Job description

Build Complex Projects. Solve Difficult Problems. Own the Details.

At Dwan Elevator, we don't simply install elevators—we deliver complex projects that require technical expertise, precision, and flawless execution.

We're looking for a Project Manager who enjoys mastering technical systems, solving complicated problems, and taking complete ownership of projects from kickoff through final completion.

If you're someone who naturally digs into details, enjoys figuring things out independently, thrives under pressure, and takes pride in delivering projects the right way—not the easy way,we'd like to meet you.

About Dwan Elevator

Dwan Elevator is Northern California's trusted provider of residential and commercial elevator installation, modernization, repair, and maintenance services. Our reputation has been built on technical excellence, customer trust, and consistently delivering quality projects. Our Project Managers play a critical role in protecting that reputation.

About the Opportunity

This is not a coordinator role.

This is a leadership position for someone who enjoys owning complicated construction projects while balancing technical details, customer expectations, budgets, schedules, subcontractors, and changing field conditions.

Every project presents new challenges.

Success comes from remaining organized, analytical, and composed while keeping multiple moving pieces progressing simultaneously.

If you enjoy becoming the technical expert everyone relies upon, you'll likely thrive here.

What You'll Own

Lead Projects From Start to Finish

Take complete ownership of multiple elevator installation, modernization, and repair projects from planning through final turnover.

Solve Technical Problems

Evaluate project issues, analyze options, make sound decisions, and proactively eliminate obstacles before they impact schedules or customers.

Drive Project Performance

Develop project schedules, monitor budgets, coordinate resources, and ensure every project remains on schedule, within budget, and aligned with quality standards.

Coordinate Multiple Teams

Work closely with sales, field supervisors, installers, subcontractors, suppliers, inspectors, and customers to keep every project moving efficiently.

Protect Quality

Maintain strict attention to specifications, building codes, safety requirements, documentation, and project accuracy.

Build Customer Confidence

Serve as the primary customer contact after the sale by providing clear communication, practical solutions, and consistent follow-through.

What Makes Someone Successful Here?

Our best Project Managers naturally:

• Become experts in their field.
• Enjoy working in fast-moving environments with changing priorities.
• Stay organized while managing numerous active projects.
• Make decisions confidently using facts and analysis.
• Balance urgency with exceptional attention to detail.
• Hold themselves and others accountable.
• Work independently without needing constant direction.
• Communicate clearly, professionally, and directly.
• Have the mental stamina to remain productive during demanding workdays.

Preferred Experience

• Three or more years of construction project management experience.
• Elevator, HVAC, mechanical, electrical, or similar trade experience preferred.
• Experience managing projects from planning through final completion.
• Strong understanding of construction scheduling, budgeting, and coordination.

Technical Qualifications

• Proficiency with project management software (Procore, Textura, or similar)
• Microsoft Office Suite
• Knowledge of construction methods and safety standards
• Familiarity with OSHA, ADA, and local building codes is preferred
• Valid driver's license

Compensation

• Performance bonus tied to project execution
• 401(k)
• Paid Time Off
• Paid lunch
