Construction Project Manager

Eagle Construction LLC
San Diego, CA Contractor
POSTED ON 12/29/2025
AVAILABLE BEFORE 4/27/2026

About Us:

Eagle Construction & Engineering is a licensed general contractor and civil engineering firm based in San Diego. We specialize in custom residential construction (ADUs, remodels, renovations), civil site development (grading, hydrology, drainage), and permit-ready design-build services.

We are expanding and seeking an independent-minded Project Manager to work with us in a commission-based partnership model — where your earnings grow directly with the value of the projects you manage.

Position Overview:

This is an entrepreneurial role — ideal for a self-driven, experienced Project Manager who wants more freedom, flexibility, and financial upside than traditional salaried positions.

You will manage multiple construction and engineering jobs (residential & light commercial), coordinate with city officials, subs, clients, and engineers, and take ownership from pre-construction to closeout.

Responsibilities:

  • Manage residential and small commercial construction projects from A to Z
  • Coordinate engineering (grading/hydrology) and architectural plans for permitting
  • Conduct client site visits and inspections as needed
  • Coordinate and schedule subs, inspections, and materials
  • Ensure projects are on-time and within budget
  • Assist with estimates, contracts, and change orders
  • Provide regular updates to clients and internal team
  • Collaborate with the business owner as a partner—not just an employee

Requirements:

  • Experience working independently as a Project Manager
  • Valid HIS Registration Number (Home Improvement Salesperson)
  • Familiar with CSLB rules, residential codes, city permitting, and inspection processes
  • Excellent communication, time management, and organizational skills
  • Ability to manage 3–5 jobs at once
  • PMP certification is a plus
  • Knowledge of San Diego markets, trades, and city permit processes preferred
  • Spanish fluency is a bonus

Compensation Structure:

  • Commission-Based / Revenue Share ModelYou earn a competitive percentage of each job you manage, not a flat hourly wage.Average earnings range between $90,000 – $180,000 annually, depending on project volume.
  • Flexible hours and independence
  • No cap on earnings — the more you manage, the more you earn
  • Access to backend admin support, licensed GC, engineering team, and city relationships
  • Potential for equity or leadership opportunities based on performance

Location:

  • San Diego County
  • Remote admin work allowed, but local site visits required as needed

How to Apply:

Please submit your resume along with:

  • Your HIS registration number
  • A brief description of your recent projects (residential or civil)
  • A sentence or two about why you’re looking for a commission-based partnership model
