    Paul Davis Restoration of SE New Jersey Shore

    Reports To: Owner

    Paul Davis Restoration of SE New Jersey Shore is a entrepreneur and veteran-led restoration and reconstruction company serving Atlantic and Cape May Counties. As we continue to scale operations, we are looking for a driven, construction-minded Construction Project Manager to join our leadership team.

    This is an opportunity to step into a growing operation, take ownership of projects, and help build something meaningful in your local community.

    The Opportunity

    The Restoration Project Manager will oversee residential and light commercial reconstruction projects following fire, water, and storm-related property damage. This role owns the full project lifecycle — scope validation, budgeting, scheduling, subcontractor coordination, client communication, and final delivery.

    This is a field-forward, results-driven position for someone who understands how homes are built and can confidently manage multiple moving parts at once.

    We are looking for someone who:

    Has strong knowledge of residential construction systems (framing, MEP coordination, finishes, sequencing)

    Understands how scheduling decisions impact profitability and margin

    Thinks ahead — thoughtfully anticipating the next five steps rather than reacting to the next issue

    Is comfortable operating across multiple digital platforms (project management tools, CRM systems, estimating software)

    Learns new systems quickly and adapts as processes evolve

    Is coachable and open to feedback

    Works effectively within a leadership structure

    Is self-motivated, accountable, and willing to roll up sleeves in a growth environment

    Experience with estimating software (Xactimate or similar) is a strong plus, but construction literacy and technology fluency are equally important.

    Why Join Paul Davis of SE NJ Shore?

    We are not a large corporate bureaucracy. We are building scalable systems locally and expect team members to help refine and improve them.

    You will:

    Have direct access to ownership and leadership

    Help shape operational processes as we grow

    Gain visibility into project financial performance

    Be measured and rewarded based on execution

    We value adaptability, coachability, and alignment with company standards. Leaders here are hands-on and expect team members to implement feedback quickly, operate within structure, and continuously improve.

    This opportunity is best suited for someone excited about building and scaling operations — not maintaining legacy systems.

    Core Responsibilities

    Manage project budgets and protect gross margin performance

    Confirm scope and work authorizations prior to project start

    Coordinate subcontractors and manage timelines proactively

    Anticipate downstream impacts of scheduling and scope decisions

    Maintain professional communication with homeowners and partners

    Track key performance metrics and adjust project plans accordingly

    Ensure compliance with building codes and safety standards

    Compensation & Structure

    Compensation is structured with a competitive base salary and strong performance-based upside. This role is designed for individuals motivated by ownership, accountability, and variable earning potential.

    Base + performance commission structure

    Expected earning potential: $65,000 – $100,000+ annually, depending on production and performance

    No cap on earning potential

    PTO and flexible scheduling

    Company-provided technology

    Direct mentorship and leadership access

    High performers who consistently manage margins, scheduling, and client experience effectively will see strong upside growth.

    Working Conditions:

    This position requires both indoor and outdoor fieldwork. The role includes standing, walking, climbing stairs, bending, and lifting up to 50 pounds. Personal protective equipment is required as appropriate.
