Job description

Shamrock Business Consulting is working with a top General Contractor in Chicago who is looking for a strong Project Manager with a specialty in concrete repair and restoration

This is a self-perform shop, so the work is yours from the estimate to the final walk. You price it, staff it, track production, and answer for the margin — running crews you actually control rather than chasing subcontractors.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Provide complete oversight of repair and restoration projects from estimate through closeout
• Monitor and control construction through administrative direction of the on-site Superintendent and Foreman, keeping the project on schedule and within budget
• Investigate potentially serious situations early and put corrective measures in place before they become claims
• Manage self-perform operations, including estimating, the bid process, production tracking, financial monitoring, and reporting
• Attend and contribute to project meetings
• Develop client relationships and resolve client issues directly
• Build strong working relationships with Superintendents, Subcontractors, and Assistant Project Managers
• Secure permitting and ensure compliance with local ordinances

WHAT YOU BRING

• Self-perform management experience required
• Bachelor's degree in Construction Management or a related field required
• Five or more years of experience in concrete or concrete restoration, or an equivalent combination of education and experience
• Working knowledge of construction project management software — Procore is ideal

WHY THIS ROLE

Restoration is not new construction. Conditions change once you open up the structure, the schedule moves, and the owner is usually occupying the building while you work. It takes a different kind of project manager and the good ones are hard to find. You will own your projects, run your own crews, and have a direct line to the people making decisions.
