performance — scope, schedule, budget, quality, safety, and client satisfaction. You will lead a cross‑functional team of Superintendents, Project Engineers, subcontractors, and design partners to deliver projects that protect Paryani’s reputation and margin. This role is ideal for a PM who wants ownership and visibility — not someone who wants to be one of fifty PMs at a large firm. You will work directly with executive leadership, have a seat at the table on pursuit decisions, and have a clear path to senior leadership. Total Project Ownership: Serve as the primary point of contact for the client, design team, and internal team from contract award through warranty period. Client Relationships: Build trust‑based relationships with owners, owner’s representatives, and end users. Anticipate client needs and communicate proactively — no surprises. Public Sector Compliance: For government and institutional projects — including Task Order Contracts (TOCs), Job Order Contracts (JOCs), IDIQ vehicles, and traditional public bids — ensure full compliance with contract requirements, prevailing wage where applicable, EEO/MBE/WBE participation goals, bonding, and jurisdictional reporting. Budget Ownership: Own the project budget from buyout through final accounting. Maintain accurate cost‑to‑complete forecasts and protect margin throughout the job. Buyout: Lead the subcontractor and vendor buyout process. Scope bids rigorously, negotiate favorable terms, and award contracts that align with the estimate. Change Management: Identify, price, and process change orders promptly. Maintain a clean change order log and never let work proceed without authorization. Billings & Cash Flow: Prepare monthly pay applications (AIA G702/G703 or owner‑specific formats). Manage subcontractor billings and ensure positive project cash flow. WIP Reporting: Provide accurate monthly inputs to the Work‑in‑Progress schedule, including cost‑to‑complete, projected margin, and any underbilling/overbilling. Schedule & Execution Master Schedule: Develop and maintain the project Master Schedule (MS Project or Primavera P6). Drive the team to hit milestones and recover schedule when slippage occurs. Field Partnership: Work hand‑in‑hand with the Superintendent. The Super runs the field; you run the business of the project. Together, you own the outcome. Submittals & RFIs: Oversee the document control process managed by the Project Engineer. Engage personally on critical‑path submittals and complex RFIs. Contract Mastery: Know your prime contract cold — notice provisions, schedule milestones, liquidated damages, allowances, and closeout requirements. Risk Identification: Identify project risks early (design gaps, long‑lead items, subcontractor capacity, site conditions) and develop mitigation strategies. Documentation: Maintain a defensible project record. Document decisions, directives, and impacts in writing. Mentorship: Develop your Project Engineers and Assistant PMs. Your success is measured in part by the people you grow. Closeout: Drive the project to a clean closeout — punch list, O&M manuals, warranties, as‑builts, and final retainage release. Don’t let projects linger. Qualifications Education: Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, Architecture, or a related field. Experience: 5+ years of project management experience on commercial construction projects ($2M–$20M+ range). Experience with government, municipal, or institutional clients (City, County, State, K‑12, higher education, healthcare systems) strongly preferred. Certifications: PMP, CCM, DBIA, or LEED AP a plus. OSHA 30 preferred. Technical Skills: Proficiency in Procore (or comparable CM platform), Bluebeam Revu, MS Project or Primavera P6, and MS Excel. Comfort with AIA contract documents and pay app workflows. Financial Acumen: Ability to read a job cost report, understand margin erosion, and forecast cost‑to‑complete with discipline. You should be as comfortable in a budget meeting as you are in an OAC meeting. Public Sector Delivery (preferred): Familiarity with public bidding procedures and alternative delivery vehicles, including Task Order Contracts (TOC), Job Order Contracts (JOC), IDIQ, and CM‑at‑Risk. Working knowledge of federal/state/local procurement rules, prevailing wage, and DBE/MBE/WBE compliance. Communication: Excellent written and verbal communication. You will write to owners, attorneys, architects, and subcontractor presidents — sometimes in the same day. Judgment: Sound business judgment, the willingness to make a decision with imperfect information, and the discipline to escape when appropriate. Physical Demands & Work Environment Hybrid Role: Work is split between the corporate office and active job sites. Mobility: Must be able to walk job sites, climb temporary stairs/ladders, and wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). Travel: Primarily local to metro Atlanta; occasional travel within Georgia. Why Paryani? Ownership: You run your project. You’re not a cog in a machine — you’re the CEO of your job. Visibility: You’ll work directly with our executive team. Strong performance leads to senior PM, Project Executive, and equity‑track opportunities. Pipeline: A growing book of government, healthcare, and institutional work — delivered through hard‑bid, CM‑at‑Risk, and Task Order Contract vehicles — means a clear path to bigger, more complex projects. Compensation: Competitive salary, performance and project‑completion bonuses, vehicle allowance, and comprehensive benefits (Medical, Dental, Vision, 401k).

All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, age, national origin, disability, or genetic information. #J-18808-Ljbffr Paryani Construction
