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.
