“We’re not just renovating spaces. We’re redefining the standard.”

Renovation Manager – Multifamily Renovations

Location: On the Road | Job Type: Full-Time | Pay: From $85,000/year

Company Overview:

At Smart Build, we're not just renovating spaces, we're redefining the standard for multifamily and commercial renovations. What began nearly 20 years ago as a small coatings company (Smart Coats) has grown into one of the region’s largest and most respected renovation service providers.

In 2018, we rebranded as Smart Build to reflect our expanded capabilities: from detailed take-offs and precise carpentry to full-scale capital projects. We’ve completed over 200+ units spanning apartment complexes, condominium associations, retail buildings, and office spaces, each with a sharp focus on quality, efficiency, and client satisfaction.

But what really sets us apart isn’t just what we do, it’s how we do it:

• Growth-minded team that values ownership, continuous improvement, and results
• Lean operations that let us move fast without bureaucracy
• Customer-first mindset that drives repeat business and long-term partnerships
• National reach with strong roots in Greater Boston, allowing us to scale without losing our personal touch

We’re in an exciting phase of growth, and we’re building a team that’s ready to scale with us. If you’re someone who wants to make a real impact, be trusted to do great work, and grow your career, not just clock in, we’d love to talk.

Why This Role Matters:

We're not looking for just another Renovations Manager, we’re looking for a Rockstar who can lead, deliver, and scale with us. As we continue to expand our footprint in multifamily renovations, we need someone who thrives under pressure, communicates clearly, and can juggle multiple high-impact projects without missing a beat.

If you're someone who takes ownership, keeps things moving, and solves problems before they surface, this is your stage.

What Success Looks Like in This Role (First 6–12 Months):

• Successfully manage 3–5 concurrent multifamily renovation projects, including unit upgrades and capital projects
• Build strong relationships with subcontractors, vendors, and property management teams
• Deliver each project on time and within budget
• Implement and enforce OSHA-compliant safety procedures across all sites
• Optimize workflows by improving procurement, scheduling, and resource allocation
• Document all phases with detailed reporting, including before/after images and milestone tracking
• Establish a repeatable, scalable process for subcontractor evaluation and training

Key Responsibilities:

Project Oversight:

• Manage multiple rehab and capital improvement projects across different client sites.
• Assist in preparing project budgets, scopes of work, and cost breakdowns.
• Organize and track inventory, materials, and deliveries across multiple locations.
• Maintain OSHA and internal safety compliance procedures.

Subcontractor & Procurement Management:

• Source, evaluate, and manage subcontractors across various trades.
• Prepare detailed scopes of work for subcontractor bidding and comparison analysis.
• Train and onboard subcontractors/employees to align with company goals and ROI targets.
• Schedule and manage production timelines, coordinating closely with subcontractors and property teams.

Operational Excellence:

• Maintain and implement standardized rehab and capital expenditure (CapEx) procedures.
• Track project progress with accurate documentation: daily logs, sign-in sheets, specifications, safety records, before/after photos, and more.
• Manage administrative functions such as data entry, file management, and use of project management software to keep all stakeholders informed and organized.

Client & Property Relations:

• Schedule work in collaboration with property management teams.
• Conduct project walk-throughs and punch-outs as necessary.
• Provide ongoing updates to clients during and after project execution to ensure satisfaction.

Your Must-Haves

• Proven success in managing multifamily rehab and capex projects
• Ability to manage multiple projects and adapt quickly to shifting priorities
• Strong knowledge of OSHA safety procedures
• Excellent organizational skills, you keep projects on track without being micromanaged
• Confidence using Excel, SmartSheets, and construction management tools
• A strong network of reliable subs across key trades is a major plus

Why You’ll Love Working Here:

• You’ll have ownership of your work, no micromanagement, just clear expectations
• Your performance matters more than politics, we measure success by results
• We’re growing, and we promote from within, career advancement is real

Benefits include:

• 401(k) with matching
• Paid Time Off & Holidays

Ready to Make an Impact? If you're confident in your ability to lead projects, motivate subcontractors, and exceed expectations, we want to talk to you.

Who We Are

Good Pizza opened in January 2025 with a simple mission: prove that pizza by the slice doesn't have to mean cutting corners. We make everything from scratch - fresh dough, house-blended cheese, handmade sauces, dressings, etc. - and we're obsessed with perfecting every detail.

We're building a brand that stands for craft, ownership, and hospitality - with our sights set on becoming one of Cleveland's best restaurants. And we're just getting started - growth is part of the plan, with multiple locations on the horizon.

The Role

We're looking for a Front of House Manager who understands that great hospitality is both an art and a system. Someone who can work the register during the lunch rush and then step back to think strategically about labor costs, team culture, and guest experience.

You'll spend about 60-80% of your time working stations - register, expo, counter service - leading by example during service. The other 20-40% is management work: scheduling, payroll, training, hiring, and partnering with our Sous Chef to run a tight operation.

Here's what that looks like

Guest Experience & Service:

• Set the standard for hospitality at Good Pizza
• Train and develop FOH staff to deliver exceptional service
• Handle guest feedback and turn problems into fans
• Maintain our dining room like it's your own living room

Labor & Operations:

• Manage total restaurant labor to our 38% target (you own this metric for FOH + BOH)
• Create FOH schedules and work with our Sous Chef to optimize overall staffing
• Process payroll for the entire team
• Handle HR - performance issues, conflicts, keeping the team strong

Team Building:

• Lead FOH hiring from start to finish
• Partner with our Sous Chef on kitchen hiring
• Build a culture where people actually want to show up
• Develop your team - we promote from within whenever we can

Who Thrives Here

You're the right fit if:

• You're passionate about hospitality and believe details matter
• You're self-motivated and goal-oriented - you don't need someone looking over your shoulder
• You're kind, caring, and genuinely want your team to succeed
• You can work the rush and then sit down to analyze labor reports without missing a beat
• You see problems as opportunities to build better systems
• You want to be part of building something, not just managing what exists

You're not the right fit if:

• You think "manager" means delegating everything and staying in the office
• You're looking for a 9-5 with minimal weekend work
• You're satisfied with "good enough" instead of pushing for excellent

What We're Looking For

Required:

• 2+ years restaurant leadership experience (FOH focused)
• Experience with scheduling, payroll, and labor cost management
• Track record of hiring, training, and developing teams
• Full availability (including weekends and evenings)
• Ability to work 45-50 hours per week, mostly on your feet

Nice to Have:

• Experience partnering closely with kitchen leadership
• Both quick service and full-service restaurant experience
• Multi-unit restaurant experience

What We Offer

Compensation & Growth:

• Base salary: $46,000-$52,000 (based on experience), PLUS:
• Performance bonuses tied to labor %, revenue, guest satisfaction, and team retention (up to $10,000 annually)
• Profit sharing opportunities as we grow
• Real growth path: as we expand to multiple locations, strong performers move into GM or multi-unit roles

Benefits & Perks:

• 2 weeks PTO to start (increases with tenure)
• Free meals during shifts
• Flexible scheduling (once you've proven yourself and built the systems)
• Professional development opportunities (conferences, training, learning budget)
• Quarterly performance bonuses

Culture:

• Small, tight team where your impact is immediate and visible
• Ownership mentality - we want your ideas and initiative
• Direct line to ownership (no bureaucracy)
• Be part of something from the early stages
