Build strong relationships with clients, consultants, subcontractors, and suppliers.
Lead project meetings and maintain clear communication among all parties.
Ensure projects meet safety, quality, contractual, and company requirements.

At least seven years of progressive construction project management experience.
Project management experience working for a general contractor.
Experience managing commercial construction projects from start to finish.
Strong knowledge of project budgets, schedules, costs, forecasts, and change orders.
Experience leading project teams and working directly with clients, consultants, and subcontractors.
Ability to read and interpret construction drawings, specifications, and contracts.
Strong leadership, organization, decision-making, and problem-solving skills.
Clear written and verbal communication skills.
Proficiency with Microsoft Office and construction project management software.
