About The Position

We are hiring an experienced Project Manager / Estimator to manage roofing, waterproofing, deck coating, exterior restoration, and tenant improvement projects from initial evaluation through final closeout. We are specifically looking for someone who can walk a project, identify the required scope, prepare accurate labor and material pricing, present the proposal, secure the contract, and manage successful field execution. This is not a desk-only Project Manager or estimating-support position. The person hired will take direct responsibility for clients, project schedules, crews, subcontractors, budgets, change orders, and profitability. The role also includes business development. While the company provides incoming opportunities, you must be comfortable building relationships with property managers, HOA communities, general contractors, commercial property owners, and referral partners.

• Experience preparing detailed labor, material, equipment, and subcontractor pricing
• Experience working with multifamily, HOA, commercial, or property management clients
• Strong understanding of project scheduling, budgeting, field production, change orders, and profitability
• Ability to manage multiple crews, subcontractors, vendors, clients, and active jobsites
• Strong communication, negotiation, organization, follow-up, and problem-solving skills
• Ability to take full accountability for project execution, client satisfaction, and financial results

Responsibilities

• Perform job walks, field measurements, and existing-condition assessments
• Estimate roofing, waterproofing, deck coating, balcony repair, exterior restoration, and tenant improvement projects
• Develop labor, material, equipment, and subcontractor pricing
• Prepare proposals, scopes of work, exclusions, clarifications, and pricing options
• Present proposals, negotiate terms, follow up, and secure profitable contracts
• Manage awarded projects from planning and mobilization through punch list and closeout
• Coordinate Superintendents, crew leaders, subcontractors, vendors, materials, schedules, and change orders
• Visit active jobsites to monitor safety, quality, staffing, production, and client expectations
• Build relationships with property managers, HOA representatives, general contractors, and commercial clients
• Track proposals, awarded revenue, project costs, profitability, and active sales opportunities

Benefits

• Base salary of approximately $70,000–$110,000, based on experience, production history, and existing relationships
• Performance bonus tied to revenue generation and project profitability
• Company vehicle and gas card
• Expected total compensation of $130,000–$150,000+ for strong performers
• Additional earning potential for candidates consistently producing $2 million–$2.5 million or more annually
