Compensation: $90,000 -- $110.00 (Based on Experience)
Build Relationships. Build Excellence. Build Something That Lasts.
At J&S Construction, we believe successful projects begin with strong relationships, clear communication, and experienced leadership.

We are seeking an experienced Construction Project Manager II who can confidently manage commercial construction projects from preconstruction through closeout while maintaining the highest standards of safety, quality, schedule performance, and financial accountability.
This position is designed for a proven project manager who has successfully led commercial construction projects and is ready to take on larger, more complex projects with greater responsibility and ownership.

This position is based in our Cookeville office and requires regular jobsite visits.
