Job Description

Job Details:

ASSISTANT CONSTRUCTION PROJECT MANAGER

Currently seeking an Assistant Project Manager (APM) to support large-scale, high-end residential projects across New York City. This is a hands-on project coordination role focused on the “paper and systems” side of construction—meetings, Procore hygiene, bid coordination, schedules, and logistics—supporting multiple Project Managers across multiple jobs.

The ideal candidate is highly organized, detail-oriented, calm under pressure, and thrives in a client-facing environment with architects, designers, and ultra-high-net-worth homeowners. This is a strong opportunity to deepen along a Project Management track and grow into a full PM role over time.

Key Responsibilities
Support multiple Project Managers across multiple active projects
Coordinate meeting agendas, minutes, follow-ups, and decision tracking
Maintain Procore as a reliable source of truth (RFIs, submittals, drawings, logs)
Assist with estimating, bid coordination, and proposal organization
Support schedule updates and distribute three-week look-aheads
Assist with project logistics, permits, and utility coordination (PG&E, jurisdictions, etc.)
Support change orders, client billing assistance, and closeout documentation
Maintain a steady, professional presence in client- and architect-facing settings
Build strong working relationships with PMs, Superintendents, subcontractors, and design teams

Hard Skills
Strong working knowledge of Procore (plans, RFIs, submittals; ideally punch lists)
Competent with spreadsheets for bid tracking and light bid leveling
Familiarity with Microsoft Project (or similar CPM scheduling tools)
Comfortable supporting estimating and budgeting workflows (RFQs/RFPs, bid tracking, organizing proposals)
Strong written communication (client-ready meeting minutes, emails, and documentation)

Soft Skills
Highly organized and detail-oriented
Calm, professional, and solutions-oriented under pressure
Strong follow-through — tracks tasks to completion without letting things die between parties
Collaborative, low-ego team player comfortable supporting multiple PMs
High emotional intelligence and client-service mindset
Curious, growth-minded, and interested in progressing toward greater ownership over time

Qualifications
2-5 years in construction project support roles (APM, Project Engineer, or similar)
High-end custom residential experience strongly preferred (or similar complexity)
Experience working with architects, designers, and demanding homeowner/client reps is a plus
Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Architecture, or related field preferred (not required with strong experience)
Valid driver’s license and reliable vehicle for jobsite travel
