Assistant Project Manager
Location: Escondido
Date: January 2025
Reports to: Project Manager
FLSA Status: Non-Exempt

Are you someone who thrives under pressure, easily juggles shifting deadlines, and loves bringing structure to the chaos of construction planning? If you're a self-starter who takes initiative and values being part of a team that genuinely supports one another — we want to meet you.

We're a trusted finish carpentry subcontractor specializing in multi-family apartments and residential facilities, and we're looking for a Pre-Construction Project Manager to join our crew.

💼 What You'll Be Doing:

This isn't a sit-back-and-watch role. You'll be in the driver's seat during the pre-construction phase, helping our projects hit the ground running:

✅ Prepare accurate and detailed estimates
✅ Communicate directly with builders and architects to clarify scope and expectations
✅ Write and follow up on RFIs, maintaining organized notes on all communications
✅ Follow up on submitted proposals to keep momentum moving
✅ Create precise material lists and order materials for your assigned projects
✅ Coordinate delivery schedules with vendors and our Install Team to ensure on-time execution

🔍 Who You Are:

  • Experienced in construction project management or estimating, preferably in residential or multi-family work.

    • Highly organized and able to prioritize competing demands.

    • A clear and proactive communicator—both in writing and verbal interactions.

    • Proficient with project management tools, Excel, and estimating software.

    • Self-motivated, with a strong sense of ownership and accountability.

🤝 Why You'll Love Working With Us:

We're not just a company — we're a team. We support each other, show up for one another, and take pride in what we build together. If you're looking for a place where your work matters and your coworkers care, this is it.
