Working closely with Project Managers, the Production team, field leadership, subcontractors, vendors, and customers, the APM helps ensure project information is accurate, materials and resources are coordinated, schedules remain current, documentation is complete, and issues are identified before they become larger problems. This is a developmental project-management role designed for someone who wants to learn the full lifecycle of pool construction and grow into greater project ownership. The APM is expected to become increasingly independent as knowledge and capability develop, while the Project Manager retains ultimate accountability for assigned projects until responsibility is formally transitioned.

Communicate with vendors and subcontractors regarding schedules, availability, project requirements, and status. Track outstanding materials and follow up on delayed or missing items.

Update project notes, schedules, photos, task completion, change information, and other required documentation. Assist with change-order documentation and ensure approved changes are properly communicated. Maintain organized project files so information is accessible to Production, field teams, and other stakeholders.
