Job description

About This Role

APRC is hiring a Mitigation Project Manager—a hands-on field leader who can take control of fast-moving jobs, communicate confidently with customers, and keep crews, schedules, and documentation aligned.

Restoration experience is helpful—but not required. If you've led work in construction, trades, facilities, field operations, or emergency response, we'll train you on the restoration-specific process and standards.

Mitigation is the urgent first phase after property damage—focused on preventing further loss and preparing the site for reconstruction.

What You'll Do

• Manage residential and commercial mitigation jobs from start to finish
• Oversee multiple fast-moving projects at once
• Lead technicians and coordinate subcontractors to maintain production
• Set expectations with customers and explain process, scope, and timelines clearly
• Complete site visits, quality checks, and course-correct when needed
• Ensure safety, cleanliness, and professional jobsite standards
• Track job progress, drive efficiency, and protect gross margin
• Solve problems fast—without drama—and keep the customer calm and informed

What We're Looking For

• Field leadership or project coordination experience
• Strong communication and customer confidence
• Ability to juggle priorities and make decisions quickly
• Basic computer skills (email, documentation, learning new systems)
• A valid driver's license and acceptable driving record
• Willingness to rotate on-call shifts and work overtime when needed
• Competitive base pay + performance incentives
• Paid time off and paid holidays
• Health, dental, and vision insurance
• Company vehicle or vehicle allowance
• IICRC and industry certification training provided
• Clear career growth path into senior leadership

Why APRC?

APRC is independently owned and built for high standards: clean jobsites, clear communication, strong documentation, and fast execution. We do meaningful work for people on their worst days—and we run the operation like professionals.
