Construction Project Manager Jobs in Rolesville, NC

Location: Raleigh, NC
Job Type: Full-Time
Salary: $95,000$110,000+ annually, based on experience
Additional Compensation: Project and performance-based bonus opportunities

We are recruiting on behalf of an established and highly respected commercial general contractor in Raleigh, NC seeking an experienced Commercial Construction Project Manager to join its growing team.

This is an opportunity for a well-rounded construction professional who wants true ownership of their projects. Rather than working within a highly departmentalized environment, the Project Manager will be involved throughout the full construction lifecycle from preconstruction and project planning through subcontractor buyout, scheduling, financial management, execution, and final client turnover.

The ideal candidate has approximately 5-10+ years of commercial construction experience and understands what it takes to manage the overall health of a project - not simply one portion of it. Experience managing medical, healthcare, or hospital construction projects is a strong plus.

This team values people who are humble, hungry, smart, accountable, and committed to doing right by their clients and teammates.

As a Commercial Construction Project Manager, you will take ownership of projects from inception through completion while serving as a key point of contact for clients, subcontractors, architects, engineers, and internal team members.

Key responsibilities include:

• Manage commercial construction projects from preconstruction through closeout and client turnover
• Partner with estimating and preconstruction teams to understand project scope, budget, constructability, and potential risks
• Develop, review, and negotiate subcontractor scopes of work and subcontract exhibits
• Manage subcontractor procurement, coordination, communication, and performance
• Draft and administer owner contracts, including AIA contracts
• Prepare, submit, and track pay applications
• Develop, maintain, and actively manage project schedules and critical-path activities
• Coordinate trades and proactively identify potential scheduling conflicts, delays, and cost impacts
• Maintain responsibility for project financial performance, budgets, forecasting, and job costing
• Review and manage monthly job cost reports and accurately project upcoming costs
• Monitor project profitability and identify financial risks before they become problems
• Review subcontractor scopes for gaps, exclusions, and out-of-scope work
• Manage RFIs, submittals, change orders, documentation, and other project controls
• Communicate proactively with clients, architects, engineers, subcontractors, and internal stakeholders
• Maintain high standards for project quality, safety, schedule, and client satisfaction
• Develop complete estimate and proposal/RFP packages when needed
• Build strong client relationships from the earliest stages of a project through final completion

• 5-10+ years of commercial construction experience, ideally with a general contractor
• Demonstrated experience managing commercial projects through the full project lifecycle
• Strong understanding of project budgets, job costing, forecasting, and financial management
• Experience developing and managing subcontractor scopes, buyout, contracts, and trade coordination
• Strong scheduling and critical-path management skills
• Ability to read and interpret construction drawings, specifications, contracts, and scopes of work
• Proven ability to anticipate project challenges and proactively develop solutions
• Strong client-facing communication and relationship-management skills
• Highly organized with strong attention to detail and follow-through
• Collaborative, accountable, and comfortable working within a lean, hands-on project team
• A stable work history and interest in building a long-term career with an organization are strongly valued

• Medical, healthcare, or hospital construction project experience
• Experience with complex commercial projects requiring significant trade coordination
• Experience participating in preconstruction and estimating activities
• Familiarity with AIA contracting and commercial construction payment processes

You are a Project Manager who wants to own the whole project, not simply hand work off from one department to another.

You understand the schedule, but you also understand the numbers. You can sit down with a client, negotiate scope with a subcontractor, review a job cost report, identify a potential problem before it impacts the project, and work alongside your team to find the right solution.

Most importantly, you are looking for an organization where you can build a long-term career, continue growing, and have a meaningful impact on the projects and clients you serve.

• Base salary of approximately $95,000$110,000+, depending on experience
• Project-based and performance-based bonus opportunities
• Competitive benefits package
• Long-term growth and advancement opportunities
• Collaborative, team-oriented work environment
• Employee Health Insurance
• Opportunity to work with an established commercial general contractor with a strong reputation in the Southeast

If you are an experienced Commercial Construction Project Manager in the Raleigh, NC market looking for greater project ownership, professional growth, and the opportunity to join a strong and established commercial construction team, we encourage you to apply.
