Project Manager for Luxury Custom Homes and Remodels

Hardwick General Contracting

Maitland, FL (Travel to Local Project Sites Required)

Hardwick General Contracting is seeking a Project Manager to manage the budgets, purchasing, schedules, documentation, subcontractor and vendor coordination, and client communication and follow-through while ensuring each project is completed on time and to company quality standards. This is a full-time, in-person position reporting directly to the Director of Operations.

This role is approximately 75% office work and 25% field work. It is NOT a Construction Manager or Field Superintendent position. The primary responsibility is detailed project scheduling, administration and financial coordination, working closely with our field construction team and customers. This position requires demonstrated experience managing residential construction budgets, purchasing, schedules, and project administration. The role is primarily office-based rather than focused on daily field supervision

We welcome residential purchasing agents, purchasing managers, project managers, and experienced project administrators or coordinators with strong technical knowledge of how a house is built (from sitework and foundation through final finishes and closeout). Candidates must understand residential plans, construction methods, trade scopes, and sequencing well enough to identify missing scope, recognize scheduling conflicts, and make informed purchasing and budgeting decisions. Experience independently managing residential budgets, purchasing, schedules, and project documentation is essential. Direct luxury custom home or high-end residential remodeling experience is required; commercial-only or administrative experience without this construction knowledge does not meet the requirements.

Hardwick General Contracting is a family-owned residential construction company serving Central Florida since 2004. Our core values are Uncompromised Quality, Communication, Transparency, and Innovation.

Key Responsibilities

• Maintain accurate project budgets, commitments, costs, and forecasts; track variances and potential overruns.
• Manage purchasing, bid requests, scope comparisons, purchase orders, and subcontract documentation; track material selections, approvals, lead times, and deliveries.
• Prepare, price, document, and track change orders through approval; update budgets, commitments, and schedules to reflect approved changes.
• Review, code, and approve invoices within assigned authority; verify charges against purchase orders, contracts, approved changes, and field-confirmed progress before routing for payment.
• Build and maintain project schedules with the field team; coordinate trade commitments, procurement deadlines, inspections, and punch list appointments.
• Maintain project records in our production software and the company accounting platform, including budgets, purchase orders, change orders, schedules, task lists, and supporting documents.
• Prepare meeting agendas, take detailed notes, record meetings as appropriate, and document decisions, action items, responsible parties, and due dates; distribute minutes and follow through on open items.
• Maintain current to-do lists and issue logs; proactively follow up on overdue tasks, missing information, selections, and approvals.
• Provide clear, timely communication and progress updates to homeowners, trade partners, suppliers, designers, and leadership.
• Conduct targeted site visits and walkthroughs to support coordination, verify information, document punch list items, and track completion with the field team.
• Coordinate final walkthroughs, punch list scheduling, warranties, closeout documents, and homeowner turnover records.

Required Qualifications

• Substantial hands-on residential construction experience, including direct experience with luxury custom homes or high-end residential remodels.
• Demonstrated ownership of residential purchasing, budgeting, scheduling, and project administration. Relevant purchasing, project management, or senior project coordination experience is required.
• Strong understanding of residential construction sequencing, plans, specifications, trade scopes, and material lead times.
• Ability and willingness to spend approximately 75% of the workweek performing detailed office and computer-based work.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office, including Excel, and construction project management and accounting software. ConstructionOnline and QuickBooks experience preferred.
• Excellent written communication, meeting documentation, organization, attention to detail, and consistent follow-through.
• Ability to manage multiple projects, identify discrepancies, prioritize competing deadlines, and keep digital records current.
• Valid driver's license with acceptable driving history and ability to travel to local project sites.

Compensation and Benefits

• Annual Salary: $75,000-$110,000 based on relevant experience and demonstrated ability to manage the responsibilities of this role.
• Performance-based bonus opportunities
• Health insurance contribution
• Supplemental life and disability insurance
• 401(k) with profit sharing
• Paid holidays and paid time off
• Career development and advancement opportunities

Work Schedule

• Full-time
• In-person; approximately 75% office / 25% local project site visits
