Construction Senior Project Manager – Build Backwards, Lead Forwards with JTL!

Reports To: Director of Operations

Experience: Minimum 5-7 years in Construction Project Management

Job Type: Full time

JOB SUMMARY:

At JTL, Noitcurtsnoc (that’s "construction" spelled backwards), we don’t just do things differently—we redefine how commercial contracting gets done. We’re not your average builder; we’re innovators, trailblazers, and rule-benders. Our approach? Flip the script, question the norm, and deliver results that are anything but ordinary.

That’s why we’re looking for a Senior Construction Project Manager who isn’t afraid to turn tradition on its head and help us lead projects from start to finish—our way. If you’re ready to tackle complex challenges with grit, creativity, and a little audacity, you might be the perfect fit.

What Makes JTL Different?

At JTL, our name spells it out: we don’t just construct buildings—we take them apart, rethink every piece, and put them back together in ways no one else would dare. Our work is guided by three core values:

In The Ditch: Action, Self-Reliant, Can-do Attitude, Pure Effort

In The Know: Bring me solutions, don’t bring problems; Innovative, Hungry Learner, Growth Mindset

In The Driver's Seat: Pace, Accountability, Drive the Bus, Self-Starter, Driven, Forward Motion, Making Directions, Not Taking Directions

What You’ll Do (or maybe, how you’ll flip the script):

Own every aspect of complex commercial projects, from blueprint to ribbon-cutting.
Shake up the standard project management playbook, creating strategies that are bold and effective.
Build and lead dream teams that thrive in chaos and conquer the impossible.
Keep safety, quality, and budget on lock while you revolutionize the industry.
Build relationships with clients, partners, and stakeholders who want the best—and deliver better.
Problem-solve like a head football coach—always thinking four downs ahead.

Who You Are

An experienced project manager who’s ready to go from great to legendary.
A communicator who knows how to rally teams and wow clients.
A fast thinker who loves a challenge and never backs down.
A believer in effort, innovation, and accountability—and someone who knows how to live it, not just talk about it.
A tech-savvy builder who knows their way around the latest tools of the trade.

Qualifications:

A proven track record managing complex construction projects.
Leadership skills that inspire and energize teams.
A love for solving puzzles and thinking creatively.
Familiarity with all the usual certifications, degrees, and credentials that make you stand out (but also, tell us what makes you you).
