Project Manager - Commercial Construction

About Ambercrest Construction LLC

Ambercrest Construction is a growing Dallas–Fort Worth commercial general contractor delivering high-impact public and institutional projects, including K-12 schools, airport facilities, and municipal infrastructure.

We are a lean, execution-focused team where Project Managers are given real ownership — not just oversight. You will be directly responsible for driving projects from preconstruction through closeout, working closely with leadership, clients, and trade partners.

If you’re looking for a role where your decisions matter, your performance is visible, and your growth is accelerated, Ambercrest offers a platform to build something meaningful.

Position Overview

We’re looking for a Project Manager with real experience delivering public sector construction projects in the DFW market — someone who knows how to run jobs, not just track them.

You will take ownership of active K-12 projects, taking full ownership of client relationships, subcontractors, budgets, and schedules from preconstruction through closeout.

At Ambercrest, this isn’t a “sit back and manage emails” role — you’ll have real responsibility, real visibility, and the opportunity to help shape a growing company

Duties

• Lead projects from preconstruction through closeout, with full ownership of execution
• Manage project budgets, schedules, RFIs, submittals, and change orders with a high level of accuracy and accountability
• Serve as the primary point of contact for owners, stakeholders, architects, and engineers
• Coordinate subcontractors across all trades, ensuring performance, accountability, and adherence to schedule
• Enforce strict safety, phasing, and access protocols for occupied campuses and active facilities
• Ensure full compliance with public contract requirements, including certified payroll, bonding, insurance, badging, and security protocols
• Develop and maintain CPM schedules; proactively identify risks and implement mitigation strategies
• Lead OAC meetings and provide clear, concise reporting to clients and company leadership
• Contribute to preconstruction efforts and support the pursuit of future public sector and aviation work

Qualifications

• 5–10 years of project management experience with a general contractor, with demonstrated success delivering construction projects
• Experience managing K-12, public sector, aviation, or other highly regulated renovation projects
• Proven ability to execute work in occupied or active facilities with strict phasing, safety, and access constraints
• Strong working knowledge of public contract compliance, including prevailing wage, certified payroll, and municipal requirements
• Proficiency in Procore, Microsoft Project, Primevera and Microsoft Office Suite
• Strong leadership and communication skills, with the ability to lead owner meetings and manage diverse project stakeholders
• Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent hands-on experience)

Compensation & Benefits

• Base salary: $100,000 – $125,000 depending on experience
• Performance bonus tied to project delivery, profitability, and company growth milestones
• Health, dental, and vision insurance
• Paid time off and company holidays
• Professional development support (PMP, certifications, and industry training)
• Direct access to company leadership with a clear path to Senior Project Manager as Ambercrest grows
