PAB Contractors is hiring a hands-on, experienced Project Manager to oversee a mix of water damage restoration and residential renovation construction projects including basement rebuilds, bathrooms, and kitchens. This is not an office-only role - we're looking for someone who's worked in the field, understands the fast-paced world of restoration, and can also manage high-quality residential renovations from start to finish.

If you have experience in residential restoration, Xactimate estimating, and project execution from demo to final touches, we want to hear from you.

This role requires excellent communication skills, as you'll collaborate with various people, such as construction workers, clients, architects/engineers, and our subcontractors. In order to succeed, it's important to know how to implement code requirements, quality workmanship, health, and safety standards on site.

If you are organized, able to work well under pressure and have experience in this field, we'd love to have you on our team!
