Assistant Construction Project Manager

MRINetwork

Feeling stuck in the shadows? Or maybe you're tired of being the "admin" when you know you're ready to lead a project's success.

It's time to move beyond the sidelines-and finally start driving the engine of project delivery. This is your opportunity to step up as the right-hand leader in commercial construction. You won't just be "assisting"; you will be the glue that holds complex, multi-million-dollar projects together.

We are looking for an Assistant Project Manager who is ready to transition from managing tasks to mastering the entire project lifecycle-from preconstruction to the final ribbon-cutting.

It doesn't stop at Assistant Project Manager: We aren't just looking for a project engineer with a glorified title; we are looking for a future Project Manager and beyond. We want a professional who models excellence, builds unbreakable client trust, and is hungry to move into full project ownership.

Why You'll Love This Role

  • Accelerate Your Mastery - No more busy work. You'll be in the room for the big decisions, gaining elite-level exposure to the complex commercial sector.
  • Direct Impact - You aren't a cog in a machine. You are the critical link ensuring schedule, budget, and safety KPIs are hit across the finish line.
  • Elite Mentorship - Work side by side with Senior PMs who are industry masters, learning the nuances so you are ready to lead.
  • A Clear Horizon - We don't hire APMs to keep them APMs. This is a designated launchpad for your career into Project Management.
What You'll Do
  • Drive the Workflow - Support internal coordination, bridging the gap between design, estimating, and field operations to keep the project breathing.
  • Master the Details - Manage submittals, RFIs, and project documentation with surgical precision, ensuring zero lag time in execution.
  • Uphold the Standard - Ensure every site follows the strictest infection prevention and safety protocols. In healthcare, "good enough" isn't an option.
  • Financial Gatekeeping - Assist in budget tracking, forecasting, and change order management to ensure the project remains profitable and lean.
  • Be the Connector - Act as a secondary point of contact for clients and subcontractors, building the relationships that define our reputation.
What You Bring
  • Foundational Experience - 2-5 years in construction project engineering
  • Hunger for Growth - A "no-task-too-small, no-challenge-too-big" attitude.
  • Technical Edge - Procore expertise and Microsoft Project scheduling skills are highly preferred. If you aren't a power user yet, we will get you up to speed if you have the aptitude to learn.
  • Precision Communication - The ability to command a room or a report with clarity, confidence, and professionalism.
What You'll Get
  • Compensation - High-tier base salary
  • Profit Sharing - When the company wins, you win. We share as a team annually
  • Elite Training - A defined roadmap for your promotion to Project Manager
  • Vehicle Benefits - Monthly allowance and fuel card for your travel needs
  • Real PTO - We work hard, but we respect the recharge
  • Platinum Benefits - Top-tier 100% health coverage for both you and your family
