Assistant Project Manager II

Can You Herd Cats... While Building Manufacturing Facilities? Let's be honest. Construction isn't for people who like predictable days. One minute you're reviewing submittals. The next you're solving a scheduling conflict, answering an RFI, tracking a change order, coordinating with subcontractors, and somehow still remembering where everyone agreed to meet for lunch. If that sounds like your kind of fun, keep reading. Who We Are At C1S Group, we don't just build projects—we solve problems that most firms run away from. For more than 25 years, we've partnered with Fortune 500 manufacturers to design and build facilities in the food & beverage, life sciences, aerospace & defense, and technology industries. We specialize in projects with plenty of moving parts, tight schedules, and clients who expect excellence. We're also pretty serious about taking care of our people. We've been recognized as one of the Best Places to Work by the Dallas Business Journal because we believe that when people love where they work, amazing things happen. Around here you'll find high trust, high accountability, great teammates, very little bureaucracy, and people who genuinely enjoy what they do. If you're looking for a company where you can wear a lot of hats, but never feel like you're on your own then you might have found your next team. What You'll Be Doing You'll partner closely with our Project Managers and Superintendents to help keep projects moving from kickoff to closeout.

You naturally organize chaos instead of creating it. People trust you because you follow through. You don't wait to be told what needs to happen. You can juggle multiple priorities without dropping the important ones. You communicate clearly, even when things get stressful. You believe details matter because you've seen what happens when they don't. What You Bring Construction Management, Engineering, or equivalent industry experience Project Management certification (preferred) 4+ years of construction experience 3+ years working on design-build projects preferred Strong communication and relationship-building skills Solid understanding of construction documents, terminology, and project management processes Excellent problem-solving and organizational skills Ability to manage multiple priorities while staying detail-oriented Experience with Microsoft Office, MS Project, Bluebeam, and Procore Why C1S? Because life's too short to work somewhere you dread Monday mornings. At C1S you'll work alongside talented people who genuinely care about doing great work, helping each other succeed, and having some fun along the way. If you're looking for a place where your ideas matter, your work is appreciated, and your career can grow as fast as your ambition, we'd love to meet you. Bring your sense of humor. Bring your "Make It Happen" attitude. We'll take it from there. #J-18808-Ljbffr
