What We Are Looking For

We are looking for a construction-minded Project Manager, not just a documentation coordinator.

The candidate should understand how projects are actually built, be capable of reviewing drawings and specifications, identifying potential issues, coordinating multiple trades, managing project documentation, and independently following tasks through completion.
