Assistant Project Manager

J.H. Findorff and Son, Inc.

As a Madison builder since 1890, Findorff is proud to deliver award-winning construction services to projects of all sizes in Dane County and beyond. We are driven by strong relationships, expert craftsmanship, and a deep commitment to the communities we serve.


What We Are Looking For

  • 3-5 years of experience in construction project management, field engineering, or estimating within commercial construction
  • Strong working knowledge of construction processes, building systems, and project sequencing
  • Experience supporting project financials, including budgeting, forecasting, and change management
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities with strong organization and attention to detail
  • Effective communication skills with the ability to collaborate across teams and build relationships with clients and partners
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office and Outlook with exposure to construction software such as CMiC, Bluebeam, Procore, or similar tools
What You'll Do

As an Assistant Project Manager with Findorff, you'll play a key role in supporting and leading construction projects from preconstruction through closeout. You'll continue building your technical knowledge while taking on increasing responsibility across project management, field coordination, and financial performance.
  • Support Project Execution: Assist in managing day-to-day project activities including RFIs, submittals, change orders, and document control to keep projects aligned with plans and specifications.
  • Contribute to Planning & Scheduling: Partner with Superintendents and Project Managers to develop and maintain project schedules, coordinate subcontractors, and support short-term planning efforts.
  • Drive Procurement & Contracts: Support bidding, subcontract preparation, and procurement efforts while helping manage contract compliance, insurance requirements, and issue resolution.
  • Manage Project Financials: Assist with budgeting, forecasting, cost tracking, and monthly reporting while supporting pay applications and change management processes.
  • Collaborate in the Field: Work closely with field teams to support material coordination, document updates, safety initiatives, and quality control processes.
  • Build Relationships & Lead: Develop strong working relationships with project teams, clients, architects, and trade partners while continuing to grow your leadership and communication skills.
Why Findorff
  • Employee-owned (ESOP) to build long-term wealth alongside your career
  • Local work with most projects within an hour of your main office
  • Stable, predictable backlog driven by long-term client relationships with over 90% of our work with repeat clients
  • Diverse portfolio to expand your experience across multiple market sectors
  • People-first culture grounded in respect, collaboration, and doing the right thing

Plus: competitive compensation, 401(k) + contributions, profit sharing, generous PTO, paid parental leave, onsite fitness center, heated parking, and strong career development support.
