Project Manager (Facilities) 5yrs

About the role

Modern Construction Services is a fast growing, certified WBENC women-owned commercial construction and facilities maintenance company based in Charlotte, NC. We are hiring a Senior Project Manager to lead our contractor-side execution: a hands-on leader who runs renovations, retrofits, and multi-trade projects, and coaches a small team of specialists who do the same. This is a general contractor side role, not an owner-side facilities job.

Responsibilities

• Lead and coach a team of three to five Project Specialists who manage contractor-side execution, and step in when a project goes sideways.
• Own GC-side execution on renovations, retrofits, and facility upgrades: review estimates and scopes, sequence the trades, and manage subcontractors and field personnel.
• Get out to job sites across the US to validate work, resolve field-level issues, and keep multi-trade projects on schedule.
• Qualify subcontractor estimates and validate scopes so problems get caught before they reach the field, not after.
• Partner with Safety and Compliance to keep job sites safe, OSHA-compliant, and up to standard.
• Track KPIs, tighten workflows, and keep data clean across platforms like Fexa, Avetta, Corrigo, and Coupa.

Requirements

• Five or more years of facilities project management on the contractor side. We are a general contractor. Owner-side, client-side, or provider-perspective facilities management is a different world than ours.
• Two or more years supervising project teams.
• Experience managing $1 million to $3 million construction projects.
• Hands-on trade knowledge, with electrical or HVAC preferred.
• A strong grasp of GC workflows, estimating, and sequencing, plus experience managing subcontractors and field personnel.
• Comfortable in a fast-paced, execution-heavy environment, ideally you have run projects end to end or run your own construction business.
• Preferred: PMP or equivalent, OSHA 10 (minimum), and CMMS experience (Fexa, ServiceChannel, Corrigo, Coupa, Procore).

Qualifications

• You are a contractor at heart who has run projects end to end and knows how the work comes together in the field.
• You like leading a team and getting out to job sites, not managing from a desk.
• You want your pay to reflect what you and your team deliver.

Pay

• Base Salary: Up to $95,000
• On-Target Earnings: $150,000
• Bonus: Quarterly, Individual bonus + team bonus + company performance bonus

Benefits

• Health Care Plan (Medical, Dental & Vision)
• Retirement Plan (401k, IRA)
• Life Insurance (Basic, Voluntary & AD&D)
• Paid Time Off (Vacation, Sick & Public Holidays)
