Archway Graphic Designs is a small, established architectural signage company specializing in custom signage and fabrication projects. We are looking for an experienced, highly organized Project Manager to take ownership of projects from the time they are sold through fabrication, delivery, installation, and final closeout.

This is a hands-on position. The right person will be comfortable managing multiple projects simultaneously, communicating directly with customers and vendors, coordinating production and installation, solving problems independently, and keeping projects on schedule and on budget.

Experience in the sign-industry is not necessary; however, experience in architectural millwork, specialty construction, custom fabrication, environmental graphics, commercial construction, or a similar project-based business is highly relevant.

• Manage job flow to ensure deadlines are met or exceeded
• Communicate regularly with customers, architects, contractors, vendors, and installers
• Identify project risks and resolve problems before they affect schedule or profitability
• Track project costs, commitments, change orders, and billing
• Maintain accurate project documentation
• Coordinate punch lists and project closeout
• Provide owners with timely updates on project status, schedule, and financial performance

Requirements:

• 5+ years of project coordination or project management
• 2+ years experience in specialty construction, architectural millwork, custom fabrication or related field
• Strong organizational and follow up skills
• Excellent written and verbal communication
• Ability to read and understand architectural drawings
• Comfortable managing multiple projects simultaneously
• Able to work independently and make sound decisions
