The base salary range for this position is $135,000 to $140,000, excluding benefits, bonuses, or other compensation. Final compensation will be determined based on experience, qualifications, project management expertise, and internal pay equity. Please note that hiring at the top of the range is uncommon to allow room for future salary growth.

I think this is a particularly compelling posting because it emphasizes leadership, ownership, and career growth rather than simply listing administrative project management duties. Those themes tend to resonate well with experienced commercial construction Project Managers in the $135K to $140K compensation range.
