PROJECT MANAGER – TENANT IMPROVEMENTS
Downtown Vancouver
T.I projects including new construction
An established and growing construction organization is looking to add an experienced Project Manager to its Tenant Improvements team.
This is an opportunity for a construction professional who enjoys having genuine ownership of their projects - from pre-construction and tendering through to completion and client handover.
You’ll be responsible for driving projects forward while maintaining control of scope, schedule, budget, quality, safety and client relationships. You’ll work closely with clients, consultants, trades, suppliers and internal teams, acting as the key point of coordination throughout the project lifecycle.
What you will be doing:
- Lead the day-to-day management of tenant improvement and commercial construction projects from pre-construction through close-out
- Develop and manage project scopes, budgets, schedules and forecasts
- Review drawings, specifications, contracts, permits and project documentation to identify scope, cost and coordination requirements
- Tender, negotiate and manage subcontractor and supplier agreements
- Build and maintain strong relationships with clients, consultants, trades and suppliers
- Manage RFIs, submittals, shop drawings, change orders, site instructions and project documentation
- Monitor project costs, progress claims, forecasts, schedule and overall financial performance
- Identify potential delays, cost impacts and project risks and drive timely resolution
- Coordinate trades and suppliers to maintain project momentum and delivery
- Lead project close-out, deficiencies, occupancy requirements, warranties and turnover
- Maintain a strong focus on safety, quality, client satisfaction and successful project delivery
What you bring:
- Progressive construction project management experience
- Background in tenant improvements, commercial construction or a similar environment
- Demonstrated ability to manage projects through the full lifecycle
- Strong understanding of construction drawings, specifications, contracts, permits, RFIs, submittals and change management
- Experience managing budgets, cost reports, forecasts, progress claims and financial projections
- Strong leadership, communication, negotiation and relationship-management skills
- Highly organized with the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
- Proficiency with Procore, Microsoft Project or similar scheduling/project management platforms
- Solid understanding of WorkSafeBC requirements and construction safety practices
The opportunity
This is a great fit for a hands-on Project Manager who takes pride in delivering well-run projects and building long-term relationships with clients and construction partners. Projects range from senior living, hotels, community centres, schools and offices across the Lower Mainland.
The organization offers a collaborative environment and an opportunity to get involved in their new construction division.
