Pmo Manager Jobs in Alabama (NOW HIRING)

Luxury Residential Design-Build

Homewood, Alabama

ELM Construction is a luxury residential design-build remodeling firm serving the greater Birmingham metro - Mountain Brook, Vestavia Hills, Homewood, and Hoover. We don't just renovate homes; we transform them. Our tight-knit team of designers, project managers, and craftspeople takes pride in delivering an exceptional experience from the first phone call to the final walkthrough. We're a small company - intentionally so. That means your work matters, your voice is heard, and you'll never wonder whether you made an impact. If you thrive in an environment where not two days look the same, and you genuinely enjoy being the person who keeps everything running smoothly, keep reading.

We're looking for an Office Manager who is equal parts detail-oriented operator and people-first professional. You'll be the first face clients see when they walk through our door, the first voice they hear when they call, and the person behind the scenes making sure our team has everything they need to do their best work. This role touches nearly every part of our business - financial operations, project coordination, HR, client communication, office culture, and executive support. You won't be bored. You will be busy. And you'll have the autonomy and trust to own your responsibilities without someone looking over your shoulder. Fair warning: if you need a rigid job description with a perfectly defined lane, this probably isn't the right fit. But if you love variety, take pride in doing things right, and want to be a true contributor to a growing company, we'd love to meet you.
