What are the responsibilities and job description for the Project Manager position at Partnership Employment?
Project Manager (Construction Coordination / Project Execution)
Shrewsbury, MA (50% office / 50% field, local travel)
Base Salary: $65K–$70
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
This is a great opportunity for someone looking to break into the construction and project execution space without needing to come directly from construction.
The company is a well-established local organization with a strong reputation and a steady pipeline of work. They’re looking for someone who naturally brings structure, urgency, and organization to fast-moving projects and wants to grow into a role with more ownership and exposure to how projects actually get built and delivered.
If you’ve coordinated large events, managed projects with a lot of moving pieces, worked with vendors, handled timelines, or been the person everyone depends on to keep things moving, this could translate really well.
What This Role Is
This role sits at the center of project execution. You’ll take projects from handoff through completion and make sure communication, scheduling, materials, teams, and timelines stay aligned.
Success is less about deep technical expertise and more about being organized, proactive, and able to move projects forward when information is incomplete or changing.
What You’ll Be Doing
• Take projects from sales and organize them into actionable execution plans
• Coordinate schedules, vendors, subcontractors, and internal teams
• Review project details and identify missing information before it becomes a problem
• Build project packages and support implementation
• Communicate with clients to keep projects moving and expectations aligned
• Support quoting and project documentation where needed
• Keep multiple active projects organized simultaneously
• Step into drawings or layouts when needed (AutoCAD experience is a plus)
Who Tends To Do Well
• Event coordinators who have managed large-scale events or logistics
• Project coordinators or operations professionals
• Construction administration or field support backgrounds
• Facilities, manufacturing, service, or technical coordination experience
• People who naturally organize people, schedules, and moving parts
What They’re Looking For
• Strong organization and follow-through
• Ability to make decisions and solve problems in real time
• Comfortable managing competing priorities
• High urgency without sacrificing detail
• Team-first mentality
• Interest in learning construction/project execution environments
• AutoCAD exposure is helpful but not required
Compensation Base salary: $65K–$70K depending on experience
