Project Manager

Tuttle Construction | Lima, Ohio

Build Great Projects. Lead Great Teams.

Tuttle Construction is looking for an experienced Project Manager who takes ownership, builds strong relationships, and knows how to bring people together to successfully deliver construction projects.

This is more than a position focused on schedules, subcontracts, and cost reports. Our Project Managers are leaders who represent Tuttle to our clients, design partners, subcontractors, and field teams. They are responsible for driving projects from preconstruction and buyout through construction and closeout while protecting the interests of both the client and the company.

We're looking for someone who is proactive, detail-oriented, solutions-focused, and comfortable making decisions. Most importantly, we're looking for someone who fits our culture and wants to be part of a team that takes pride in how we build and how we treat people.

Core Values

Solutions Based. Integrity. Confidence. Supportive.

The individual in this position must possess these values and be willing and able to coach these values.

As a Project Manager, you'll take ownership of the overall success of your projects, including:

• Lead projects from turnover and preconstruction through final closeout.
• Review project estimates, contracts, drawings, specifications, and other contract documents.

• Work closely with Estimating to successfully buy out projects and transition them into construction.
• Develop and maintain the overall project schedule, coordinating subcontractors, suppliers, materials, and internal resources.

• Manage subcontracts, purchase orders, RFIs, submittals, change orders, meeting documentation, and project records.
• Manage the financial performance of projects, including cost control, forecasting, invoicing, cash flow, and job-cost reporting.
• Identify issues early, develop solutions, and communicate clearly with the project team.
• Partner closely with the Project Superintendent to coordinate field activities, maintain quality, and keep projects on schedule.
• Work with our Safety Director and field leadership to maintain a safe work environment.
• Ensure work meets Tuttle's expectations for quality craftsmanship.
