Job description

Construction Project Manager

Location: Southfield, MI Job Type: Full-Time

We are seeking a highly capable Construction Project Manager to join a growing, fast-moving construction and contracting team focused on municipal, commercial, and special projects throughout Michigan.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys solving problems, managing a variety of project types, and working in a hands-on, small business environment where no two projects are the same. Projects may include renovations, emergency repairs, paving, public works improvements, historical building relocation, facility upgrades, and other specialty construction projects.

The Project Manager will focus on project execution coordinating subcontractors, managing schedules and documentation, communicating with clients, and ensuring projects are completed safely, efficiently, and professionally.

What You'll Do

  • Manage multiple active projects simultaneously from kickoff through completion
  • Coordinate subcontractors, vendors, clients, and field personnel
  • Conduct site visits to monitor progress, quality, safety, and project timelines
  • Review project documentation, contracts, budgets, change orders, and schedules
  • Track project updates and maintain accurate records and reporting
  • Prepare meeting notes, project status updates, and project files
  • Assist with work orders, RFP coordination, and project administration
  • Identify project issues proactively and help drive practical solutions
  • Ensure projects are completed in a safe, organized, and professional manner

Project Types

Projects vary in scope and complexity and may include:

  • Interior renovations
  • Municipal and public works projects
  • Emergency repair work
  • Facility upgrades and improvements
  • Painting and paving projects
  • Historical building relocation
  • Site and infrastructure improvements

Most projects range from several weeks to a few months in duration, with typical project values between $100K$500K.

What We're Looking For

  • 4+ years of experience in construction project management, contracting, facilities projects, or related field
  • Experience coordinating multiple trades and subcontractors
  • Positive, adaptable, and solutions-oriented mindset
  • General construction knowledge across trades including electrical, plumbing, carpentry, and site work
  • Understanding of municipal or public-sector projects is a strong plus
  • OSHA 30 Certification

Technical Skills

  • Microsoft Excel, Word, and PowerPoint
  • Adobe Acrobat/PDF tools
  • Scheduling software such as MS Project
  • CRM/ERP systems such as Salesforce or similar platforms

Additional Information

  • Primarily based out of the Southfield/Detroit headquarters office
  • Occasional travel to project sites throughout Michigan
  • Rare overnight travel
  • Small, collaborative team environment with opportunity for long-term growth

We are looking for someone who is proactive, dependable, and willing to do what it takes to keep projects moving successfully from start to finish.
