What are the responsibilities and job description for the Project Manager position at Centurion Selection?
Project Manager | Building Envelope | Gaithersburg MD
A well established building envelope contractor is growing its leadership team and looking for a sharp Project Manager to drive preconstruction and field execution on complex exterior projects across the Mid Atlantic region.
This is a high ownership role where you will work closely with estimating, superintendents, and foremen to deliver from pursuit through closeout. If you thrive in a fast paced specialty trade environment and want to make a real impact, this one is worth a look.
What you will do:
- Own the full project lifecycle for building envelope scopes including curtain wall, cladding, waterproofing, and related assemblies from preconstruction through final completion
- Partner directly with estimators during preconstruction to validate scope, budget, and schedule assumptions before projects hit the field
- Coordinate daily with superintendents and foremen to align on production goals, material procurement, and subcontractor activity
- Manage submittals, RFIs, change orders, and owner communications with a high level of responsiveness and documentation discipline
- Monitor project financials, identify cost and schedule risks early, and drive corrective action in real time
- Contribute to a culture of accountability across field leadership including foreman and superintendent teams
What we are looking for:
- 5 or more years of project management experience in building envelope, specialty facade, or related exterior trades
- Demonstrated ability to manage preconstruction coordination including estimating support, design assist, and value engineering
- Proven track record working alongside field superintendents and foremen to hit production and quality targets
- Strong command of project financials including budget management, cost forecasting, and change order negotiation
- Excellent communicator who can hold their own in owner meetings and keep field teams aligned without micromanaging
- Local candidates or those with strong ties to the DC metro and Mid Atlantic market preferred
Also currently hiring for Senior Project Manager, Foreman, Superintendent, and Estimator roles within the same team, so please still apply if that's a closer match to your background and experience.
