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
