Project Manager

About The Role

You’re the kind of Project Manager who genuinely enjoys being the steady, organized force behind a successful residential build. You thrive when there’s a clear process to follow, a plan to improve, and a team counting on you to keep everything moving forward. Others describe you as friendly, sharp, dependable, and great with clients. You’re confident leading conversations, setting expectations, and keeping communication calm and consistent, even when timelines shift or permitting gets messy. You appreciate a work environment that values craftsmanship, clear expectations, strong systems, and a team that takes pride in doing things the right way.

You’re a detail-driven, people-focused communicator who brings both structure and energy to every project. You’re upbeat, responsive, and naturally organized, with a strong instinct for process, accuracy, and follow-through. You enjoy keeping moving parts aligned without creating unnecessary friction, and you balance confident decision-making with collaboration and respect for the team around you. You’re motivated by results, progress, and the satisfaction of seeing a project through from start to finish. You take pride in building something tangible, delivering a great owner experience, and turning well-built plans into completed homes.

What You’ll Do

As Project Manager you’ll own the customer journey and project lifecycle. Key responsibilities include:

• Lead residential construction projects from design through closeout
• Drive the design phase by running design review meetings and coordinating draftsmen and selections
• Provide at least two budget updates before permit submission
• Manage permits end-to-end: paperwork, RFC tracking, plan revisions, and ongoing client updates
• Finalize contracts by completing a 95% budget revision and reviewing scope/sub pricing with ownership
• Execute construction agreements prior to breaking ground
• Collect 25% deposits and ensure projects are properly set up in Buildertrend
• Build schedules alongside the Superintendent and confirm accurate cost code + PO setup
• Coordinate subcontractors and procurement: subcontracts, insurance verification, and long-lead ordering
• Monitor construction progress against baseline schedules and adjust proactively
• Maintain Buildertrend documentation including photos, change orders, permit documents, and project updates
• Complete monthly Budget Maintenance Sheets (BMS)
• Prepare and submit owner invoices in AIA format and coordinate with the Bookkeeper for processing
• Lead closeout: punchlists, warranties, CO/Certificate of Completion documentation, and owner handoff
• Proactively identify risk, solve problems early, and maintain consistent, empathetic client communication

About Us

Cask Construction is a Saint Petersburg-based residential construction company built on craftsmanship, clear communication, and a best-in-class owner experience. We’re growing fast, and we’re intentional about how we grow, with strong systems, high standards, and a team that takes pride in doing things the right way.

Our culture is built for high performers who want ownership, balance, and a team they actually enjoy working with. If you’re currently at a larger company where you’re stretched thin, constantly chasing fires, and missing time with family, this role will feel different. You’ll work locally, lead meaningful projects from start to finish, and be part of a tight-knit team where your work is seen, valued, and directly impacts the success of the company.

We value people who are self-motivated, organized, and collaborative, and who consistently deliver on commitments. You’ll be expected to exceed customer expectations through strong follow-through, maintain accurate budgets and schedules, build realistic plans and adjust proactively, and keep projects moving with drive and persistence. You’ll also be someone who involves others, leverages the team’s expertise, and stays calm, empathetic, and professional with clients, especially during stressful moments.

This is a role for a Project Manager who wants to do great work, build something they’re proud of, and still have a life outside of construction.
