Delivering Excellence in Talent Acquisition

About Us

At Vitality, we specialize in recruiting top-tier talent across the Construction and Real Estate Development sectors. We partner with leading General Contractors, Developers, and Specialty Contractors to place professionals in roles where they can thrive—and lead.

This role is with one of our most respected clients in the commercial construction space. If your experience aligns with the position, we’ll connect with you directly to share full details (including the company name) before submitting your resume. We also represent additional senior-level opportunities that may not be publicly listed.

Step Into a Leadership Role That Moves the Needle

Are you a seasoned construction leader looking for the next pivotal move in your career? As a Senior Project Manager, you’ll take the helm of high-value, high-visibility projects and guide teams through every stage—from preconstruction to closeout. You’ll serve as a key decision-maker, mentor, and strategic partner, with a direct line to executive leadership.

This is more than a project management role—it’s a platform for long-term growth and impact. If you’re ready to own results, lead with purpose, and be a go-to leader on marquee builds, let’s talk.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Major Projects: Lead high-profile commercial builds ranging from $50M to $200M+
• Executive Visibility: Report directly to VP-level leadership and influence business outcomes
• Strategic Ownership: Play a central role in budgeting, scheduling, contract strategy, and client negotiations
• Talent Development: Mentor and grow junior PMs, engineers, and field teams
• Growth Trajectory: Clear path to Director or Project Executive roles

What You’ll Lead

• Total project oversight—from early budgeting through delivery and final punch
• Owner and architect relationships, negotiations, and communication
• Internal team leadership and coordination with Superintendents, Precon, and Safety
• Risk management, value engineering, cost controls, and change order strategies
• Reporting on project KPIs to ownership and senior stakeholders
• Support in business development and pursuit strategy when needed

Let’s Build What’s Next—Together

If you're ready to lead major projects, shape teams, and make a lasting impact—this is your opportunity. Apply today and take the next bold step in your leadership career.
