Developer Operations Project Manager Jobs in Farmington, MI

We are seeking a strong, customer-focused Operations/Project Manager to lead cross-functional coordination between Sales, Contract Processing, Job Scoping, and Production.

The ideal candidate is highly organized, operationally disciplined, and confident working across multiple departments. This person will serve as an escalation point when files are incomplete, contract details do not align with scope, or customer requirements need clarification before production can move forward.

This is not a passive administrative role. We are looking for a leader who can drive accountability, resolve issues efficiently, communicate directly with customers, and keep projects moving without becoming the default dumping ground for unresolved departmental problems.

• Support the Scoping team when field conditions or project requirements do not match the signed contract
• Escalate and resolve scope discrepancies, contract inconsistencies, and other job-related issues
• Coordinate with the appropriate departments to determine next steps, revisions, and approvals
• Help ensure the final scope is accurate and aligned before production begins

• Communicate directly with customers to confirm requirements, clarify expectations, and resolve open items
• Ensure all customer requirements are met prior to production
• Provide a high level of professionalism and service throughout the project readiness process
• Identify upsell opportunities when appropriate, including situations where financing may support additional scope

• Keep jobs moving by resolving issues quickly and holding the right teams accountable
• Maintain clear boundaries so the role supports solutions without becoming the catch-all for every unresolved problem
• Improve workflow and execution by identifying recurring issues and helping strengthen process discipline
• Partner with leadership to improve handoffs, file quality, cycle time, and customer experience

• 3+ years of experience in operations, project coordination, production support, contract administration, or a related leadership role
• Experience working cross-functionally with sales, operations, customer service, and field or production teams
• Strong customer communication and conflict resolution skills
• Ability to manage multiple priorities and keep projects moving in a fast-paced environment
• Strong problem-solving skills and sound operational judgment
• Proven ability to drive accountability across departments
• Experience in construction, remodeling, home improvement, restoration, or other project-based service industries preferred
• College Degree a plus

• Cross-functional leadership
• Escalation management
• Customer service
• Contract and scope review
• Process improvement
