About The Position

Accelerate Your Project Management Career Villani Landshapers is hiring a decisive, organized, and growth-minded Project Manager to lead one, major long-term commercial landscape construction project from planning through completion. This is not a traditional multi-project PM role. You will fully own one large, complex installation — working daily from the job site alongside installation crews, general contractors, and internal operations. Experience on large-scale commercial or industrial projects (data centers strongly preferred) will set candidates apart. What Makes This Role Unique? You Own One Major Project — Start to Finish Lead one long-term commercial installation through planning, execution, cost control, and close-out. Field-Based Leadership You’ll work primarily from the job site in Beaver Dam — staying closely connected to crews, progress, safety, and daily operations. Real Decision-Making Authority This role requires confident, real-time decision-making in the field. You’ll be empowered — and expected — to make daily calls related to scheduling, productivity, quality control, material flow, and scope changes. This is not a “find out and get back to you” environment. The right PM evaluates situations, makes informed decisions, and keeps the project moving. Structured Ramp-Up to Full Project Ownership This role is ideal for a Project Manager who may be early in their PM career but ready to step into full responsibility. You will: • Spend approximately your first 2 months training directly alongside our current Project Manager • Learn our processes for budgeting, scheduling, cost controls, safety leadership, and stakeholder communication hands-on • Gradually assume daily leadership and decision-making • Transition into sole ownership of the project for the remainder of its duration through 2027 This is a rare opportunity to grow quickly while leading a major commercial construction project.
