Full Job Description

Job Summary

We’re looking for a motivated and detail-oriented Preconstruction Manager to help bridge the gap between project development and construction.

This role is responsible for taking residential and commercial projects from early concepts and drawings through estimating, bidding, planning, and final handoff to the construction team. The right candidate understands how residential projects come together in the field and can use that experience to identify challenges, control costs, and create a clear path to successful construction.

This is an opportunity for someone with a strong construction foundation who is ready to take ownership of the preconstruction process and grow with our company.

Responsibilities

Develop detailed project estimates and budgets from conceptual plans through final construction documents.
Solicit, review, level, and negotiate subcontractor and supplier bids.
Work with architects, engineers, owners, and project stakeholders to keep projects aligned with budget and construction requirements.
Identify value-engineering opportunities that reduce costs while maintaining design intent and project quality.
Perform constructability reviews to identify potential conflicts or costly field issues before construction begins.
Develop preliminary project schedules, sequencing plans, and long-lead-item tracking.
Participate in design and planning meetings and communicate the cost and schedule impact of design decisions.
Coordinate permitting and entitlement requirements as needed.
Assist with contract development, including project scope, inclusions, exclusions, GMP, and lump-sum agreements.
Maintain accurate preconstruction documentation throughout the planning process.
Prepare a complete and organized handoff to Project Managers and Superintendents once projects move into construction.
Build and maintain strong relationships with subcontractors, suppliers, design professionals, and clients.

What We're Looking For

3–5 years of construction experience, preferably within residential construction.
Experience in project management, estimating, preconstruction, field operations, or a combination of these areas.
Strong understanding of residential construction methods, sequencing, materials, and costs.
Ability to read and interpret plans, specifications, and construction documents.
Experience developing estimates and evaluating subcontractor bids.
Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
Ability to collaborate effectively with owners, architects, engineers, subcontractors, and field teams.
Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to identify potential project risks before they reach the field.
Comfortable using construction management, estimating, scheduling, and general business software.

What Makes Someone Successful in This Role

The ideal candidate isn't simply an estimator. We're looking for someone who understands how a project will actually be built.

You'll be successful if you can look at a set of plans and think beyond the numbers—identifying sequencing challenges, missing information, potential cost issues, subcontractor needs, and opportunities to make the project more efficient.

You'll balance technical construction knowledge with strong communication and relationship-building skills, helping ensure our projects enter construction with the right budget, schedule, scope, and team in place.

Why Join Us?

We're growing, and we're looking for someone who wants to grow with us.

This position offers the opportunity to have a meaningful impact on projects from the very beginning, work directly with company leadership and project teams, and help strengthen our preconstruction systems as we continue to expand.

If you're ready to take the next step in your construction career and want a role where your experience, ideas, and initiative can make a difference, we'd like to hear from you.

Pay: $80,000.00 - $110,000.00 per year

401(k)
