Project Manager, K12 Construction – Gainesville
An experienced Project Manager is required to lead the delivery of K12 construction projects in and around Gainesville. This role will oversee projects from pre-construction through to completion, ensuring that work is delivered safely, on schedule, within budget and to the required quality standards.
You will act as the principal point of contact for clients, consultants, contractors and stakeholders, coordinating all project activities and maintaining clear, professional communication throughout. The successful candidate will be confident managing multiple priorities and will bring a thorough understanding of commercial construction, ideally within education or other occupied public-sector environments.
Key responsibilities
- Manage the full project lifecycle, including planning, procurement, construction, commissioning and handover.
- Develop and maintain detailed programmes, budgets, forecasts and project documentation.
- Coordinate architects, engineers, subcontractors, suppliers and internal teams.
- Review drawings, specifications, submittals, schedules and change requests.
- Monitor progress, productivity, quality and compliance with approved plans.
- Lead project meetings, provide regular updates and resolve issues promptly.
- Identify risks and implement effective mitigation strategies.
- Administer contracts, manage variations and support commercial reporting.
- Ensure compliance with health and safety requirements, building regulations and relevant education-sector standards.
- Support a smooth, high-quality handover, including snagging, close-out documentation and client training.
About you
You will be an organised and decisive construction professional with a proven record of successfully delivering complex projects. Strong leadership, negotiation and problem-solving skills are essential, together with the ability to build positive working relationships across a diverse project team.
Applicants should have a degree, diploma or equivalent professional experience in construction management, civil engineering, architecture or a related discipline, alongside substantial experience managing commercial construction projects. Experience delivering schools, colleges or other public buildings would be highly advantageous. Proficiency with project management and scheduling software, cost-control systems and common construction documentation is expected.
A valid driving licence and the ability to travel to project sites are required. This is an excellent opportunity to take ownership of significant education projects while contributing to safe, functional facilities for students, staff and the wider community.
