The Role: Project Manager

We're seeking an experienced, high-performing Project Manager who thrives in the complexity of luxury residential construction. This role is ideal for someone who's technically sharp, emotionally intelligent, and passionate about getting the details right. You'll manage full-cycle project delivery from pre-construction through closeout - ensuring client satisfaction, on-time schedules, clean budgets, and happy teams.

If you're collaborative, take pride in your work, and don't cut corners - you'll fit right in.

What You'll Do

  • Own every aspect of your projects - budgets, timelines, quality, communication, and results.
  • Lead internal teams and subcontractors with clear expectations, thoughtful follow-up, and accountability.
  • Collaborate closely with architects, designers, and discerning homeowners.
  • Hold weekly site meetings, manage client communications, and lead project documentation including RFIs, submittals, and change orders.
  • Maintain safety and cleanliness standards that reflect the premium nature of our builds.
  • Forecast, manage, and report on project financials.
  • Navigate permit processes and inspections confidently.
  • Motivate and support your team, keeping morale high and problem-solving flowing.

What You Bring

  • 3-5 years of experience as a Project Manager or Superintendent in custom or high-end residential construction.
  • Strong understanding of architectural drawings, scopes of work, and project delivery.
  • Calm, clear communicator - able to keep clients confident and crews aligned.
  • Detail-oriented, organized, and responsive.
  • Proficiency in construction management tools (we use Slack, Google Suite, and Buildertrend or similar).
  • Familiarity with Microsoft Project or scheduling software.
  • PMP certification is a plus, but not required.
  • Comfortable with fast-moving timelines and evolving project needs.

What Sets You Apart

You lead with ownership - no finger-pointing or hiding behind others.
You rally your team, not just direct them.


You listen, follow through, and act professionally, even under pressure.
You're collaborative, emotionally intelligent, and committed to the bigger picture.

Why Work With Us?

A culture of craftsmanship and camaraderie - we care about people, not just projects.

High standards, clear systems, and respect for your time and talent.

Room to grow with a team that values initiative and excellence.

Competitive salary based on experience.
