Job description

First Onsite is looking for a Full-Time Experienced Project Manager ***from the disaster restoration industry with Xactimate skills in Kitchener to lead restoration projects.

When disaster strikes, you don't panic - you plan. You've got the vision to see a project through from chaos to completion, and the skills to make it all happen with confidence and a smile.

As the quarterback of the restoration process, you'll scope the damage, estimate the work, and guide property owners through one of the toughest moments of their lives - all while keeping your cool and keeping things on track. You'll be part problem-solver, part customer service superstar, and part construction expert.

In return? You'll earn a competitive salary plus incentive, enjoy a stacked benefits package (medical, dental, vision - the works!), and gain access to career development opportunities that could take you across the country. Add to that a supportive team and a healthy work/life balance, and you've got a role worth showing up for.

A DAY IN THE LIFE OF A PROJECT MANAGER

As a Project Manager, you play a key role in ensuring that projects are completed on time to our quality standards. To the property owner, adjuster, and insurance company, you are the face of our company. You establish trust as you consult with clients about projects, answering their questions and following up with them to ensure complete satisfaction. You prepare accurate quotations, job costing, and estimating.

Throughout each project you manage, you inspect progress and work quality to ensure that emergency and rebuild timelines are met and in alignment with policy and guidelines. You manage all sorts of restoration claims including water damage, fire damage to both residential and commercial properties. As necessary, you resolve disputes and complaints cheerfully and in a professional manner. The strong relationships you build with home/business owners, adjusters, property managers, and other key players assist you in generating new leads. Your knowledge of the restoration/construction industry, your skills as an estimator, and your knack for sales help you excel in this project management position.

QUALIFICATIONS

• 2-3 years as a Project Manager from the Restoration industry

• Experience planning and monitoring budgets
• Valid driver's license - FULL G
• Clean criminal record
• Ability to participate in a 24/7 on-call rotation
• Work activities may include physical labour, material handling and lifting, climbing ladders, wearing a respirator, and working in tight spaces (attics, basements, and crawlspaces)
