  • Project Manager - Residential Construction

    Pathfinder Holding Company, LLC

    Superintendent job in Grand Rapids, MI

    Job Description THE MISSION At Pathfinder Holding, we don't just renovate houses; we revitalize neighborhoods. As a local franchisee of HomeVestors of America (acclaimed for " We Buy Ugly Houses "), we buy distressed properties and transform them into quality homes and premier vacation rentals. We are a " Whatever It Takes " team that moves fast, solves messy problems, and takes extreme ownership of our results. THE ROLE We are seeking a battle-tested Construction Project Manager to serve as the Commander-in-Chief for our residential renovation projects. You will be responsible for simultaneously managing a pipeline of 5-10 active rehabs across West Michigan. This is not a role for a clipboard carrier who waits for instructions. We need a resourceful leader who can build their own army of subcontractors, enforce strict quality standards, and drive projects from "Scope to Sold" without excuses. You are a strategic, data-driven leader who designs systems to anticipate delays, rigorously holds contractors accountable, and treats every dollar in the budget as if it were your own. Compensation: $70,000 - $90,000 yearly Responsibilities: WHAT YOU WILL DO Pipeline Command: Orchestrate 5-10 active renovation projects at once, ensuring materials, labor, and inspections align to hit completion dates. Contractor Sourcing & Performance Management: Systematically identify, screen, and onboard external subcontractors (plumbers, electricians, drywallers, etc.) and General Contractors. You don't just manage the crew; you build it. You will manage them using a clear, documented performance matrix which you will help develop. Boots-on-the-Ground QC: Conduct frequent onsite inspections to ensure work is performed to Pathfinder standards and complies with Michigan Residential Code. You are the first line of defense against shoddy workmanship. Systematic Budget & Schedule Discipline: Implement and manage processes to ensure rigorous management of project timelines and budgets. You are responsible for ensuring projects finish on time and on budget. Your success is measured by data-driven KPIs. Compliance & Safety: Ensure all necessary permits are pulled, inspections are passed, and worksites are maintained safely. Qualifications: WHO YOU ARE The Enforcer: You are comfortable having tough conversations. If a sub is late or cuts corners, you hold them accountable immediately. The Networker: You have (or can quickly build) a deep rolodex of reliable West Michigan tradespeople. You know who to call when a framer flakes. The Multi-Tasker: You can mentally toggle between a rough-in inspection at Property A and a finish-carpentry issue at Property B without dropping the ball. The Owner: You treat our capital like your own money. You hate waste and inefficiency. QUALIFICATIONS Experience: 3+ years of Construction Project Management experience, specifically in residential rehabs, flipping, or scattered-site development. Licensure: Michigan Residential Builder's License is preferred. If you do not have one, you must be willing to obtain it (we will support this growth). Tech-Savvy: Familiarity with construction management software (e.g., Buildertrend, CoConstruct) is preferred, but general tech proficiency (Excel, Smartphones, Tablets) is required. Mobility: Must have a valid Driver's License and reliable vehicle/truck for daily travel to job sites throughout West Michigan. About Company WHY JOIN PATHFINDER? Autonomy: We hire adults. You manage your schedule and your sites. As long as the projects are on time and on budget, how you get there is up to you. Impact: Drive through Grand Rapids and see the physical evidence of your hard work-blight turned into beauty. Growth: We are aggressive growers. As our portfolio expands, your opportunities for leadership and income expand with it. Benefits: Competitive pay, PTO, paid holidays, and insurance (Medical, Dental, Vision, & Life). READY TO OWN THE OUTCOME? If you are hungry to learn, love taking ownership, and want your work to matter, apply today. Please submit your resume and a brief note on why our culture of "Whatever It Takes" resonates with you.
