• Serve as the primary client contact, providing regular updates, managing expectations, and ensuring customer satisfaction throughout the project lifecycle.
• Manage permitting, inspections, and regulatory compliance specific to restaurant and commercial construction, including health and safety standards.
• Review and control project documentation such as contracts, change orders, RFIs, submittals, and as-built drawings.
• Implement and enforce safety and quality control procedures on-site; coordinate with safety officers and ensure OSHA and local regulatory compliance.
• Resolve construction-related issues and conflicts quickly and effectively, making informed decisions and escalating when necessary.
• Conduct final walk-throughs, manage punch-lists, and ensure timely handover with complete documentation, warranties, and training for operations staff.

Qualifications

• Bachelors degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Architecture, Business, or related field, or equivalent experience.
• 5+ years of project management experience in commercial construction, with a strong preference for candidates who have led restaurant build-outs or hospitality projects.

• Familiarity with construction management software (e.g., Procore, Buildertrend) and scheduling tools (e.g., MS Project, Primavera) and strong proficiency in MS Office.
• Strong knowledge of building codes, health department requirements for restaurants, and construction safety standards (OSHA).
• Excellent communication, negotiation, and stakeholder-management skills, with the ability to present to clients and senior leadership.
• PMP, CCM, or equivalent project management certification is a plus; OSHA 10/30 or similar safety certification preferred.
• Ability to read and interpret construction drawings and specifications and to perform basic field measurements.
• Valid drivers license and willingness to travel to job sites as required.
