First Onsite is hiring an experienced Construction Manager to take the lead on restoration and construction projects from the ground up in Kitchener. In this role, you'll oversee the entire construction lifecycle-managing schedules, budgets, subcontractors, and on-site activity to ensure projects are delivered safely, on time, and on spec.

You'll be the key point of contact for clients, field teams, suppliers, and inspectors - keeping communication clear and projects moving forward. From reviewing budgets and scopes to ensuring compliance with design and code requirements, you'll bring structure, leadership and even FUN, yes FUN, to every phase of the job.

A DAY IN THE LIFE AS A CONSTRUCTION MANAGER

As a Construction Manager, you supervise the total onsite construction efforts to ensure that each project is constructed in accordance with design, code, quality, budget, and schedule requirements. At the beginning of a project, you review the preliminary project budget, identify missing or inaccurate scope items, set up the budget, and ensure project costs are accurately accounted for.

Your great organizational skills allow you to manage or supervise multiple projects at one time. As the primary contact for client representatives, field personnel, material suppliers, inspectors, and subcontractors, you are the driving force behind producing desired project results. You are determined to make sure that building projects stay organized, under budget, and on schedule. You take great pride in your work and enjoy coming to work every day.
