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 commercial interiors, interior systems, and specialty construction projects. This is not a coordinator-style Project Manager role. We are looking for a hands-on builder who understands production, labor tracking, manpower planning, and field operations within self-perform contractor environments. The ideal candidate has direct experience managing drywall, metal stud framing, commercial interiors, exterior finishes, painting, or related scopes with internal field crews. This opportunity is ideal for a field-driven construction professional who takes ownership of project execution and understands how to successfully deliver projects from preconstruction through closeout.

• Manage self-perform construction projects from preconstruction through final closeout
• Oversee field operations, manpower planning, production schedules, and labor tracking
• Coordinate directly with superintendents, foremen, vendors, subcontractors, 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 throughout the project lifecycle
• Monitor project schedules and proactively resolve delays, coordination issues, and field challenges
• Ensure projects are completed safely, on schedule, within budget, and aligned with quality expectations
• Support project closeout, punch lists, and final turnover documentation
• Maintain organized project reporting and communication with leadership teams
• Successfully manage multiple active projects simultaneously

• 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

• 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

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

If you?re a hands-on construction leader who thrives in self-perform environments and enjoys owning projects from field execution through completion, we?d love to hear from you.
