Assistant Project Manager - Commercial Construction - Manhattan
New Yesterday
Your new company
This firm has been operating in NYC for the past 110 years! They are a well-respected firm that has a ton of work right now. They focus on commercial and institutional clients/projects (think high-end office space or healthcare office projects). The firm has a typical structure when it comes to reporting, i.e. APM, PM, SPM, PX. The office is based in Midtown Manhattan and you would be based there day-to-day. You are also able to go visit your sites as needed, but won't need to be there every single day. Most projects are in the 5 boroughs, so public transit is enough to get the job done. No car needed. The PX and PM that you will be working with have been with the business for 8 and 16 years, respectively, so you KNOW you are learning from the best. They are both looking for a talented APM to join the team for the long term. Apparently, with the number of jobs they have plus the number of jobs that could land, they are going to need you!
Your new role
As an APM with this group, you would handle typical APM duties, such as submittals, working with insurances, assisting PM with tasks, shadowing them to learn how to be a full PM yourself, etc.! This is definitely a growth role and the company is looking for long-term teammates. The role is mostly office-based with some visits to site, if you need. This role is for someone who has a good education in construction, a few years in the industry, and who wants to join a serious company to fast-track your career.
What you'll need to succeed
- 3-5+ years' experience with a general contractor.
- NYC construction industry experience.
- Ability to read drawings.
- Familiarity with submittals through Procore.
- Commercial construction experience would be preferred but not 100% mandatory.
What you'll get in return
- Boost your career development with a firm that knows what it is doing (over 100 years, remember!)
- Work closely with a Project Manager (and Project Executive) who has been with the business and in the industry for a long time.
- Playfully serious culture. They are not here to mess around, but they are here to have a fun time building great projects.
- Solid benefits, competitive for this market, for sure.
- Solid pipeline of work to keep you and the company busy.
