  • Step in to resolve escalated issues quickly and decisively

  • Maintain strong communication with all stakeholders, including other CMs on site

  • Experience in healthcare, institutional, or occupied facility projects strongly preferred

  • Proven ability to manage projects independently or as part of a team

  • Strong understanding of interior construction and trade coordination

  • Ability to operate both in the field and at the management level

  • Proficiency with Procore or similar project management tools

  • OSHA 30 preferred

What We’re Looking For

  • Strategic thinker who can also get into the details

  • Calm, decisive leadership in high-pressure environments

  • Ability to elevate team performance quickly

Compensation

  • Salary commensurate with experience
