About The Position

This role is for a Reconstruction Project Manager within a dominant restoration operation in Eastern PA, a $50M+ business with 150 employees across multiple offices. The company has a clear growth trajectory and is seeking someone to manage reconstruction projects within a one-hour radius of Westchester, covering the Philly suburbs. The company is locally owned and operated by a leadership team with deep market knowledge. The COO conducts interviews, makes hiring decisions within two weeks, and allows autonomy once performance is demonstrated. The Reconstruction Project Manager reports to a Reconstruction Director and is supported by a coordinator team that handles administrative and scheduling tasks, allowing the PM to focus on project execution. The average PM manages over 20 active jobs and generates more than $130k in total compensation, with top performers managing 25+ jobs and $3M in revenue. The role involves managing insurance claim losses due to water, fire, smoke, or storm damage, from the initial work order through job closeout. The PM is responsible for customer communication, scope definition, budget management, subcontractor oversight, scheduling, and accounts receivable support. While construction knowledge is important, the role emphasizes software proficiency, organization, and job completion. The COO notes that construction is the prerequisite, but the core of the job lies in software, organization, and follow-through.
