Job description

Construction Project Manager | 2 Days WFH

Chicago, IL

$130,000–$155,000 base + 20% bonus + profit sharing

We’re partnered with a $400M general contractor that is adding a Project Manager to its Chicago team following continued growth across the Midwest.

This is newly created headcount backed by a strong project pipeline-not a replacement hire.

You’ll have full ownership of projects from preconstruction through closeout, with direct access to senior leadership and a clear opportunity to progress into a Project Executive position as the Chicago operation continues to expand.

The role will include:

• Leading projects from initial planning and preconstruction through final closeout
• Owning budgets, schedules, subcontractor buyout, cost forecasting and change management
• Managing relationships with clients, architects, consultants and subcontractors
• Partnering closely with the Superintendent to keep field and office operations aligned
• Leading and developing Project Engineers and Assistant Project Managers
• Identifying potential issues early and driving solutions before they affect the project
• Supporting client relationships and contributing to repeat business

Projects range up to $75M across multifamily, affordable housing, commercial interiors, retail, light industrial, education and healthcare. You’ll gain exposure to a broad range of work rather than becoming tied to one repetitive sector.

What makes the opportunity attractive:

• Two days working from home each week
• Clear progression from Project Manager to Project Executive
• Meaningful ownership and direct visibility with senior leadership
• Diverse projects ranging up to $75M
• Established contractor with more than 60 years in business
• Strong backlog and continued regional growth

Compensation and benefits:

• $130,000–$155,000 base salary
• 20% target annual bonus
• Profit sharing typically ranging from 10–15%
• $750 monthly vehicle allowance
• Four weeks of PTO

This would suit a Project Manager who can independently lead projects, confidently manage clients and project financials, and wants a genuine route into senior leadership without sacrificing flexibility.
