    Are you an experienced Assistant Project Manager who is ready to take on more responsibility and grow into a Project Manager role?

    Uprite Construction is looking for a motivated Assistant Project Manager with experience in ground up commercial construction and tenant improvement (TI) projects. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who has built a solid foundation in construction project management and is ready to take the next step in their career.

    We're specifically looking for someone who has the experience, drive, and potential to transition into a full Project Manager role within the next 6 to 12 months.

    You'll work closely with experienced Project Managers and leadership, gain greater ownership of projects, and have the opportunity to develop the skills needed to independently manage projects from start to finish.

    What You'll Do

    • Support the management of ground up commercial construction and tenant improvement projects from preconstruction through closeout.

    • Work closely with Project Managers and Superintendents to keep projects on schedule, within budget, and moving forward.

    • Assist with project budgets, cost tracking, forecasting, and financial reporting.

    • Coordinate subcontractors, vendors, architects, engineers, and project stakeholders.

    • Manage RFIs, submittals, change orders, purchase orders, and project documentation.

    • Assist with subcontractor buyout, contract administration, and procurement.

    • Participate in project meetings and communicate regularly with clients and internal teams.

    • Monitor construction schedules, identify potential challenges, and help resolve issues before they impact project delivery.

    • Take increasing ownership of project responsibilities while preparing to independently manage projects.

    What We're Looking For

    • 3 to 5 years of experience in commercial construction, ideally as an Assistant Project Manager or Project Engineer with increasing project management responsibilities.

    • Experience with both ground up commercial construction and tenant improvement projects.

    • Solid understanding of construction methods, scheduling, budgeting, and project coordination.

    • Experience working with subcontractors, vendors, and field teams.

    • Familiarity with construction management software such as Procore, Bluebeam, Microsoft Project, or similar platforms.

    • Strong communication, organizational, and problem solving skills.

    • Ability to manage multiple priorities and take ownership of responsibilities.

    • Someone who is proactive, motivated, and genuinely interested in growing into a Project Manager position.

    • A degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or a related field is preferred, but equivalent construction experience will also be considered.
