Job description

Shamrock Business Consulting is working with a specialty masonry and facade restoration contractor to find a Project Manager.

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

• Five or more years of experience in brick, stone, terracotta, or facade repair, or an equivalent combination of education and experience
• Working knowledge of construction project management software — Procore is ideal
• Previous experience with self-perform estimating and project execution
• Bachelor's degree in Construction Management or a related field preferred

Why This Role

Facade work does not behave like new construction. You don't know what you have until the scaffold is up and the units come off, the building is usually occupied while you work, and the repair has to match what was there a century ago. It takes a specific kind of project manager and there aren't many. You will own your projects, run your own crews, and have a direct line to the people making decisions.
