The company is known for delivering high-quality projects through collaboration, innovation, and client-focused service, partnering with owners, architects, engineers, and subcontractors to successfully execute complex construction projects throughout the region.

Position Summary

  • Track and maintain financial performance throughout the project lifecycle.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Architecture, or related field preferred.
  • 5+ years of Project Management experience with a General Contractor or Construction Manager.
  • Experience in commercial construction (healthcare, life sciences, higher education, institutional, corporate interiors, or similar markets).
  • Strong understanding of construction means and methods, scheduling, budgeting, and contract administration.
  • Proficiency with construction management software and Microsoft Office Suite.
  • Experience with Procore, Bluebeam, Primavera P6, or Microsoft Project preferred.
  • Strong communication, leadership, and organizational skills.
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.

Preferred Experience

  • HVAC / mechanical construction experience strongly preferred (HVAC systems coordination, mechanical scope management, or MEP-heavy project experience highly valued)

What’s Offered

  • Competitive compensation package
  • Performance-based bonus opportunities
  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision benefits
  • 401(k) with company contribution
  • Paid time off and holidays
  • Professional development and career growth opportunities
