Senior Construction Project Manager

About the role

Hughes Marino is a nationally recognized, award-winning corporate real estate advisory firm specializing in representing occupiers, never landlords. Our Construction Project Management practice serves as owner's representative and third-party CM for some of the most dynamic companies in the country, guiding clients through complex projects with independent, conflict-free expertise.

What You'll Own

• Full lifecycle owner's rep / third-party CM oversight of multiple concurrent Energetics, Hardware Technology, Advanced Manufacturing, and Industrial construction projects, from inception through completion and closeout
• Day-to-day management of complex, mission-critical projects on behalf of the client, with direct accountability to their executive stakeholders
• Development and stewardship of project budgets, schedules, and client-directed milestones, independent of GC or design team interests
• Assembly, procurement, and leadership of full project teams on the client's behalf: architects, engineers, GCs, furniture vendors, and specialty contractors
• Mentorship and management of up to two internal Hughes Marino PMs or project engineers
• Change order review and negotiation, invoicing oversight, TI allowance reimbursement, and project closeout, all from the owner's perspective
• Ongoing collaboration with Hughes Marino advisors and client stakeholders as project requirements evolve

What We're Looking For

• 7-10 years of construction project management experience, ideally with time spent in an owner's rep, third-party CM, or client-side PM role
• Experience with Energetics, Hardware Technology, Advanced Manufacturing, or Industrial construction projects strongly preferred
• Candidates coming from GC or subcontractor backgrounds are welcome, but must demonstrate a genuine shift to owner-side advocacy and perspective
• Design-Build experience strongly preferred
• Experience with tenant improvement projects strongly preferred
• Proven ability to manage and hold accountable external vendors and design teams while simultaneously leading internal junior staff
• Sharp communicator, written and verbal, comfortable presenting to and advising C-suite stakeholders
• Self-directed, deadline-driven, and adaptable across multiple active projects in a fast-moving environment

Compensation & Details

• Base salary: $150,000 - $190,000 depending on experience and qualifications
• Competitive benefits package and long-term career growth within Hughes Marino
• Combination of remote and onsite work; minimum 2-3 days per week onsite required
• Regular travel to project sites as required
• Bachelor's degree required, preferably in Construction Management, Engineering, or Architecture
