Great companies start with great people, and we're looking for one more.

Placemaker Construction is the general contracting arm of Placemaker Group, a vertically integrated real estate company with 20+ years building across the Lower Mainland. We deliver residential, mixed-use, commercial, institutional, and community projects for clients across BC. We also work hand-in-hand with our sister company, Placemaker Communities, on select projects— carrying those projects from first concept through to occupancy — which adds to our team's range of experience across a wide variety of project types.

We're a collaborative, growing team that gives people real ownership of their work, room to bring their experience to the table, and space to keep growing with the company.

We're looking for an experienced Project Manager, based out of our North Vancouver headquarters, to run a mix of ground-up wood-frame residential, commercial build-outs, and tenant improvements. This role will support one of our projects located in the Lytton area, requiring regular travel to site — roughly 1–2 days a week, as needed, throughout the project. The right person is comfortable with the drive and adaptable enough to accommodate site visits, client meetings, and project milestones.
