Every project we undertake is guided by collaboration, clear communication, and a shared commitment to excellence. Our mission is simple: to transform the home-building experience — building not just extraordinary homes, but enduring trust and meaningful relationships along the way. We are seeking an Assistant Project Manager / Superintendent to play a key supporting role in delivering the firm’s high-caliber residential projects. This junior-level position is ideal for an emerging construction professional eager to learn the craft of custom homebuilding from the ground up — blending technical knowledge, project coordination, and on-site management in a fast-paced, hands-on environment.

Core Responsibilities include: Field Coordination & Site Management • Support the Superintendent in overseeing daily jobsite operations and maintaining a safe, clean, and organized site. • Help coordinate subcontractors, deliveries, and sequencing of trades. • Conduct daily walkthroughs and report on progress, safety, and workmanship. • Maintain accurate site logs, photos, and reports in project management software (Procore). Quality & Craftsmanship • Assist in reviewing field work against plans, specifications, and details — ensuring alignment with firm’s standards for quality. • Identify and communicate potential issues early to maintain smooth execution. • Participate in punch list and quality-control inspections throughout the project. Communication & Collaboration • Act as a liaison between field teams, project management, and design professionals. • Help distribute drawings, updates, and RFI responses to the field. • Support documentation of field changes and coordinate timely updates with the project team. Planning & Scheduling • Assist in updating short-term schedules and trade coordination plans. • Track progress against milestones and anticipate upcoming work or constraints. • Participate in team meetings to align on goals, priorities, and next steps. Qualifications: • Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Architecture, Engineering, or related field preferred. • 0–3 years of relevant field experience (internships or co-ops welcome). • Familiarity with residential construction drawings, sequencing, and terminology. • Working knowledge of Microsoft Office, Google Workspace, and construction management tools. • Strong communication, organization, and problem-solving skills. • Eagerness to learn, contribute, and grow within a collaborative, high-expectation environment. • OSHA 10-Hour certification (or willingness to obtain upon hire). Core Attributes • Genuine curiosity about the craft and process of building. • Integrity, reliability, and a commitment to follow-through. • Respectful communication and teamwork. • A calm, proactive approach to solving problems on site. • Pride in quality and attention to detail. This position offers mentorship and a clear path toward becoming a Superintendent within the firm. Please submit your resume in Word or PDF format for immediate consideration. This is an incredible opportunity to gain firsthand experience in site leadership, trade coordination, and the fine details of custom home building — learning not only how homes are built, but how great projects and client relationships are made.
