What is a tenant improvement?

A Tenant Improvement (TI) job refers to the modifications or customizations made to a commercial rental space to meet the specific needs of a tenant. These improvements can include renovations, interior build-outs, new flooring, upgraded lighting, or structural adjustments. TI projects are typically negotiated between landlords and tenants, with costs sometimes covered by a tenant improvement allowance. The goal is to create a functional and aesthetically suited space for the tenant’s business operations.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in tenant improvement, and why are they important?

To thrive in Tenant Improvement, you need a solid background in construction management, building codes, and project coordination, typically supported by relevant experience or a degree in construction or architecture. Familiarity with tools such as AutoCAD, project management software like Procore, and relevant certifications (e.g., OSHA safety certifications) is highly beneficial. Strong problem-solving, attention to detail, and excellent communication skills are essential for managing client expectations and collaborating with contractors and stakeholders. These competencies are crucial for delivering high-quality projects on schedule, meeting compliance standards, and ensuring client satisfaction.

What are some common challenges faced in tenant improvement projects, and how are they addressed?

Tenant Improvement professionals often face challenges such as tight project deadlines, coordinating between multiple stakeholders (tenants, landlords, contractors), and unforeseen site conditions that require quick decision-making. Effective project planning, clear communication, and proactive problem-solving are key strategies for overcoming these obstacles. Typically, teams hold regular meetings with clients and subcontractors to identify issues early and keep projects on track. Having a strong understanding of local building codes and a proactive approach to scheduling also helps to prevent delays and cost overruns. These practices ensure that tenant spaces are delivered on time, within budget, and to the client’s specifications.

Job description

Build Your Career With a Company That's Growing

Onesta General Contracting is looking for an experienced Tenant Improvement Project Manager to lead commercial and multifamily renovation projects from bid to final walkthrough. If you're the kind of PM who takes ownership of a job site — someone subs respect, clients trust, and your team can count on — we want to talk to you.

This isn't a "manage-from-a-desk" role. You'll be hands-on, in the field, running multiple active projects at once — leading crews, subs, and clients, with a company behind you that runs on EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System): clear priorities, clear expectations, no guesswork.

Why Project Managers choose Onesta:

  • Start Strong, Finish Strong — we want PMs with a can-do attitude who get it done, not ones who watch the clock. If that's you, you'll fit right in.

  • Always Respectful, Never Toxic — no office politics, no drama, no ego trips. Just people treating each other decently and doing good work.

  • Own It, Don't Hide It — you'll be trusted to run your projects and see them through, and we back the people who take full accountability for their work — good news and bad.

  • Prepare Humbly, Perform Confidently — you'll work alongside a team that collaborates instead of competing, where asking for help isn't a weakness.

  • Honesty is in Our Name — literally. Integrity isn't a poster on the wall here; it's the standard we hold ourselves to with clients, subs, and each other.

Compensation:

$95,000 - $135,000 yearly


Responsibilities:What You'll Own
  • Run multiple commercial and multifamily tenant improvement/renovation projects simultaneously, from start to finish

  • Build and manage project schedules, budgets, and quality control for every job you touch

  • Be the go-to contact for clients, architects, engineers, and inspectors — the person who makes the project feel effortless for the client

  • Lead subcontractors and vendors to hit deadlines without sacrificing quality or safety

  • Keep job sites safe and compliant with OSHA and industry standards

  • Spot problems before they become expensive — schedule slips, budget overruns, scope creep — and solve them fast

  • Get in front of new work: identify opportunities, put together estimates and bids, and run the job if you win it


Qualifications:What You Bring
  • Proven experience managing commercial and/or multifamily renovation or tenant improvement construction projects

  • Solid working knowledge of OSHA standards and construction industry regulations

  • Experience with estimating, bidding, scheduling, and budget management

  • The organizational chops to run several projects and competing priorities without dropping the ball

  • Strong, clear communication — with clients, crews, and leadership alike

  • Comfort working in an active construction environment: walking/standing on job sites, climbing ladders, navigating scaffolding, wearing PPE

  • A valid driver's license and willingness to travel between job sites
