Job Description

Project Manager – Commercial Construction

Location: Rhode Island / Southeastern Massachusetts Region
Salary: $95,000 – $130,000 + strong benefits + growth opportunity

A well-respected construction management firm is seeking a Project Manager to join its growing team. This is an excellent opportunity for someone with 5–10 years of experience who wants to take ownership of meaningful projects while working for a company that is small enough to know your name, but established enough to compete on major work.

This firm delivers projects across commercial, academic, life sciences, industrial, hospitality, and retail markets throughout the Northeast. Their size creates agility, strong internal communication, and less bureaucracy—while their reputation and client base create access to high-profile, technically interesting projects.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Small company feel, big project exposure
  Work directly with leadership and make a visible impact on major projects.
• Strong compensation & benefits
  Competitive base salary, benefits, and long-term career upside.
• Room to grow
  Leadership values people who want more responsibility and advancement.
• Diverse project portfolio
  Commercial interiors, life sciences, industrial, hospitality, academic, and more.
• Collaborative culture
  Team-oriented environment where effort and ideas are recognized.

Key Responsibilities

• Manage projects from preconstruction through closeout
• Coordinate subcontractors, vendors, consultants, and internal teams
• Develop and maintain project schedules and budgets
• Track procurement, submittals, RFIs, and change orders
• Lead client meetings and maintain strong communication throughout the project lifecycle
• Monitor quality, safety, and schedule performance
• Identify and resolve project challenges proactively
• Ensure projects are delivered on time and within budget

Qualifications

• 5–10 years of experience in commercial construction project management
• Experience managing vertical building projects from start to finish
• Strong knowledge of scheduling, budgeting, and subcontractor coordination
• Excellent communication and organizational skills
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment and manage multiple priorities
• Degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or related field preferred

Ideal Candidate

You’re someone who wants more than just a title. You want responsibility, visibility, and the chance to help build projects that matter with a company where your work is noticed.

If you’ve been at a larger firm and want less red tape—or at a smaller firm and want bigger projects—this could be the right move.
