Job Description

A Day in the Life of a Project Director

As a Project Director at First Onsite, you play a pivotal role in bringing restoration projects to life-from initial scope to successful completion. Using industry-leading tools like Xactimate, you'll develop accurate scopes of work, detailed estimates, and preliminary budgets that create the foundation for project success. Partnering closely with Operations, you'll analyze field measurements, plans, photos, and material requirements, combining technical expertise with a strong understanding of construction and restoration costs to drive exceptional outcomes.

This role is ideal for a relationship-builder with a proactive, service-first mindset. You'll collaborate with clients, subcontractors, and internal teams to keep projects moving efficiently, resolve challenges before they become roadblocks, and ensure financial performance stays on track. Through clear communication, sharp attention to detail, and a solutions-focused approach, you'll help deliver high-quality results while making a lasting impact for our customers when they need it most.

Responsibilities:

  • Manage projects from start to finish, including crews, subcontractors, and schedules
  • Prepare budgets, estimates, and scope of work; maintain profit margins
  • Oversee daily jobsite operations, safety, and documentation
  • Review and approve subcontractor proposals and change orders
  • Collaborate with operations to ensure projects stay on schedule and budget
  • Maintain client deliverables and project records in Salesforce
  • Conduct mitigation assessments and develop project plans
  • Respond to project needs 24/7

Experience & Education:

  • Leadership experience in construction/restoration
  • Knowledge of construction documents and large loss projects
  • 3+ years industry experience
  • High school diploma required; bachelor's degree, preferred
  • 4+ certifications
  • Disaster restoration experience, preferred
  • Valid driver's license
