Project Manager – Commercial Painting, Waterproofing & Restoration

Pegasus Painting & Waterproofing | South Florida

We're Pegasus Painting & Waterproofing, a commercial subcontractor based in South Florida. We specialize in painting, waterproofing, and restoration on projects like multi-family communities, parking garages, HOA properties, amenity buildings, and occupied commercial structures. At any given time we have multiple active jobs running across the region, and we're looking for a Project Manager who can take full ownership of their projects and keep things moving.

We got here by doing what we say we're going to do. If that's how you work too, we'd love to talk.

THE ROLE

You'll be running your own projects from pre-construction through closeout, which includes building schedules, managing budgets, leading field operations, and being the direct point of contact with GCs, property managers, and building owners. This position reports to the VP of Sales and Project Management.

On a day-to-day basis, that looks like:

• Managing multiple commercial projects at the same time and keeping all of them on track
• Owning the job budget, including labor, materials, subs, and change orders
• Coordinating with GCs, owners, inspectors, and everyone else involved in the project
• Leading crews in the field, setting expectations, and keeping production on schedule
• Staying on top of submittals, RFIs, pay apps, daily reports, and project documentation
• Walking your job sites regularly to stay connected with what's actually happening
• Identifying issues early and making decisions to keep things from falling behind
• Keeping ownership informed with clear, honest updates on every project

WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• At least 3 to 5 years as a Project Manager in commercial subcontracting (not in a support or assistant role). Painting, waterproofing, coatings, or restoration background is ideal
• Experience managing multiple projects at once, each in the $250K range
• You understand how these jobs get built in the field, not just on paper. Scopes, specs, sequencing, crew coordination
• Budget and cost tracking experience. You've been responsible for the financial performance of your projects, not just the schedule
• Strong communication skills. You'll be representing Pegasus directly with GCs, owners, and property managers
• Comfortable using project management tools like Procore or similar. We also use our own internal platform (STACK) for estimating and project management, so being comfortable learning new systems is important
• Familiar with South Florida's commercial construction market, including the pace, weather, and permitting
• Bilingual English/Spanish is a strong plus
• Valid driver's license and reliable transportation
• OSHA 30 preferred

WHAT TO EXPECT

We believe in being transparent about how we work so you can decide if this is the right fit for you.

Our PMs have a lot of autonomy. We trust you to run your projects, manage your time, and communicate proactively without someone looking over your shoulder. That independence is something our team values, but it also means you need to be comfortable making decisions and staying ahead of things on your own.

South Florida's commercial construction market moves fast, and we usually have a lot going on at the same time. The right person for this role is someone who stays organized and composed when there's a lot on their plate.

When challenges come up on your projects, we expect you to take ownership of both the problem and the solution. That's how our team works best, and it's a big part of what makes this a rewarding place to be.

WHAT WE OFFER

• Salary commensurate with experience, paid weekly
• Performance bonuses
• Health insurance
• 401(k) retirement plan
• Paid holidays
• Paid vacation days
• Paid sick and personal days
• Mileage reimbursement
• Company laptop and phone
• Full-time, year-round position

We're a growing company and we want the right people growing with us. People who consistently deliver get recognized here, whether that's through performance bonuses, expanded responsibility, or leadership opportunities as the team grows.

HOW TO APPLY

Send your resume along with a short note telling us what kind of projects you've managed and why you're looking to make a move.

Early in the process we'll ask you three questions, so it's worth thinking about them now:

1. How many commercial projects have you managed at the same time, and what was the typical dollar value per job?

2. Have you been directly responsible for project budgets and profitability? Tell us about a specific example.

3. What kind of commercial work have you managed? Multi-family repaints, parking garage restoration, waterproofing, new construction coatings? The more specific, the better.

We move quickly with strong candidates. If this sounds like the right opportunity for you, don't wait.

Pegasus Painting & Waterproofing is an equal opportunity employer.
