Assistant Project Manager

I am currently representing a powerhouse in the Florida construction market—a General Contractor & Construction Management specialist known for their deep roots and prestigious portfolio. With a reputation built on decades of successful delivery, my client is a "household name" in the Florida GC space. They operate across a diverse range of high‑stakes sectors, including K-12 & Higher Education, Healthcare, Federal, and Multifamily . Due to a massive surge in project wins across the Orlando area , they are looking to bolster their project teams with high-calibrated Assistant Project Managers who are ready to fast‑track their careers. ABOUT THE ROLE Project Controls: Take ownership of the RFI and Submittal processes. Ensure the field team is working off the most current sets and that all technical queries are resolved swiftly. Subcontractor Management: Act as the primary liaison for subcontractors, coordinating schedules, verifying work progress, and managing compliance. Financial Support: Assist in tracking project budgets, reviewing pay applications, and managing the change order log to protect project margins. Site Presence: Spend time on‑site to assist with quality control inspections, safety compliance, and the development of comprehensive punch lists. Meeting Leadership: Coordinate and document OAC (Owner‑Architect‑Contractor) meetings, ensuring all stakeholders are aligned and action items are closed out. ABOUT THE CANDIDATE Education: Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or a related field is required. Experience: 2 to 5 years of experience in commercial construction. (Previous experience in the Florida market is a significant advantage). Tech‑Savvy: You should be a "power user" of Procore or similar project management platforms. Exposure to Primavera P6 is a plus. Communication: You must be able to hold your own in a trailer and a boardroom alike—clear, concise, and professional communication is non‑negotiable. The "Driver" Mentality: You don't wait to be told what to do; you anticipate needs, identify risks early, and provide solutions. Safety First: OSHA 30‑Hour certification is preferred. #J-18808-Ljbffr
