About the role

Job Description: We are seeking an experienced Senior Project Manager on behalf of a well-established real estate development and project management firm to join its growing team in Tampa, Florida. This organization has a proven track record of delivering complex commercial, mixed-use, multifamily, healthcare, and corporate interior projects across diverse markets. In this leadership role, you will be responsible for managing projects from early planning and procurement through construction, closeout, and occupancy. You will serve as the primary point of contact for clients, consultants, contractors, and key stakeholders, ensuring successful project delivery while maintaining schedule, budget, and quality objectives. Key responsibilities include leading project planning and execution efforts; managing project budgets, schedules, contracts, and risk mitigation strategies; facilitating meetings and driving accountability among project teams; overseeing consultants and construction partners; reviewing project reporting and documentation; preparing executive-level status updates; and leveraging technology and AI-enabled tools to improve project controls, communication, and reporting efficiency. The successful candidate will possess strong leadership, communication, and relationship-building skills, with the ability to manage multiple projects and stakeholders simultaneously. This role requires a proactive problem-solver who is comfortable navigating complex project challenges and making informed decisions in a fast-paced environment. Candidates should have experience leading commercial construction or development projects, managing project teams, and working directly with clients throughout the project lifecycle. Knowledge of project management platforms, scheduling software, budgeting tools, and document management systems is highly desirable. This is an outstanding opportunity for a driven project management professional who enjoys client-facing responsibilities, mentoring junior team members, and contributing to the growth of a dynamic organization. The position offers significant exposure to high-profile projects and the ability to play a key role in delivering successful outcomes for sophisticated clients. Candidates should be collaborative, accountable, and willing to travel periodically to project sites and client locations as needed. This job description is not intended to be an all-inclusive list of duties, responsibilities, or qualifications associated with the position.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
