Job description

MatchBuilt is an executive search firm partnering with a growing regional home builder seeking a Project Manager for its Northeast Florida operations, reporting to the Director of Construction. The role is based in the Amelia Island area: you work from a home office and are on site daily where the homes are being built.

The Project Manager owns assigned vertical construction projects from preconstruction handoff through closeout and early warranty: schedule, field execution, trade sequencing, workmanship, inspections, safety, documentation, and the homebuyer experience. The homes are luxury residences in the $1M+ range, in communities clustered closely together.

You need a strong background in residential field construction. Only candidates with homebuilding experience will be considered. This is a field role, and you’ll be on site daily across your assigned communities.

You join a growing division with a real path to broader responsibility as it expands.

• Direct daily trade sequencing and jobsite logistics, including access, staging, deliveries, storage, temporary facilities, and site cleanliness.
• Verify installed work against plans, specifications, and product approvals; use pre-installation reviews and hold points before work is concealed, and document critical conditions with photos.
• Schedule jurisdictional inspections, maintain permit documents on site, and drive prompt correction and reinspection when needed.
• Enforce jobsite safety and stormwater controls; stop unsafe work immediately and document incidents, damage, and near misses.
• Provide Purchasing with accurate percent-complete verification and cost-to-complete input, and review project bills for work performed before recommending acceptance.
• Identify changes and unforeseen conditions early, documenting scope, photos, and schedule impact, and obtain approval before added work proceeds.
• Communicate with homebuyers at least weekly, lead site walks at key milestones, and document decisions and follow-ups in the project record.
• Complete an accurate daily log for every active job covering manpower, work performed, deliveries, inspections, weather, delays, and decisions needed.
• Drive rolling punch, final inspections, and closeout documentation through homebuyer orientation, turnover, and early warranty.
