AS-NEEDED PART TIME Construction Project Manager (Owner's Rep)

Job Description

Job Description

This position is based in the San Francisco Bay Area and is as-needed per-project with a flexible schedule.

The Opportunity

Bradac Co is looking for an experienced Project Manager to represent our clients' interests on design and construction projects across the Bay Area. This is a chance to work directly with an independent, principal-led construction management firm on a flexible, per-project basis — ideal for a seasoned professional who wants meaningful project work without the constraints of a traditional full-time role.

You'll act as the owner's eyes, ears, and advocate — protecting their budget, schedule, and vision from pre-construction through closeout, while building the kind of trusted relationships that keep projects moving and clients coming back.

Requirements: 5+ years of relevant experience, preferably on both large, complex builds and smaller, fast-turnaround projects.

What You'll Do ...

Represent the owner's interests, start to finish

• Serve as the primary point of accountability on behalf of the client, advocating for their priorities across the design and construction team
• Collaborate with owners, architects, engineers, and contractors to keep projects aligned with the client's vision, budget, and timeline
• Attend and help run OAC (owner-architect-contractor) meetings, driving clear agendas, decisions, and follow-up

Manage budget, schedule, and risk

• Create and maintain detailed cost tracking spreadsheets, cash flow projections, and project schedules
• Monitor progress against the approved program, budget, and schedule, and flag deviations early — before they become costly
• Review and analyze contracts, proposals, change orders, and invoices for completeness, accuracy, and proper documentation
• Identify project risks proactively and develop practical solutions, escalating only when necessary

Oversee quality and compliance

• Review construction drawings, submittals, and project documents to confirm compliance with the client's requirements and contract terms
• Hold the broader project team accountable for delivering to spec, on time, and on budget
• Conduct site visits and walk-throughs to monitor progress and workmanship

Coordinate people and moving parts

• Serve as the coordination hub between the client's internal stakeholders, external consultants, and the project team for all build-out related tasks
• Communicate project status, risks, and decisions clearly and proactively to all parties
• Support permitting, procurement, and vendor coordination as needed

What Makes You a Great Fit

• Background in architecture, construction project management for a GC, or MEP engineering
• 5+ years of hands-on experience building and tracking budgets and schedules
• A communicator first — you write clearly, speak confidently, and know how to keep a room aligned
• A proactive problem-solver who can manage multiple, multi-faceted projects at once without losing sight of the details
• Comfortable working independently, but genuinely enjoy being part of a team
• Solid grasp of construction industry best practices and standards
• Sharp attention to detail and a real sense of ownership over client outcomes
• Hungry to grow, take on more responsibility, and be challenged
