  • Develop and maintain detailed project plans, including timelines, resource allocation, budgets, and risk mitigation strategies to ensure timely, high-quality delivery. 
  • Conduct regular job site visits and partner with superintendents to monitor progress, resolve field challenges, and strengthen relationships with subcontractors and GCs. 
  • Oversee all project financials, including budgeting, revenue forecasting, labor buyouts, billing, pay applications, and subcontractor invoice approvals to meet profitability goals. 
  • Complete monthly WIP reconciliations by reviewing costs to date against budget and forecasting costs for upcoming months. 
  • Manage the full document workflow including submittals, RFIs, ASIs, CCDs, change orders, and pick tickets, ensuring accuracy, compliance, and timely processing. 
  • Interpret construction drawings and specifications to guide field execution, resolve discrepancies, and keep work aligned with project goals. 
  • Collaborate closely with superintendents, project coordinators, sales, and fellow project managers, as well as vendors and manufacturers on quality control, timelines, and training. 
  • Maintain proactive and transparent communication with clients and general contractors, managing expectations and fostering a positive customer experience. 
  • Oversee and support project team members by onboarding, mentoring, setting clear expectations, and providing ongoing guidance and feedback. 
  • Champion a culture of safety, teamwork, and accountability while upholding Elements’ policies and project standards.
