A bit about us:

Our client is a Boston-based construction management and general contracting firm with decades of experience delivering complex projects throughout New England and the Eastern United States.

Their portfolio spans multi-family and luxury residential, commercial and office, hospitality, retail, restaurants, academic institutions, assisted living, historic renovations, and mill rehabilitations. Their projects range from high-end residential developments to large-scale multi-unit buildings and complex adaptive-reuse projects.

The company takes a collaborative approach to construction, becoming involved early in the process to help owners and design teams develop realistic budgets, identify potential issues, and create workable project plans before construction begins.

Why join us?

This is an opportunity to join an established Boston construction company where project management is more than paperwork.

The APM will work alongside experienced Project Managers and Superintendents and have exposure to projects from preconstruction through closeout.

you'll also gain experience across a diverse project portfolio, including luxury residential, multifamily, hospitality, commercial, historic renovation, and adaptive-reuse projects.

For someone looking to build a long-term career in construction and eventually move into a Project Manager role, this is an opportunity to develop that skill set while working on some of the more complex projects in the Boston market.

Job Details
