Assistant Project Manager | Turn project controls into your next PM role.

$45 - $50 per hour

Per Se Group

You won't be buried in RFIs and submittals all day. You'll sit at the center of a large, multi-site capital program - keeping schedules honest, spotting problems early, and making sure everyone from the project team to leadership knows what is happening.

Do you have the right skills and experience for this role Read on to find out, and make your application.

You'll own the moving pieces. You'll maintain Microsoft Project schedules across multiple active projects, capture changes and decisions from meetings, track milestones and budgets, and turn project data into reports leadership can actually use. You'll coordinate contractors, vendors and stakeholders, keep action items from disappearing, and work alongside experienced Senior PMs to identify schedule issues before they become client problems.

The real opportunity: you're not being hired to stay an APM forever. As you prove you can take ownership, you'll get opportunities to run meetings, take on projects and move toward Project Manager responsibilities. You'll also get exposure to a large corporate portfolio spanning major workplace, infrastructure and capital improvement projects.

This is a 40-hour, hybrid role in the Raleigh area , with on-site work at the client as needed, paying $45–$50/hour

You'll fit well if you're the person who naturally keeps a project organized, notices when something doesn't add up, follows through without being chased, and can talk comfortably with a contractor in the morning and an executive stakeholder in the afternoon. You should have solid construction/capital-project experience and hands-on scheduling experience with Microsoft Project or P6.

Curious what the portfolio looks like and how quickly you could move toward PM ownership? Reach out and I'll tell you about it.
