Project Manager - Residential Remodeling

Gill Construction · Nolanville, TX (Bell County) · Full-Time

Remodeling Work Close to Home - Not Hours Down I-35

If you have proven residential remodeling experience and live in the Bell County area, this is an opportunity to lead projects you can be proud of without spending hours commuting to Austin.

A daily commute to Central Austin can easily take 2+ hours round trip-10-12 hours a week and more than 500 hours a year. That is time, fuel, vehicle wear, and energy you could be putting back into your life. At Gill Construction, you can work closer to home, get your evenings back, and focus your time where it matters: delivering excellent remodeling projects for our clients.

Our $70,000-$95,000 base salary is aligned with the Bell County market, with additional performance-based bonus opportunities.

About Gill Construction

Gill Construction is a residential design-build remodeling firm built around craftsmanship, consistency, and accountability. We believe great projects come from clear communication, strong organization, and people who take ownership from start to finish.

Our team uses structured processes and construction management technology-including Buildertrend and JobTread-to keep projects organized and moving forward. We value humility, accountability, collaboration, and doing what we say we will do.

What You'll Own

As Project Manager, you will take full ownership of remodel execution across multiple active projects, including:

• Build, maintain, and enforce project schedules with daily and weekly lookaheads.
• Coordinate and sequence trade partners to prevent downtime and trade stacking.
• Manage projects in occupied homes while protecting the homeowner relationship.
• Communicate proactively with clients about progress, expectations, costs, and schedules.
• Identify unexpected conditions, develop solutions, and manage change orders when issues are uncovered.
• Ensure new construction integrates cleanly with existing structures, finishes, and conditions.
• Conduct regular site walks to monitor progress, quality, safety, and jobsite standards.
• Coordinate material procurement to keep projects moving without unnecessary delays.
• Manage multiple remodeling projects simultaneously while maintaining attention to detail.
• Hold subcontractors and trade partners accountable for quality, schedules, and commitments.
• Mentor field staff and contribute to developing less experienced team members.

What We're Looking For

We're looking for someone with 2-5 years of residential remodeling experience and a demonstrated ability to lead projects from planning through completion.

The ideal candidate will have:

• Strong knowledge of residential remodel sequencing and renovation work.
• Experience working in occupied homes and existing structures.
• Experience managing multiple projects, schedules, and trade partners.
• Proven ability to manage both client relationships and field operations.
• Familiarity with construction management software such as Buildertrend or JobTread.
• Excellent organization, documentation, communication, and follow-through.
• Strong judgment and the ability to identify and solve problems before they affect schedule, quality, or client satisfaction.
• An accountable, supportive, team-first leadership style.
• A degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, or Architecture is a plus, but proven remodeling leadership experience matters more.

This Role Is Probably Not for You If...

Your background is primarily ground-up new construction, production building, or tract development.

Residential remodeling requires a different skill set. Homeowners may be living in the property while work is underway. Existing conditions can change the plan as soon as a wall is opened, and projects of different sizes may be operating simultaneously at different stages.

If your experience has primarily been taking homes from bare dirt to completion according to a fixed plan, remodeling may feel unfamiliar. That's okay-but this role requires someone who understands the realities of renovation work.

Compensation & Growth

• $70,000-$95,000 base salary, depending on experience
• Performance bonuses tied to project success and company-set gross margins
• Opportunity to grow into senior leadership
• Reduced commuting time, fuel costs, and vehicle wear
• A structured, process-driven environment
• A team built on ownership, respect, collaboration, and follow-through
