Project Manager - Healthcare Construction

AlphaHire•Nashville, TN

2d•Onsite

About The Position

We are hiring a Project Manager to lead healthcare and commercial construction projects from preconstruction through final closeout. We are specifically looking for a commercial construction professional who has managed healthcare renovations, medical facilities, or projects performed inside occupied clinical environments. This person must understand the additional planning, communication, infection-control requirements, and phasing involved when construction takes place around active patients, staff, and ongoing facility operations. The Project Manager will own project execution, financial performance, subcontractor coordination, schedule management, and client communication across multiple active projects. This is not a Project Engineer or support-level position. The person hired must be able to independently manage projects, anticipate risks, and maintain accountability for cost, schedule, quality, and client satisfaction. This role is best suited for a hands-on Project Manager who understands healthcare construction, can operate effectively inside occupied facilities, and is prepared to take full ownership of project performance from planning through closeout.

Ability to independently manage multiple projects and communicate professionally with clients and project stakeholders
