Assistant Project Manager | GCM Contracting Solutions, Inc. | Fort Myers, FL

At GCM Contracting Solutions, we’re not just building structures — we’re building legacies. From tilt-wall warehouses and automated marinas to complex design-build developments, our projects shape skylines and communities across Florida and beyond.

We’re seeking a Project Management Assistant who thrives in a fast-paced construction environment and is fluent in digital project coordination through Procore. This role is perfect for someone who values organization, precision, and collaboration — ensuring every project milestone is executed efficiently and accurately.

What We Offer

  • Competitive annual salary commensurate with experience ($90,000 – $120,000)
  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance
  • 401(k) with employer match
  • Paid vacation and holidays
  • Professional development and advancement within our design-build structure
  • Collaborative, family-oriented culture built on integrity, innovation, and teamwork

About the Company

Since 1988, GCM Contracting Solutions has been a leader in design-build construction — combining in-house engineering, concrete, and construction management to deliver turnkey excellence.

Headquartered in Fort Myers, Florida, GCM is known for innovation in tilt-wall design, marine construction, and automated storage technology through its ASAR (Automated Storage and Retrieval) division — the engineering force behind the world’s first fully automated dry-stack marina.

Our success is built on collaboration, craftsmanship, and accountability — and we’re proud of the people who make it possible.

About the Role

As a Project Management Assistant, you’ll play a pivotal role in supporting projects that define the future of construction and automation — including work on the world’s second fully automated marina powered by ASAR technology.

You’ll support Project Managers and Superintendents by maintaining project organization, documentation, and communication through Procore, ensuring efficiency from preconstruction through closeout. This role requires a balance of technical precision, administrative excellence, and proactive communication to keep complex, high-profile projects running seamlessly.

It is GCM’s intent to mature this position into a Project Manager role over time, depending on the individual’s capacity, performance, and professional development. We’re looking for someone who not only supports great projects but grows into leading them.

The Person

You’re a communicator, problem-solver, and detail-oriented multitasker who loves keeping projects organized and on schedule. You’re tech-savvy, comfortable in Procore, and take pride in ensuring that the right information is in the right hands at the right time.

You’ll thrive at GCM if you love a great company culture that values its team members, promotes organization, and rewards those who excel at multitasking and collaboration to get things done right the first time.
