Project Manager

Dueall Construction is seeking a Project Manager to own the project: budget, schedule, contract, client, and outcome. Under our restructured Operations Department, the Project Manager also manages every position assigned to the project - office and field. With the elimination of the General Superintendent position, field oversight moves from a centralized function to the Project Manager who owns the job, and Superintendents report to the PM on their project. This is the pivotal role in the department: everything above it exists to support and multiply it, and everything below it exists to execute what it directs. We’re looking for someone who embodies our core values - growth‑oriented, process‑driven, fluid in adapting to shifting priorities, team‑focused, and equipped with a strong get‑it‑done attitude.

Position Details

• Department: Operations
• Track & Level: Project Track - Level P3
• Reports To: Project Executive, Director of Operations
• Direct Reports: Assistant Project Managers, Project Engineers, Superintendents, Assistant Superintendents, Foremen, and Field Engineers assigned to the project
• Advancement To: Senior Project Manager
• FLSA Classification: Pending classification review - to be confirmed prior to rollout

Here is the Work You Get To Do:

Financial Ownership

• Own project profit and loss from award through final payment and warranty.
• Build, maintain, and defend the monthly cost forecast and margin projection.
• Approve commitments, change orders, and pay applications within delegated authority.
• Protect margin through disciplined change management - every dollar of extra work identified, documented, and recovered.
• Manage cash: billing on cycle, collections current, retainage tracked and released.

Contract Management

• Own the owner contract - obligations, notice requirements, and schedule commitments.
• Issue timely written notice for delays, differing conditions, and owner-caused impacts. A right not noticed on time is a right lost.
• Own the change order position with the owner and negotiate to resolution.
• Manage subcontract risk - scope completeness, flow-down terms, insurance, and performance.

Schedule Ownership

• Own the master schedule and the critical path.
• Review the Superintendent’s three-week look-ahead weekly and resolve constraints the field cannot clear.
• Own recovery when the schedule slips - with a documented plan, not an assurance.
• Manage owner and design team decisions that gate field progress.

Client Relationship

• Own the owner, property manager, and design team relationship.
• Lead owner meetings and deliver honest status - including bad news, early.
• Manage resident and occupant communication on occupied properties.
• Convert delivery performance into repeat business and references.

Team Leadership

• Manage the whole project team. Every position assigned to the project reports to the Project Manager, field included.
• Set expectations and hold the team accountable to the department SOPs.
• Support the Superintendent’s authority in the field rather than undermining it.
• Develop Assistant Project Managers toward Project Manager readiness - a primary duty.
• Make and defend promotion recommendations for the project team.
