Now Hiring: Senior Construction Project Manager

Commercial GC | Columbia, SC

Looking to lead projects from preconstruction through closeout — with an in‑house design team beside you instead of a wall between you?

I’m working with an award‑winning design‑build GC that’s been a fixture in the Columbia market for 20+ years. The pipeline is filled with repeat clients and steady/confirmed through 2028 — and as a Senior PM, you’re in the project from day one, not just handed a set of plans.

Why PMs are drawn to this GC
  • True design‑build — shape the project from preconstruction on
  • Deep, self‑generated backlog across industrial, healthcare, commercial
  • Columbia‑based with local/regional work — strong home‑life balance (100% local)
  • Clear growth path — they promote and mentor from within
  • Strong base + bonus + full benefits + 401k match
What you’ll own
  • Projects from preconstruction through closeout — budget, schedule, quality
  • Mentoring APMs and PEs as the team grows
  • Close collaboration with estimating, design, and field leadership
What you bring
  • 7+ years as a Project Manager with a commercial or industrial GC
  • Ground‑up commercial, industrial, or healthcare experience
  • Passion for leading & mentoring teams around you
  • Procore (or similar) experience

A stable, respected GC with the backlog and culture to build a long career on.
