About the Project
We are building a small-footprint, high-end hospitality property in the
Northeast US. The owner is acting as general contractor. We're hiring a remote
part-time Construction Project Manager to be the project office — keeping
schedule, money, and procurement on track so the owner can spend his time
on-site and with subcontractors, not chasing paperwork.
What You'll Do
- Schedule: Build and maintain the master schedule.
Sequence trades, track critical path, flag slips early.
- Bid leveling: Run apples-to-apples comparisons across subcontractor bids
(excavation, framing, electrical, plumbing, deck, pools, etc.). Surface scope
gaps.
- Sub coordination: Manage mobilization dates, RFIs, change orders, punch
lists. Draft clear, professional
- Procurement: Track lead times, deposits, and delivery windows for structural
materials, modular elements, fixtures, and FF&E from US and overseas
suppliers.
- Document control: Organize drawings, RFIs, submittals, and inspection
reports in Google Drive with clean, consistent naming.
- Cost tracking: Maintain a running tally vs. the project budget by line item.
Flag overages before they compound.
- Site documentation review: Review weekly photos/video from the field for
quality and completeness.
- Invoice review & AP: Verify vendor invoices against scope, flag
discrepancies, queue for owner approval.
- Sourcing coordination including international (China) sourcing if you have
that experience.
You're a Strong Fit If You Have
- 2+ years of construction management, project engineering, architecture, or
civil engineering experience
- A degree in construction management, civil engineering, or architecture
- Worked on US-based commercial or high-end residential projects
- Solid familiarity with US building products and conventions — dimensional
lumber, framing standards, mechanical/electrical/plumbing systems
- A track record of sequencing trades and spotting critical-path risk
- Strong written English — you'll draft RFI
weekly status reports
- A bias toward proposing solutions, not just flagging problems
