A well-established, 100% employee-owned general contractor with more than three decades of history in the Southeast is looking for a Project Manager to join its Charleston-area team. This firm has a strong, active pipeline in healthcare and commercial construction.

About the Role

As Project Manager, you'll take ownership of commercial and/or healthcare construction projects from preconstruction through closeout, serving as the day-to-day leader for budget, schedule, quality, and client relationships.

What You'll Do

• Manage all phases of assigned commercial and/or healthcare construction projects, from preconstruction through closeout
• Own project budgets, schedules, subcontracts, and change order management
• Serve as the primary client-facing point of contact, building and maintaining strong owner and architect relationships
• Coordinate closely with superintendents and field staff to ensure constructability, safety, and quality standards are met
• Lead subcontractor buyout, RFI management, submittal review, and project documentation
• Identify and proactively resolve issues affecting cost, schedule, or scope
• Mentor project engineers/assistant PMs as needed

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years of experience as a Project Manager with a commercial general contractor; healthcare or occupied-facility renovation experience a strong plus
• Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience)
• Experience with CMAR, Design-Build, and/or hard-bid delivery methods
• Strong working knowledge of Procore, Bluebeam, and scheduling software
• Proven track record managing project budgets in the multi-million-dollar range
• Excellent communication and client-management skills
• OSHA 30 certification preferred

What's Offered

• Employee ownership (ESOP) — a direct financial stake in the company's performance
• Strong internal promotion culture with clear paths to Senior PM and beyond
• Competitive compensation and full benefits package
• A team-oriented, safety-first culture with genuine investment in employee development and community involvement
