Senior Project Manager - Construction
Orange, CA
Full Time
Experienced
We are looking for an outgoing leader that wants to be a part of changing an industry while having a lot of fun doing it. We all work extremely hard every day and love it. We are certainly a “get it done” type company so if you would like to hide in a cubicle, this job is not for you.
We are seeking a qualified Sr. Project Manager with a passion for getting the job done right the first time to come join our team. Our ideal candidate will be trusted to dive right in, take the lead, use initiative, and develop relationships to meet or exceed our organizational objectives - 5X the company in five years!
POSITION SUMMARY
The position of the Sr. Project Manager is responsible for planning, implementing, and tracking projects which include installation. This role is accountable for the success of projects, often coordinating efforts across departments, and reporting progress to the organization pushing toward their shared goals. Also responsible for communicating and collaborating with Field Superintendents and Project Coordinators to meet customer needs and expectations.
You must understand all the phases of permitting and inspections of the construction project. You need to know when to call for inspections on a project, how to deal with building departments and inspectors (typically over the phone).
We also expect you to be a master in communication. We believe that relationships are built on being straightforward, overly communicative and emails only used to follow up on what everyone agreed to. A client should never call us to ask us the status, we should always be reaching out with a phone call, and following up with an email.
RESPONSIBILITIES
This job description in no way states or implies that these are the only duties to be performed by this employee. The employee will be required to follow any other instructions and to perform any other duties upon request of the supervisor.

Occasional travel for customer visits, job site installation and other company facilities.
