Job Description

Feeling stuck in the shadows? Or maybe you’re tired of being the "admin" when you know you’re ready to lead a project’s success.

 

It’s time to move beyond the sidelines—and finally start driving the engine of project delivery.  This is your opportunity to step up as the right-hand leader in commercial construction. You won’t just be "assisting"; you will be the glue that holds complex, multi-million-dollar projects together.

 

We are looking for an  Assistant Project Manager  who is ready to transition from managing tasks to mastering the entire project lifecycle—from preconstruction to the final ribbon-cutting.

 

It doesn’t stop at Assistant Project Manager:  We aren’t just looking for a project engineer with a glorified title; we are looking for a future Project Manager and beyond. We want a professional who models excellence, builds unbreakable client trust, and is hungry to move into full project ownership.

 

  Why You'll Love This Role

  • Accelerate Your Mastery – No more busy work. You’ll be in the room for the big decisions, gaining elite-level exposure to the complex commercial sector.
  • Direct Impact – You aren’t a cog in a machine. You are the critical link ensuring schedule, budget, and safety KPIs are hit across the finish line.
  • Elite Mentorship – Work side by side with Senior PMs who are industry masters, learning the nuances so you are ready to lead.
  • A Clear Horizon – We don't hire APMs to keep them APMs. This is a designated launchpad for your career into Project Management.

 

  What You'll Do

  • Drive the Workflow – Support internal coordination, bridging the gap between design, estimating, and field operations to keep the project breathing.
  • Master the Details – Manage submittals, RFIs, and project documentation with surgical precision, ensuring zero lag time in execution.
  • Uphold the Standard – Ensure every site follows the strictest infection prevention and safety protocols. In healthcare, "good enough" isn't an option.
  • Financial Gatekeeping – Assist in budget tracking, forecasting, and change order management to ensure the project remains profitable and lean.
  • Be the Connector – Act as a secondary point of contact for clients and subcontractors, building the relationships that define our reputation.

 

  What You Bring

  • Foundational Experience – 2–5 years in construction project engineering
  • Hunger for Growth – A "no-task-too-small, no-challenge-too-big" attitude.
  • Technical Edge –  Procore expertise and  Microsoft Project scheduling skills are highly preferred. If you aren't a power user yet, we will get you up to speed if you have the aptitude to learn.
  • Precision Communication – The ability to command a room or a report with clarity, confidence, and professionalism.

 

  What You'll Get

  •   Compensation – High-tier base salary
  •   Profit Sharing – When the company wins, you win. We share as a team annually
  •   Elite Training – A defined roadmap for your promotion to Project Manager
  •   Vehicle Benefits – Monthly allowance and fuel card for your travel needs
  •   Real PTO – We work hard, but we respect the recharge
  •   Platinum Benefits – Top-tier 100% health coverage for both you and your family

 

Ready to Step Into the Arena?

If you are an Assistant Project Manager or Project Engineer tired of the status quo and ready for a path to the top, we’re ready to meet you. Apply today to start the conversation.
