We need an experienced PM who can take ownership of major losses from initial response through estimating, production, financial management, invoicing and final closeout.

Ensure budgets, POs and work orders are established before work proceeds

Manage timely invoicing and Accounts Receivable follow-up

Identify project risks early and drive them to resolution





Client & Commercial Relationships You will be one of the primary faces of Paul Davis on our largest projects, working with commercial property owners, property managers, adjusters, consultants, engineers, brokers and other stakeholders. You’ll manage expectations, solve problems and build relationships that lead to repeat business.

You’ll also support the growth of our commercial and large-loss division through client engagement, networking and industry events.

Technical Leadership You should be comfortable managing complex commercial projects involving structural and building-envelope components, HVAC, electrical and mechanical systems, water and fire mitigation, advanced structural drying, environmental hazards, building codes, permitting and commercial site safety.

You don’t need to perform every technical function, but you need the construction and restoration knowledge to lead the project, challenge information when necessary and make sound decisions.

Financial Accountability You will be accountable for estimating and scope accuracy, budgeting, cost control, gross profit performance, change orders, invoicing, AR follow-up and financial forecasting.

Successful project delivery means

Experience managing large-loss, complex or commercial projects

Strong construction knowledge

Xactimate experience

Strong estimating, budgeting and financial management skills

Ability to manage contractors and multiple projects

Excellent communication, leadership and problem-solving skills

Ability to operate independently, make decisions and take ownership

Valid driver’s licence

Experience with commercial insurance losses, RMS, Encircle, environmental remediation and complex building systems is an asset.

Work Requirements Large losses don’t always happen between 9 and 5. This role requires participation in our on‑call rotation, availability for significant emergency losses and the ability to travel for CAT events when required.

Why Paul Davis? We are building a high-performance restoration company with ambitious plans for continued growth in commercial, large loss and catastrophe response. This is an opportunity to take ownership of some of our largest and most challenging projects while helping shape the growth of our commercial business.

Don’t meet every qualification? Let’s talk anyway.

We value experience, leadership, construction knowledge and the ability to get results. If you believe you can succeed in this role but don’t check every box, we still want to hear from you.
