Job Description - Project Manager Custom Residential Construction

Project Manager – Custom Residential Construction (On-site in Carmel, CA) 



Are you a seasoned construction professional ready to take ownership of high-end residential builds and remodels? Do you thrive in a collaborative design-build environment where quality, communication, and creativity drive the work forward? We’re seeking a Project Manager to join a rapidly growing design studio focused on delivering exceptional new builds and luxury remodels throughout the Carmel area.



What You'll Be Doing:



  • Lead multiple residential construction projects (typically 2–5 at a time), overseeing every phase from pre-con through final walkthrough.

  • Serve as the on-site project liaison, communicating daily with trade partners, site crews, and internal design and construction teams.

  • Perform regular site visits to ensure team alignment, material readiness, and task accountability.

  • Submit and manage RFIs, review construction drawings, and ensure all field teams have accurate and up-to-date information.

  • Coordinate across departments to manage procurement, timelines, change orders, and documentation.

  • Handle administrative tasks such as timecards, POs, job costing, and client-facing updates (approx. 20% of time).

  • Collaborate with a team of residential and architectural designers, drafters, and a part-time architect for permitting and stamps.

  • Work within proprietary estimating spreadsheets and internal catalogs (training provided).



What We're Looking For:



  • 3+ years of experience in residential or commercial project management (high-end homebuilding a plus).

  • Strong understanding of construction assemblies, sequencing, and building codes.

  • Ability to read and scale plans; familiarity with CAD, Procore, Revit, or CoConstruct is a plus.

  • A natural leader who communicates well with diverse personalities and thrives under pressure.

  • Organized, proactive, and capable of juggling multiple active and developmental projects.

  • Familiarity with trade workflows, subcontractor coordination, and local permitting processes.

  • Bonus: Experience with bidding, estimating, PMP certification, OSHA compliance, and local trade relationships.



Ideal Backgrounds:



  • Associate’s or bachelor’s degree in construction management.

  • Hands-on field experience or generational exposure to the trades.

  • Comfortable managing multi-million-dollar remodels and ground-up builds ranging from $1.5M–$10M+.



What we offer:



  • Work with a tight-knit, innovative team that values collaboration, client experience, and creativity.

  • Exposure to stunning design-forward projects in one of California’s most beautiful coastal regions.

  • Growth path toward Project Leader and potential executive leadership roles.

  • Culture-first environment, core values are paramount in everything we do.

  • Competitive compensation package: $100K–$115K base (negotiable) + incentive plan ($10K–$20K) depending on experience (flexibility for the right candidate).

  • Stipend and benefit details available upon interview.
