Assistant Project Manager – Commercial Interiors Construction

About the role

If you're early in a project management career and want work that actually teaches you something, this is it. Our Assistant Project Managers run alongside seasoned PMs and field leadership starting week one—supporting live commercial jobs, learning how coordination really works, and picking up the judgment that separates good construction managers from paper-pushers. We fill our senior roles from the inside, so the people who show up and produce move up.

  • Monitor milestones and deliverables so schedules and budgets hold
  • Flag inefficiencies and bring forward ideas that tighten up how the team operates
• Records and Standards
  • Partner with field teams to hold workmanship standards and meet owner expectations
  • Maintain job records—contracts, submittals, change documentation
  • Confirm work matches project specifications and internal quality benchmarks
• When Problems Come Up
  • Get involved early and help develop practical fixes before small issues get expensive
  • Coordinate between internal groups and outside partners to keep production moving

Requirements

• Degree in Construction Management, Project Management, or a related field—or equivalent time in the trade

• Clear communicator, verbally and in writing
