At Stewart/Perry, we’re more than a construction company—we’re a people-first organization focused on building lasting relationships as well as exceptional projects. Headquartered on a 16-acre campus in Birmingham, Alabama, we specialize in commercial and retail construction across the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic. Since 1984, we’ve delivered high-quality work in 23 states. While retail construction remains a cornerstone of our business, we’ve steadily expanded into other sectors. Despite the scale of our projects, we maintain a close-knit culture where every team member plays a meaningful role.
We’re currently seeking an experienced Construction Project Manager to join our Birmingham-based team. If you’re someone who values ownership, enjoys collaborating across departments, and wants to be involved from pre-construction to closeout, we’d love to talk.
We are open to a Senior Construction Project Manager as well and compensation will be adjusted accordingly.
What You’ll Do:
- Lead the planning, coordination, and execution of commercial and retail construction projects from start to finish.
- Maintain strong relationships with owners, developers, and subcontractors—representing the Stewart/Perry brand with professionalism.
- Participate in project estimating and budgeting activities.
- Collaborate with engineers, architects, and stakeholders to define project specs and requirements.
- Manage subcontractor buyouts and ensure contract scopes are fully covered.
- Secure permits, licenses, and ensure regulatory compliance throughout the project lifecycle.
- Plan and schedule construction operations to meet deadlines and budget constraints.
- Monitor resource allocation (labor, materials, equipment) and resolve shortfalls proactively.
- Oversee on-site personnel and promote a culture of collaboration and respect.
- Track project progress, prepare detailed reports, and ensure adherence to safety standards.
- Mentor assistant project managers, co-ops, and interns.
- Take full ownership of cost and job reporting.
What You Bring:
- Minimum of 2+ years as a Project Manager and prior experience as an Assistant Project Manager.
- Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, Building Science, or a related field.
- Deep understanding of construction methods, project management best practices, and commercial building codes.
