Construction Manager

Overview
The Construction Project Manager owns renovation execution across our DFW multifamily portfolio. Primary focus is interior unit renovations — classic and full value-add turns. Secondary focus is exterior CapEx coordination — roofing, paint, parking lot, amenities, building envelope.

You will not inherit a vendor list. You build your own. We expect you to walk in with established relationships across the DFW trades — plumbers, electricians, HVAC techs, drywall, paint, flooring, cabinet, countertop, finish carpenters — and the ability to assemble and manage in-house crews and 1099 subcontractors from day one.

Duties

Interior Unit Renovations

• Execute classic and full value-add renovation programs across the portfolio per acquisition business plans
• Manage scope, schedule, and budget for every unit in the pipeline
• Hit per-unit cost targets and turn-time targets tied to lease-up and rent premium assumptions
• Coordinate with Property Management on unit release, resident impact, and lease-up handoff
• Quality control every unit — punch, inspect, sign off

Crew & Subcontractor Management

• Source, vet, and onboard 1099 subcontractors and trade vendors across DFW
• Build and manage in-house renovation crews where the math supports it
• Negotiate pricing — unit-based, line-item, T&M where appropriate
• Enforce COI compliance, W-9s, lien waivers, and 1099 documentation
• Manage performance: production rates, quality, safety, schedule adherence

Project Management Software & Communication

• Maintain every active project in our project management software with daily updates — schedules, progress, constraints, change orders, photos, punch lists
• Provide daily progress updates on what moved, what's blocked, and what's needed
• Run weekly project review meetings with ownership and Property Management
• Surface constraints early so they can be solved before they become problems
• Document everything

Logistics, Supply Management & Job Costing

• Source materials and supplies across the portfolio — leverage volume, lock pricing, manage delivery windows
• Build and maintain preferred vendor lists for materials, fixtures, finishes, and appliances
• Track job costs in real time at the unit, property, and portfolio level
• Manage lead times, staging, and delivery so crews never wait on materials

Experience

• 10+ years of construction experience, with prior roles as a Superintendent, Lead Foreman, or Project Manager
• 5+ years in multifamily preferred — value-add renovation experience strongly weighted
• Track record completing 100+ unit turns annually
• Direct experience hiring and managing 1099 subcontractors and in-house crews
• Demonstrated ability to hit per-unit cost targets ($8K–$25K range depending on scope)
• Experience with occupied renovations and resident communication
• Fluency across the trades: plumbing, electrical, HVAC, drywall, paint, flooring, cabinets, countertops, tile, finish carpentry
• Scope writing, bid leveling, and vendor negotiation
• Schedule management — can build and hold a 30/60/90 unit turn schedule
• Job costing at the line-item level
• Project management software fluency (Procore, BuilderTrend, or equivalent)
• Property management software experience (AppFolio preferred)
