Job description

About the Role

Spectrum Woodworking & Interiors is seeking a Project Manager to lead complex commercial millwork and interior projects from handoff through closeout. Our PMs are responsible for driving their projects forward — managing scope, budget, schedule, coordination, quality, and the customer relationship.

We're looking for someone who understands commercial construction, communicates clearly, stays ahead of problems, and follows through. Someone who takes responsibility for the outcome, not just the tasks along the way.

We're open to experienced Project Managers as well as Senior Project Engineers, Assistant PMs, or Junior PMs who have a strong construction foundation and are ready for greater project ownership.

What You'll Do

• Manage projects from internal handoff through closeout.
• Own project scope, budget, schedule, change management, and financial performance.
• Coordinate closely with Engineering, Purchasing, Production, and Field Operations.
• Serve as a primary point of contact for general contractors, architects, owners, and other project stakeholders.
• Identify scope gaps, schedule risks, constructability issues, and potential problems early.
• Manage RFIs, submittals, change orders, documentation, and project communication.
• Keep internal teams aligned on project requirements, priorities, and commitments.
• Build strong customer relationships while protecting Spectrum's contractual and financial interests.
• Follow established Project Management systems and processes while using sound judgment to solve problems and keep projects moving.

What We're Looking For

Relevant experience may include architectural millwork, casework, commercial interiors, specialty subcontracting, or other complex commercial construction.

Highly Preferred Experience & Skills

• 3+ years of experience in commercial construction, architectural millwork, casework, commercial interiors, or specialty contracting.
• Experience as a Project Manager, Assistant/Junior PM, or Senior Project Engineer with meaningful project responsibility.
• Strong ability to read and understand architectural drawings, specifications, and contract documents.
• Experience managing project schedules, budgets, change orders, RFIs, submittals, and closeout.
• Working knowledge of project financials, cost forecasting, and margin management.
• Strong communication and coordination skills with general contractors, architects, field teams, vendors, and internal departments.
• Ability to identify problems early, develop solutions, and keep projects moving.
• Highly organized with the ability to manage multiple projects and competing priorities.
• Comfortable making decisions, taking ownership, and being accountable for results.
• Experience using ERP/ MRP or other related software

Architectural millwork or casework experience is highly preferred, but we will consider strong candidates from similarly complex commercial construction backgrounds.
