We are seeking a Project Manager to bring structure, discipline, and follow-through to the planning and administrative side of production to efficiently and effectively complement our superintendent.

This Project Manager role completes that system by owning the planning, structure, and administrative control that field execution depends on: schedules, procurement, budgets, change orders, documentation, coordination, and closeout. This removes any friction during execution by the superintendent and field crews.

Together, the Project Manager props each project up for execution by the Superintendent who will drive production. Project Manager will be involved during each project by ensuring they stay organized, supplied, documented, and profitable.

Key Responsibilities

·        Interpret construction plans and own the procurement workflow: prepare and track POs, confirm lead times, and ensure correct specs and on-time delivery

·        Create/maintain benchmark checklists (e.g., forms up → schedule survey; pile phase → inspection; cap pour → next steps)

·        Build and maintain project schedules aligned with barge and crew movements, tides, inspections, subcontractor availability, and material lead times

·        Track budgets, cost-to-complete, and budget-to-actual; flag risks early to protect margins

·        Prepare, document, and route change orders (scope, pricing, approval, and filing)

·        Coordinate inspections, permitting requirements, and municipal/agency touchpoints

·        Maintain project documentation: panel pile and anchor logs, correspondence, approvals, plan sets, and job records

·        Produce weekly look-ahead and concise status updates for leadership and (as directed) for clients

·        Close loops: ensure open items are tracked, assigned, and completed (no ‘out of sight, out of mind’)

Required Experience & Skillset

·        3+ years in fast-paced, multi-project construction, managing multiple active jobs at once (roofing, pools, restoration, or service-based construction). Marine, civil, or structural experience is a bonus.

·        Demonstrated experience owning schedules, budgets/cost tracking, documentation, and multi-relationship coordination

·        Proficiency with Buildertrend (or similar CRM), Excel, and modern communication tools

·        Ability to read plans, permits, scopes, and perform basic takeoffs / materials forecasting

·        Strong written communication and follow-through (able to memorialize decisions and keep a clean paper trail)

·        High level of organization, prioritization, and follow-through

·        Comfortable making decisions in the field and adapting to changing conditions

Preferred (Not Required)

·        Marine construction or waterfront-specific background

·        Experience with Truline or similar seawall systems

·        Familiarity with South Florida coastal construction conditions

·        Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings and surveys

What We Offer

·        Competitive salary based on experience

·        Performance-based growth opportunities

·        Company vehicle or vehicle allowance (if applicable)

·        7 Paid Holidays per year

·        Health, Dental, Vision Insurance

·        401(k) retirement plan

·        A leadership role in a growing, well-respected marine construction company

·        Projects you can take pride in—built to last in demanding environments
