Our diverse, bright and inspired workforce is committed to bettering the communities we serve through breakthrough thinking and innovations. Your goals, ideas and perspective can help shape our future – we look forward to hearing them!

Join Us as a Project Manager – Building Success Together! We’re seeking a motivated, detail-oriented, and collaborative Project Manager to join our team. In this role, you’ll be the key point of contact for managing projects from start to finish, ensuring they exceed expectations, meet safety and quality standards, and deliver exceptional results. This is an exciting opportunity to lead with impact, problem-solve with creativity, and foster meaningful relationships with builders, peers, and suppliers.

Work Environment/Physical Demands Normal office environment with a hybrid work schedule. To support a healthy work-life balance, we offer flexible work schedules, paid vacation and holiday time, and sick time.

What We Offer

• Inclusive Culture: A welcoming, equitable environment where diverse perspectives and experiences are valued.
• Growth Opportunities: Access to professional development, leadership training, and career advancement.
• Collaborative Team: Join a team that values mutual respect, trust, and teamwork.
• Competitive Benefits: A comprehensive benefits package, flexible work options, and a focus on work-life balance.

What You’ll Do

• Lead Communication: Serve as the primary point of contact, providing clear and concise verbal and written communication with builders and internal teams.
• Solve Challenges: Proactively problem-solve field issues and resolve claims with a solutions-oriented mindset.
• Support Collaboration: Facilitate seamless communication with builders during the engineering stage and foster a collaborative work environment across teams.
• Manage Orders: Conduct business audits, ensure accuracy of order entry, and fully understand project scope. Manage backlog data and supplier items to ensure smooth operations.

• Adapt and Innovate: Handle change orders effectively and employ sound risk management to meet profitability goals.
• Disclaimer: This role is responsible to project manage the metal building steel structure from order entry to delivery and installation completion. The project manager is responsible for the steel structure schedule, managing the scope of work, overall margin, and is the builder’s point of contact for the metal building steel structure. This is a hybrid office position, not a field position. This is not an IT project manager role while some of the project management techniques can apply.

• Have strong organizational and multitasking skills.
• Excel at building relationships and trust with peers, builders, and suppliers.
• Thrive in problem-solving situations and can manage change with confidence.
• Communicate clearly and effectively, both verbally and in writing.
