Why Capital Industries

Capital Industries is a fast-growing specialty construction firm providing simple solutions for the most complex projects by connecting people and building relationships.

When you join us, you become part of a team that values your contribution and celebrates collective success. At Capital Industries, we don’t just build projects. WE. BUILD. PEOPLE.

About the Role

As a Project Manager, you’ll lead projects typically ranging from $5–$10 million, managing scope, schedule, budget, subcontractors, and client relationships from start to finish.

• Own project financials, including budgeting, forecasting, cost tracking, and change order management
• Drive coordination across subcontractors, field teams, and design partners to ensure scopes and schedules stay aligned
• Maintain clear, accurate project documentation (RFIs, submittals, meeting notes) to ensure visibility and accountability
• Build and manage strong client and partner relationships through consistent communication and updates
• Identify and resolve risks early, including design conflicts, schedule impacts, and cost issues
• Lead project closeout, including punchlist, documentation, and turnover

What You Bring

• 4–7 years of construction project management experience, including responsibility for projects in the $3M–$10M range
• Strong understanding of project financials, including budgeting, forecasting, and change order management
• Experience coordinating subcontractors and managing project execution across multiple scopes
• Ability to manage multiple priorities while maintaining organization, accountability, and follow-through
• Strong communication skills and ability to build relationships with clients, partners, and internal teams

Why Capital is Different:

• We. Build. People. We invest in our team’s growth through real mentorship, leadership development, and hands-on experience, not just talk. Many of our leaders have grown within Capital, and we expect our PMs to do the same
• Real ownership, not just oversight. Our PMs are trusted to own outcomes, including financial performance, decision-making, and how projects are executed
• Opportunity to shape how we build. As a growing company, we’re actively improving processes and systems, PMs here help define how work gets done
• We run toward challenges, not away from them. Complex projects, tight timelines, and tough situations are part of the jo, we step in, take accountability, and find solutions
• We build strong relationships that last. We prioritize trust and communication with owners, partners, and each other to consistently deliver successful outcomes

Bonus Points
