Job Description

Capital Projects Manager

Location: Chicago, IL (Hybrid: Mon–Thurs in office, Fridays remote)

About the Role

We are a high-growth rollup in the pet industry, rapidly expanding our footprint through acquisitions and rebranding of existing locations. We're seeking a Capital Projects Manager to own and execute CapEx projects across our growing portfolio. This is a highly autonomous, execution-focused role for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, process-light environment and enjoys building structure as they go. You'll manage approximately 10 CapEx projects per quarter, supporting both newly acquired and existing locations. Projects are focused on rebranding and light remodels—such as signage, paint, and minor layout changes—rather than large-scale construction.

This role is ideal for a strong project manager who can juggle multiple initiatives, manage vendors and contracts, and build scalable processes as the company grows.

What You'll Do

  • Lead and execute capital rebrand projects across a multi-site portfolio
  • Manage timelines, budgets, vendors, and contracts from kickoff through completion
  • Oversee rebranding initiatives for newly acquired and existing locations
  • Track project spend and progress using Excel-based tools and dashboards
  • Partner with Operations and Marketing (capex strategy is set, you execute)
  • Build and refine facilities and project management processes as the function scales
  • Operate independently while keeping stakeholders informed and aligned

What We're Looking For

  • Bachelor's degree (field flexible)
  • Proven experience managing multi-site projects in a fast-moving environment
  • Strong project management and organizational skills
  • High proficiency in Excel
  • Experience negotiating contracts and managing external vendors
  • Comfortable working with minimal structure and building processes from scratch
  • Professional, organized, and proactive with a strong sense of ownership
  • Pet industry experience is a plus, but not required

Why Join?

  • Be an early builder in a rapidly scaling company
  • Manager-level role with real ownership and autonomy
  • Own your function and make a visible impact
  • Work closely with leadership in a high-trust environment
  • Competitive compensation with meaningful bonus and equity upside
  • Hybrid schedule with in-office collaboration and Friday flexibility

If you're a strong project manager who loves execution, thrives in growth environments, and wants to build something meaningful from the ground up, we'd love to talk.

Confidential inquiries welcome.
