About The Role
BUILD IT's Preconstruction Services team carries a project from design through permitting into construction, all under one roof — getting involved early, while a project is still being designed, and keeping a construction budget in mind throughout so what gets designed is also what can be built, on budget. As Project Manager, Preconstruction Services, you'll own that mandate from initial RFP through to the start of construction. You'll represent the project across feasibility, design development, and permitting — leading constructability review, value engineering, high-level budget oversight, and consultant procurement — so the handoff from design into build is seamless.

Review designs for buildability and lead value engineering with the design team

Track project costs at a high level and support GMP development and owner negotiation

Own consultant procurement — RFPs, quote comparison, and contract negotiation

Build and maintain the project schedule from feasibility through to construction start

Initiate long-lead procurement and advise on site logistics and phasing

Lead preconstruction meetings, client relationships, and site visits





Own a formal handoff to the construction team, with full documentation

What we’re looking for

Bachelor's degree in construction management, engineering, architecture, or a related field

5–8 years of relevant experience in preconstruction, project management, or a related role within commercial construction

Strong technical judgment and the confidence to flag risk early

Excellent communication skills — you'll be managing clients, consultants, and internal teams at once

Proficiency with Procore and AI tools

What We Offer

A vibrant corporate culture where safety is the #1 priority

Monthly employee appreciation events

Access to family-friendly group health benefits program
