Job description

Reno, NV | Full-Time | On-Site | $100,000 - $120,000 | Positions Open: 1

Teklus is a veteran-owned and veteran-operated general contractor out of Reno - about 40 people building commercial and industrial projects across Nevada, Arizona, Kansas, and California, including work for some of the biggest names in the tech industry. People join for the client list. They stay because of how they're treated.

We’re hiring a Project Manager to lead a portfolio of industrial and commercial construction projects and owning execution from preconstruction through close-out on projects with budgets exceeding $10M.

How we work - the five things we hire for

• Treat Everyone Kind Like U Should. No matter who they are - lead with kindness, listen genuinely, give credit in abundance, and be straight with people - especially when it's hard.
• Have Trust, Give Trust. Trust goes both ways - believe in others' good intentions and follow through so clients and teammates can count on what we say.
• Build It Like It's Yours. Never settle for good enough - build every job like our name is on it and have the courage to always do what's right.
• Take the Extra Minute. Rushing costs more than it saves - pause to check your work, keep everyone safe from harm, and celebrate our successes.
• A Little Better All the Time. We're never done learning - the smallest lessons, applied every day, are why each project runs better than the last.

ABOUT THE ROLE

You'll be the driving force behind project performance while managing timelines, budgets, and stakeholder relationships while coordinating closely with field leadership to keep execution aligned. This is a high-visibility role with room to mentor junior team members and shape how projects get delivered.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Lead a portfolio of industrial and commercial construction projects from concept to completion
• Develop and maintain project plans: scope, budget, timeline, and staffing
• Partner with estimating and preconstruction on constructability and feasibility
• Manage subcontractor buyout, scope alignment, and contract execution
• Review, negotiate, and process change orders, RFIs, submittals, and progress billings
• Track performance through earned value analysis, cost-to-complete forecasting, and risk registers
• Conduct job site visits to validate execution, QA/QC, and schedule adherence
• Serve as the key liaison with clients, architects, engineers, and local jurisdictions
• Host weekly progress meetings with internal and external stakeholders
• Lead closeout documentation: as-builts, warranty logs, O&M manuals, final reconciliations
• Mentor junior PMs and Project Engineers
• Build relationships with trade partners and vendors for competitive pricing and schedule reliability

WHAT YOU BRING

Required:

• 8–12 years of experience managing industrial/commercial construction projects, preferably in a regional or multi-site capacity.
• Proven ability to manage budgets exceeding $10M, multiple stakeholders, and fast-track schedules.
• Proficiency with Bluebeam and Microsoft Office Suite required; P6 or other scheduling software experience is a plus.
• Strong analytical, organizational, and client-facing skills.

Preferred:

• Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or related field
• Strong familiarity with regulatory compliance, permitting, and project documentation standards
