The Opportunity
An established commercial roofing contractor in the Northwest Chicago suburbs is looking for an experienced Commercial Roofing Project Manager to join its team.
This is a permanent position with the company; however, the successful candidate will initially take responsibility for a major commercial roofing project in Kenosha, Wisconsin, expected to run approximately 12–18 months.
Candidates must be comfortable commuting to Kenosha regularly throughout the project. Once completed, the position will transition to projects throughout the Greater Chicago market.
This is a field and production-focused PM role for someone who understands commercial roofing, enjoys being close to the work and knows how to keep crews, schedules, budgets and clients moving in the right direction.
What You'll Be Doing
Manage the Kenosha project from mobilization through completion and closeout
Coordinate Superintendents, field crews, subcontractors and suppliers
Maintain project schedules and production targets
Monitor jobsite safety, quality and manufacturer requirements
Coordinate materials, equipment and project logistics
Manage change orders and assist with job costing and cost control
Identify and resolve field issues before they impact schedule or budget
Maintain communication with clients, general contractors and internal teams
Ensure QA/QC standards are maintained throughout the project
Manage project documentation, turnover and closeout
What We're Looking For
5+ years of commercial roofing project management experience
Strong knowledge of BUR, EPDM, modified bitumen, TPO, PVC and metal roofing systems
Waterproofing experience is highly desirable
Experience managing mid- to large-scale commercial roofing projects
Strong field leadership and crew coordination experience
Solid understanding of scheduling, production, safety and QA/QC
Ability to communicate effectively with field teams, clients and general contractors
Organized, accountable and comfortable taking ownership of complex projects
Ability to commute to Kenosha, WI for approximately 12–18 months
Compensation & Benefits
$120,000–$130,000 base salary
Performance bonus
Company vehicle
Competitive benefits package
Strong project backlog
Permanent position with long-term opportunity beyond the Kenosha assignment
Why Consider This Opportunity?
This is not a 12–18 month contract position.
You'll be joining an established Chicago-area commercial roofing contractor with an experienced team, repeat clients and a steady pipeline of work.
The immediate priority is a significant project in Kenosha, giving you the opportunity to take ownership of a major job from the field while joining a company that can offer stability well beyond this initial assignment.
