Senior Project Manager

Job description

ABOUT THE JOB Brookwood Group has been protecting owner interests in construction since 1989. Our lineage traces back to George T. Heery: one of the original developers of the Construction Project Management profession and creator of the Bridging delivery method. We've managed over $10 billion in construction programs across healthcare, education, government, and commercial sectors. Now we're looking for senior professionals who want to help us grow. We are seeking experienced owner's representatives and program managers who have developed strong relationships working directly with building owners and institutional clients. If you've spent your career earning the trust of the people who actually own these buildings—and you're looking for a platform to continue serving those clients without the overhead of running your own firm—Brookwood may be the right fit. This role offers significant autonomy to manage client relationships while leveraging Brookwood's resources, reputation, and technology platform. If you're tired of working for firms that don't share your commitment to actually representing the owner's interests, let's talk. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES - Lead complex capital programs from planning through closeout—healthcare, education, government, civic, or commercial. - Cultivate client relationships and develop new business opportunities. - Serve as the owner's trusted advisor on budget, schedule, quality, and risk management. - Navigate local and state regulatory environments, permitting processes, and jurisdictional requirements. - Mentor junior staff and contribute to firm-wide knowledge and best practices. - Contribute to proposals and business development pursuits. REQUIREMENTS - 15+ years in construction project management, program management, or owner's representation. - Demonstrated track record managing $25M+ capital projects. - Strong working relationships with building owners, institutional clients, or public agencies. - Excellent communication skills and executive presence. - Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Architecture, or related field. PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS - Experience navigating state and local regulatory approvals and project closeout requirements. - CCM, PMP, PE, RA, or LEED AP certification. - Experience with bond programs or multi-project capital improvement programs. WHAT YOU'LL GAIN - Competitive base compensation plus project-based incentives. - Meaningful equity participation for the right candidates. - Autonomy to manage your client relationships your way. - Back-office support so you can focus on clients, not admin. - A technology-forward platform with AI-powered project management tools. WHY BROOKWOOD? We were co-founded by George Heery: the person who literally invented much of what we now call Construction Management and Program Management, including the Bridging method. That's our foundation and it's a rich legacy of serving clients and delivering construction projects. But we're not living in the past. We're building AI-powered tools that automate the tedious work and give our people on the ground actual superpowers. The goal isn't efficiency for its own sake, it's serving our clients better and bringing some joy back to managing construction projects. If that sounds like the kind of place you want to be, let's talk.
