Job Description

Assistant Project Manager - Building Envelope Consultant

For 30 years, our client has been a prominent leader in New York's building envelope industry, known for its excellence in restoring some of the city's most iconic landmarks such as One Grand Central Place, The Flat Iron Building, and the Empire State Building. While their legacy is built on restoration, this particular role is not focused on historic restorations but rather on new construction and retrofit projects across the Tri-State area. Their commitment to quality and innovation has earned the trust of both public and private sector clients. With a people-focused business model that emphasizes leadership from within, the firm boasts an average employee tenure of 10 to 15 years, reflecting a culture that supports continuous growth, mentorship, and development.

Responsibilities:

  • Quickly grasp project requirements, ensuring proper planning, documentation, and compliance with client standards.
  • Monitor project costs and track progress, maintaining clear and transparent communication with all stakeholders.
  • Actively participate in both fieldwork and desk tasks, whether interacting with clients, owners, or handling project details.
  • Apply strong analytic and problem-solving skills, staying composed in unexpected situations.
  • Organize, prioritize, and manage multiple tasks to ensure an effective work-life balance.
  • Prepare and compile detailed support documentation and field reports for diverse projects, including new construction and retrofit conversion work across the Tri-State area.

Qualifications:

Educational & Professional Background:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Architecture or Engineering, or equivalent industry experience. Ideal candidates will have 3-5 years of construction experience, with a strong emphasis on new construction and retrofit conversion work.

Technical Expertise:

  • Solid understanding of exterior envelope systems including roofing systems, window systems, window walls, curtain walls, solid wall tapes, cavity walls, masonry walls, and foundational systems.
  • Familiarity with energy codes and their role in construction is a plus.
  • Proficient in AutoCAD, Bluebeam, and Microsoft 365.

Analytical & Communication Skills:

  • Demonstrated ability to read construction drawings, write detailed field reports, and compile supporting documentation.
  • Strong writing and verbal communication skills, with the capability to interact effectively with ownership, the construction team, and other stakeholders.

Flexibility & Adaptability:

  • Ability to pivot and adapt to projects with varying systems—from commercial New York buildings to upstate stick-built structures.
  • Open to training and development opportunities, with an ambition to pursue licensure and advance within the organization.

Travel & Mobility:

  • Must be willing and able to travel up to 2 hours from Manhattan for site visits.
  • A clean driver’s license (and insurance if using a personal vehicle) is preferred.

Cultural Fit:

  • Passionate about New York’s heritage and future, with a keen interest in shaping the built environment.
  • A team player who thrives in a collaborative, supportive work environment.
  • Eager to grow professionally in a company that values continuous development and internal leadership.

If you're ready to contribute your skills to groundbreaking new construction and retrofit projects while advancing your career within a client that values innovation and people development, we encourage you to apply for the Assistant Project Manager role.
