Construction Project Manager

Real Estate Development & Construction | Full-Time | Greater Houston, TX | 5+ Years Required

─────────────────────────────────────────

WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR

An experienced construction professional who has run ground-up projects from permit to certificate of occupancy — someone who manages subcontractors, holds schedules accountable, and knows what it takes to deliver on time and on budget. This is a hands-on role. You will own your projects. If you need to be supervised, this is not the right fit.

ABOUT US

We are a real estate development and construction company with an active portfolio of residential and commercial projects across the greater Houston area. We handle the full lifecycle — land, permitting, construction, and delivery — and we're adding a Construction Project Manager to take ownership of active and upcoming jobs as we grow.

- Drive the submittal and RFI process; manage document flow between engineers, architects, and subs

- Build and maintain project schedules; identify delays early and drive recovery plans

- Review and approve pay applications, change orders, invoices, and lien waivers

- Maintain complete project documentation: contracts, permits, submittals, logs, and closeout packages

- Coordinate with ownership on project status, budget tracking, and decisions requiring escalation

- Manage relationships with city officials, utility companies, and permitting departments

REQUIREMENTS

- 5+ years of hands-on construction project management experience — ground-up residential, commercial, or both

- Proven track record managing projects from $500K to $5M+ independently, from permit through CO

- Full plan reading ability — structural, architectural, civil, and MEP documents

- Deep understanding of the Houston-area permitting and inspection process

- Experience with lien waivers, AIA pay applications, and construction contracts

- Proficient in project scheduling; MS Project, Procore, or Buildertrend experience preferred
