What We Look for in Project Manager Candidates

The right Project Manager must be able to balance multiple priorities while keeping people, schedules, budgets, and project objectives aligned.

  • Project planning and execution experience

  • Scheduling and milestone management

  • Budget management and cost control

  • Forecasting and project reporting

  • Subcontractor and vendor coordination

  • Client and stakeholder communication

  • Contract administration

  • Change order management

  • RFIs, submittals, and project documentation

  • Procurement and material coordination

  • Quality-control processes

  • Risk identification and problem solving

  • Coordination between office and field teams

  • Team leadership and communication skills

  • Experience managing multiple priorities and deadlines

  • Knowledge of relevant construction processes and project requirements

  • Experience with project management and construction software

 

When relevant to the employer’s requirements, our recruiters can also consider candidates with certifications, training, or experience with specific project management platforms and construction technologies.

 

Most importantly, we look for alignment between the candidate and your position—including the project experience, leadership style, technical knowledge, and communication skills your organization needs.
