Project Manager - Self-Perform Construction

We are seeking an experienced Project Manager with a strong self-perform construction background to join a growing team specializing in interior systems and commercial construction projects.

This is not a coordinator-style PM role. We are looking for a hands-on builder who understands production, labor tracking, crew management, and field operations within self-perform environments. The ideal candidate has direct experience managing drywall, metal stud framing, interior systems, exterior finishes, or related scopes with internal crews.

Responsibilities

• Manage self-perform construction projects from preconstruction through closeout
• Oversee field operations, production schedules, manpower planning, and labor tracking
• Coordinate directly with superintendents, foremen, vendors, and clients
• Build and manage project budgets based on labor hours, install rates, and production metrics
• Track RFIs, submittals, change orders, procurement, and project documentation
• Monitor project schedules and proactively address delays or field issues
• Ensure projects are completed safely, on schedule, and within budget
• Support project closeout, punch lists, and final turnover documentation

Requirements

• 5+ years of project management experience within self-perform construction environments
• Background with drywall, metal stud framing, commercial interiors, exterior finishes, painting, or related scopes strongly preferred
• Experience managing internal field crews rather than strictly subcontractor coordination
• Strong understanding of production rates, labor tracking, sequencing, and field operations
• Ability to read and interpret construction drawings and specifications
• Experience managing multiple projects simultaneously
• Strong communication, leadership, and problem-solving skills

Preferred Background

• Former Foreman or Superintendent who transitioned into Project Management
• Experience working for specialty subcontractors rather than GC-only environments
• Experience in retail, hospital, tenant improvement, or large commercial interior projects
• Familiarity with QuickBooks RST or Plexus software is a plus

Benefits

• Competitive base salary
• Bonus opportunities
• Health benefits
• PTO and paid holidays
• Long-term career growth with a fast-moving and team-oriented organization
