Project Manager

Job Description

Project Manager

Run your own jobs, start to finish. Pick work close to home. Work for a company that actually cares about you.

THE OPPORTUNITY

I’m running a confidential search for a Project Manager with a well-established South Florida general contractor, and this one is a breath of fresh air.

This isn’t a pressure cooker. You won’t be a cog on a mega project or buried under a chain of senior PMs. Here, you own your projects from preconstruction through closeout, and you have a real say in which jobs you take on, so you can choose work that keeps your commute manageable.

The company is large enough to handle complex, high-profile work but small enough that leadership knows your name and genuinely looks out for you. They self-perform key trades including structural concrete, masonry, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and fire sprinklers, which means more control over schedule, quality, and cost (and fewer headaches for you). They’ve never had a recordable injury, and their EMR stays below 1.00.

They’re also growing, with a strong pipeline across Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach.

THE VARIETY

This is not a one-product-type shop. Upcoming and awarded work includes:

\n
• Multistory student housing for a major South Florida university
\n
• Building renovations and office improvements in Miami Beach
\n
• A boutique oceanfront hotel
\n
• Luxury custom estates in Boca Raton and Fort Lauderdale
\n
• New aircraft hangars and an FBO facility at a local airport
\n
• Mixed-use multifamily and commercial development
\n
• A Class A office buildout in Brickell
\n
• A phased renovation for a national luxury retailer
\n
• A freestanding emergency department
\n

If you like variety and don’t want to spend the next three years on the same job, you’ll love it here.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

\n
• Run projects from start to finish, including budgets, schedules, buyout, and closeout
\n
• Manage RFIs, submittals, change orders, and pay apps
\n
• Lead subcontractors and partner closely with your superintendent and the self-perform teams
\n
• Be the main point of contact for owners, architects, and design teams
\n
• Keep jobs moving, solve problems early, and deliver the way you’d want your own project built
\n

WHAT YOU BRING

\n
• Experience as a PM with a commercial GC, or an APM who is ready to step up and run your own projects
\n
• Strong RFI, submittal, and document control skills
\n
• Experience in multifamily, commercial, interiors, hospitality, or renovation work
\n
• Organized, accountable, and comfortable owning the full project
\n
• South Florida market knowledge a plus
\n

WHAT YOU GET

Up to $135K base + bonus

A say in your projects so you can stay close to home

️ Full ownership of your jobs, start to finish

A team that truly values its people, not a pressure cooker

A growing company with a strong, diverse pipeline
