Job Description

As a Senior Project Manager, you will lead and deliver high-quality project management services across a portfolio of landlord-owned commercial real estate assets. This role is designed for a proactive, project manager who thrives in a fast-paced environment and enjoys managing multiple small capital and TI projects simultaneously, rather than focusing on a single large build. Success in this role requires strong ownership, adaptability, and the ability to move quickly between priorities while maintaining excellent execution standards. You will serve as the primary point of coordination between landlords, tenants, contractors, and multiple onsite trades, ensuring projects are executed efficiently, on time, and within budget. Projects typically include small capital and TI scopes such as HVAC upgrades, interior improvements, lighting, fencing, parking, and light exterior work across office, industrial (preferred), and retail properties. This position is well suited for a go getter who values autonomy, variety, and direct impact. The day-to-day work involves managing 10–20 active projects at a time, overseeing all phases of delivery including planning, budgeting, scheduling, execution, and closeout. You will track milestones, manage budgets and risks, collaborate closely with internal teams and external stakeholders, and provide hands-on leadership to vendors and project partners. Building strong client relationships and understanding asset-level goals will be key to driving successful outcomes and repeat engagement. This is a high-volume, high-visibility role where efficiency, organization, and communication are essential. The work environment is fast-moving and requires regularly bouncing between sites, rather than being stationed at a single project location. Mileage is reimbursable.

Role highlights:

• Fast-paced environment managing dozens of smaller projects rather than one large build

• High level of autonomy and ownership across a diverse project portfolio

• • Ideal for candidates who enjoy variety, momentum, and hands-on project leadership
