Jobbeschreibung

Description

Allegro is an established Cleveland based real estate and advisory firm growing its Project Management practice area. In support of this growth, we're looking to add a Construction Owners Rep/Project Manager to Our team.

A Construction Owner's Representative acts as a professional advocate for the project owner, ensuring that a construction project aligns with their vision, budget, and schedule. Unlike a construction manager who focuses on day-to-day site execution, the owner's rep provides high-level oversight across all phases—from initial planning and design to project closeout.

This is a great opportunity for a successful construction Project Manager to make the switch to the Owners Representative side of the industry.

Core Responsibilities

• Collaborate with various stakeholders to define project objectives, scope, and deliverables, ensuring they are aligned with clients' goals and expectations.

• Assists with site selection, feasibility studies, and assembling the project team by managing RFPs and bid processes.
• Develops and monitors the master budget, reviews contractor invoices, and manages change orders to prevent cost overruns.
• Creates and tracks a master project schedule that includes pre-construction (permitting/design) and post-construction (move-in/occupancy) milestones.
• Conducts regular site inspections to ensure work meets quality standards, building codes, and contractual obligations.
• Proactively identifies potential pitfalls and develops mitigation strategies to avoid delays or disputes.
• Oversees the completion of punch lists, secures warranties and as-built drawings, and manages the transition of building operations to the owner.
• Open collaboration within the company's multiple service lines to identify new opportunities to provide project management services to drive growth and expand client relationships.
• Develop client pursuit strategies, prepare individualized pursuit "Pitch Decks", host or attend client pitch meetings, secure new business, and successfully execute new project management opportunities.
