The Role
The Project Manager will maintain a comprehensive understanding of building enclosure assessment and delivery requirements, including forensic investigations, documentation, and building commissioning. The role involves preparing asset management and building envelope reports aligned with client standards, coordinating with internal teams and external consultants, and supporting senior leadership initiatives.

- Support the development of proposals, contracts, and technical scopes of work
What the Firm Is Looking For
- Five or more years of experience drafting construction documents for an architectural, engineering, or building envelope consulting firm, or equivalent experience overseeing building envelope installation

- Strong communication skills with consultants, field personnel, and client executives
- A client-service mindset with demonstrated relationship management skills
- Familiarity with RFP/RFQ processes and construction contract language
- Excellent written and verbal communication abilities
- Experience managing building envelope documentation across all project phases
- Willingness to travel within the regional market
- Physical ability to work on active construction sites, including climbing ladders, working at heights over 10 feet, and lifting materials exceeding 30 pounds
