Senior Project Manager - Construction in Atlanta

Job Description

Senior Project Manager

We’re partnered with a well-respected commercial general contractor with deep roots in the Southeast construction market. They’re selective about the work they pursue — and it shows. Their reputation has been built on integrity, long-term relationships, and an ability to consistently deliver on projects others walk away from.

They’re looking to add a Senior Project Manager in Atlanta who’s ready to take the lead on some of their most visible and challenging projects.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Running your own work — from precon to closeout.
• Leading project teams with clarity and accountability. You’ll mentor assistant PMs and collaborate tightly with seasoned superintendents.
• Managing schedules, budgets, owner expectations, and subcontractors with a no-drama, results-first mindset.
• Communicating directly with clients, design teams, and leadership — you’re the face of the job.
• Making critical decisions in real-time and backing them up with experience and foresight.

What They're Looking For:

• 8+ years of commercial construction experience, including as lead PM on $10M–$50M+ projects.
• Hands-on background with vertical construction.
• Solid understanding of contract negotiation, buyout, risk management, and forecasting.
• Professional, direct communicator who earns trust with clients and trades.

What’s in It for You:

• A strong and stable general contractor that doesn’t overpromise — they pick projects wisely and deliver well.
• Local work in the Atlanta area — no travel.
• Leadership that gives you room to run and values your judgment.
• Competitive salary, truck allowance, bonus program, 401(k) match, and full benefits.
