About Chapter

\n

Chapter is a design-build company specializing in high-end residential renovations across New York City, Miami, New Jersey, Westchester, and Connecticut.

\n

We bring architecture, design, construction, and project management together under one integrated team to create a more seamless renovation experience for homeowners.

\n

Our focus is not simply building beautiful spaces. It's delivering projects through structure, communication, accountability, and execution.

\n

\n

The Role

\n

We are hiring a Construction Project Manager to lead renovation projects from pre-construction through final closeout. This is a true ownership role. You will be responsible for driving project outcomes across schedule, budget, quality, and client experience while coordinating homeowners, subcontractors, vendors, designers, and internal teams.

\n

\n

What You'll Own

\n

\n
• Full lifecycle management of residential renovation projects from pre-construction through closeout
\n
• Budget development, estimating, material takeoffs, and cost management
\n
• Project scheduling and day-to-day field coordination
\n
• Management of RFIs, submittals, change orders, permits, and project documentation
\n
• Subcontractor coordination, performance management, and accountability
\n
• Vendor management, procurement support, pricing review, and material tracking

High-Touch Client Service

\n

A significant part of this role is managing homeowner relationships.

\n

You will be expected to build trust, communicate proactively, manage expectations, navigate difficult conversations, and deliver a polished client experience throughout the renovation process.

\n

Success in this role requires both strong construction management skills and strong client management skills.

\n

\n

What Matters

\n
• You can take ownership and drive projects forward without constant supervision
\n
• You communicate clearly with clients, subcontractors, vendors, and internal teams
\n
