HELM Construction Solutions is on a mission to transform the building industry. Founded ten years ago, we're a planet- and people-forward firm with expertise in construction, management, leadership, and training. We work with nonprofits, community organizations, and mission-driven clients on capital projects that genuinely matter and we're looking for a collaborative, experienced project manager to grow with us.

As an Owner's Project Manager at HELM, you'll work directly with nonprofit and community organizations on projects that are interesting, varied, and impactful. You'll support clients through design, pre-construction, and construction phases - bringing organized, efficient, and collaborative processes to every stage. Recent work includes the adaptive reuse of a historic downtown church into affordable housing with a small business on the main level, a new lodge at a rural Maine camp supporting programming for students and teachers, and the transformation of a former library into a vibrant performing arts center. No two projects are the same - and through your expertise and engagement, you'll make a real contribution to each project's success and to the communities they serve.

• Serve as Owner's Project Manager for nonprofit and community-based capital projects, providing feasibility analysis, budget planning, permit coordination, team selection, and overall project management
• Coordinate project teams - including general contractors, architects, and consultants - with scheduling, agendas, meeting facilitation, and follow-up
• Track total project budgets, review invoices and change orders, and support clients in identifying phasing strategies and funding opportunities
• Coordinate permitting, including identifying requirements and facilitating applications with the project team

• Represent HELM in business development: responding to RFPs, taking sales calls, making presentations, and putting together proposals

• At least 10 years of experience in commercial and/or multifamily residential construction or project management
• Experience tracking project budgets across all phases, from conceptual design through construction
• Familiarity with financial analysis, including feasibility estimates and development pro formas
• Strong writing and communication skills, and confidence facilitating meetings and presenting to clients
• Comfort working independently in a virtual environment

Experience with nonprofit or housing development projects is a strong plus, as is familiarity with green building, Passive House, net-zero, or Living Building Challenge but we're happy to support the right person in building knowledge in these areas.
