We’re seeking an experienced Project Manager to take the lead on a high-profile, 16-month, $12M school construction project in Sacramento. This is a boots-on-the-ground, high-impact opportunity for a confident project leader who thrives in the field and knows how to build strong relationships with stakeholders, subcontractors, and community partners.

This is a full-time, permanent role for a local project with no travel required outside the greater Sacramento region. You’ll be managing the full scope from kickoff through final delivery — with plenty of visibility, autonomy, and support from a collaborative leadership team.

• Manage subcontractors, vendor relationships, and jobsite execution
• Serve as primary point of contact with district and school officials
• Drive schedules, budgets, and compliance from the field
• Ensure DSA permitting and inspection processes are successfully managed
• Collaborate with internal superintendents and field leaders

What You Bring

• 5+ years as a Construction Project Manager in the K-12, public, or municipal space
• Proven experience with DSA permitting and stakeholder management
• Deep understanding of project sequencing, site logistics, and public-sector communication
• Familiarity with MEP coordination and renovation/remodel scopes
• Excellent communication, organization, and problem-solving skills
• Local to Sacramento or surrounding areas with trade relationships preferred
• Proficiency in project management platforms such as Procore, MS Project, and Excel

Compensation & Perks

• Base salary range: $120,000 – $160,000 DOE
• $1,200/month vehicle allowance + gas card + Home Depot card
• Performance-based bonus potential
• 401(k) with 4% match, vested immediately
• Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage
• Company-issued laptop, iPad, and phone or phone allowance
• Opportunity for long-term growth in an expanding regional division
