As a result, clients recognize and value the high standards that are upheld on every project, regardless of size or complexity.

    All Project Managers must have the ability to maintain positive relationships with clients, employees, and the public while presenting a professional image, demonstrating integrity, and upholding the culture and reputation of Cannatelli Builders, Inc.

    Project Managers play a critical leadership role in ensuring that construction projects are properly planned, budgeted, coordinated, and successfully executed.

Strong communication skills, industry experience, leadership ability, and sound decision-making are essential qualities for success in this role.

    Key Responsibilities and Essential Skills

    Preconstruction: Project Managers are expected to review all contract documents to gain a complete understanding of the project scope and identify any conflicts between plans, specifications, or field conditions. During this phase, they establish the scope of work for each trade, develop the project schedule, and coordinate preconstruction planning efforts.

    Contract Management & Procurement: Project Managers must understand the full contractual framework governing the project to ensure compliance with contract requirements. This includes coordinating with the main office on subcontractor selection, procurement processes, subcontractor buyout, and contract administration throughout the life of the project.

    Budgeting & Billing: Maintaining financial control of the project is one of the Project Manager’s most important responsibilities. This includes tracking costs, updating budgets regularly, reviewing commitments, forecasting final costs, and working with the main office to prepare and review monthly billing applications.

    Communication: Strong verbal and written communication skills are essential. Project Managers communicate daily with internal staff, owners, architects, engineers, subcontractors, vendors, and clients to ensure alignment, resolve issues, and keep the project progressing smoothly.

    Negotiation: Project Managers often negotiate with clients regarding additional time, funding, or scope adjustments. They also negotiate pricing, scope, and change order terms with subcontractors and suppliers to protect project profitability.

    Leadership: Effective leadership is necessary to direct teams, maintain accountability, and resolve conflicts among project participants. Project Managers must keep the team focused, motivated, and working toward common project goals.

    Organization: Project Managers must be highly organized, as they are responsible for managing schedules, documentation, materials procurement, meetings, manpower planning, and coordination of all moving parts of the project.

    Problem-Solving: Construction projects frequently present unexpected challenges. Project Managers must be able to think critically, adapt quickly, and develop practical solutions to keep the project on track.
