Job description

A well-established national general contractor is looking to add a Project Manager to its growing San Antonio team. This is a strong opportunity for someone who wants to work on sophisticated commercial projects while joining a company that offers the resources, reputation, and stability of a national contractor with the feel and visibility of a smaller local operation.

The company is known for delivering high-end commercial interiors, tenant improvements, renovations, and complex occupied-space projects for corporate and private-sector clients. Their San Antonio operation continues to grow, creating an opportunity for a Project Manager who wants to take ownership of projects, work directly with clients, and continue developing toward a senior leadership role.

What You'll Be Responsible For

• Manage commercial construction projects from preconstruction through closeout
• Take ownership of project schedules, budgets, contracts, procurement, and overall execution
• Coordinate with owners, architects, consultants, subcontractors, and internal project teams
• Lead project meetings and maintain clear communication with all project stakeholders
• Manage subcontractor buyout, scopes of work, change orders, RFIs, submittals, and project documentation
• Track project financials, forecasts, cost reports, and overall profitability
• Work closely with field leadership to maintain schedule, quality, and safety expectations
• Identify project risks early and develop solutions to keep projects moving
• Support preconstruction efforts including budgeting, estimating, constructability reviews, and scheduling
• Maintain strong client relationships throughout the life of the project
• Mentor Assistant Project Managers and Project Engineers
• Help support the continued growth of the San Antonio operation

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years of commercial construction experience
• Previous experience as a Project Manager, Assistant Project Manager, or Senior Project Engineer with a commercial general contractor
• Experience managing commercial projects from start to finish
• Strong background in one or more of the following:

Commercial Interiors

Office

Corporate Interiors

Commercial Renovations

Occupied Renovations

Hospitality

Retail

High-End Finish-Out

Ground-Up Commercial Construction

• Strong understanding of project financials, contracts, schedules, procurement, change management, and subcontractor coordination
• Ability to manage multiple priorities while maintaining strong attention to detail
• Strong communication and client-facing skills
• Experience working with private-sector clients and negotiated work is preferred
• Existing relationships within the San Antonio construction market are a plus
• Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Architecture, or a related field is preferred but not required with equivalent experience

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• This is a strong fit for someone who wants to work for a highly respected commercial contractor without getting lost inside a massive organization.
• The San Antonio team is growing, and Project Managers have the opportunity to work closely with senior leadership, take real ownership of their projects, and develop long-term relationships with repeat clients.

You'll have the opportunity to:

• Manage sophisticated commercial projects from beginning to end
• Work directly with owners and senior leadership
• Join a growing San Antonio operation
• Gain exposure to high-end interiors, renovations, and select ground-up work
• Mentor junior project staff and continue developing as a leader
• Build a path toward Senior Project Manager and Project Executive responsibilities
• Work in a relationship-driven environment where strong performance is highly visible
