An award-winning Helena area commercial general contractor is looking to add a Project Manager to their team. 

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys being involved in the full life cycle of a project, working closely with field leadership, clients, architects, subcontractors, and internal teams to keep projects moving from preconstruction through closeout.

The right person will be organized, decisive, relationship-driven, and comfortable taking ownership of schedule, cost, communication, and overall project execution.

What You’ll Be Responsible For

  • Managing commercial construction projects from preconstruction through turnover
  • Developing and maintaining project budgets, forecasts, and cost reports
  • Managing subcontractor buyout, contracts, change orders, and pay applications
  • Coordinating closely with Superintendents to maintain schedules and field productivity
  • Leading owner, architect, and subcontractor meetings
  • Managing RFIs, submittals, procurement, and project documentation
  • Monitoring project risk and resolving issues before they impact cost or schedule
  • Maintaining strong relationships with owners, design teams, subcontractors, and vendors
  • Supporting project closeout, punch list completion, and final turnover
  • Providing leadership and mentorship to Project Engineers and Assistant Project Managers

What We’re Looking For

  • Commercial construction Project Management experience

  • Ability to manage multiple priorities and make sound project decisions
  • Strong communication, negotiation, and client-facing skills
  • Experience managing ground-up and/or large-scale commercial projects
  • Degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or a related field preferred

Why This Opportunity?

This is a role where the Project Manager will have real ownership of their work and a voice in how projects are executed.

You’ll be joining a contractor with a solid project pipeline, strong local relationships, and an environment where Project Managers are trusted to lead rather than simply push paperwork.

The company offers competitive compensation, comprehensive benefits, long-term advancement opportunities, and relocation assistance for the right candidate.
