Project Manager II, Construction Management. Pasadena Unified School District.
About The Position
This is an on-site project manager role based at the District's Facilities office in Altadena, embedded with the District team and reporting to Facilities Administration. You manage assigned projects from pre-construction through closeout. The current work is a mix of occupied-campus modernizations delivered as lease-leaseback (two elementary school modernizations, a gym and pool modernization with athletic-facility work, and a restroom, campus-utilities, and athletic-field package) plus a design-build elementary rebuild with swing space. You coordinate architects, engineers, inspectors, contractors, and school-site staff, and you keep the work moving on occupied campuses without disrupting instruction. Day to day you own scope, schedule, budget, and quality. You review change orders, estimates, and time impact analyses, keep the work compliant with DSA requirements and District standards, and produce the documentation and reporting the District relies on. This is hands-on, owner-side construction management on public school projects.
