Operations Manager

About Apex Multifamily Builders

Apex Multifamily Builders is a general contracting firm specializing in construction, renovations, and tenant finish-outs in both commercial and multifamily projects across Texas and Colorado. We deliver projects for developers, property management companies, and building owners. Our work includes commercial build-outs, apartment complex renovations, and industrial painting. We are growing and looking for a hands-on leader to take ownership of our project execution.

The Role

We are hiring an Operations Manager to own all project execution across the company. You will manage our Project Managers directly, ensure projects are delivered on time and on budget, and be the primary escalation point for field issues. This role reports directly to the Owner and is critical to our next phase of growth.

This is not a desk job. You will be in the field regularly, holding PMs accountable, solving problems before they become expensive, and driving a culture of execution and profitability.

Responsibilities

• Directly manage and develop Project Managers and superintendents conducting weekly job reviews and holding them accountable to schedules, budgets, and quality standards
• Own project profitability across all active jobs; review WIP reports weekly and address margin fade before it becomes a problem
• Serve as the escalation point for project issues including subcontractor disputes, schedule delays, owner concerns, and safety incidents
• Ensure proper project closeout on every job, including final documentation, punch list completion, retention collection, and margin analysis
• Conduct regular site visits to verify quality, safety compliance, and schedule adherence
• Coordinate with estimating on project handoffs and provide feedback on bid accuracy based on completed job performance
• Drive consistent use of company systems including Procore, QuickBooks, and standardized SOPs
• Participate in hiring decisions for project and field staff; identify training needs and performance issues early
  
  
  

Requirements

• Experience with Procore or similar project management software
• Ability to read and interpret construction drawings and specifications
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills

• Direct path to senior leadership as the company grows
  
  
  

Who You Are

You are not interested in managing from behind a desk. You have run projects yourself and know what good looks like. You hold people accountable without micromanaging. You can walk a job site and spot problems before the PM mentions them. You understand that margin is made in the field, not in the bid. You want to build something and grow with a company that rewards results.

Apex Multifamily Builders is an equal opportunity employer.
