Field Project Manager - Onsite
ABOUT INNSPACE
At InnSpace, our mission is to help Hotel Owners perform hotel renovations and hotel conversions seamlessly. Property Improvement Plans (PIPs) are our world. Since 1994, our in-house service offering expanded to include technical preconstruction, PIP navigation & negotiation, interior design, FF&E procurement, coordination of project logistics, onsite schedule management, installation, and general construction. Offering these services in-house allows for a more efficient and seamless process, provides a single point of contact, faster delivery, and cost control from the outset. We enjoy great working relationships with renowned hotel brands, including Hilton, Best Western, Marriott and IHG.
As Field Project Manager, you will play a vital role in the construction phase of a hotel renovation, responsible for collaborating with the Superintendent, preconstruction department, design department, procurement department, and subcontractors while reporting to the principal of construction and Senior Construction Manager. A large part of this role is being an onsite leader (with the superintendent) while spending 7 days per week on the jobsite, in the hotel, as it is being renovated. A clean, private hotel room will be provided. This role will be leading the effort to deliver the project on time and on budget. After several of these 3–6-month Hotel renovation projects over a few years, our intent is to grow our Field PM’s into senior construction managers who oversee multiple projects at once, work remotely, and only have to visit the site once per month. There is room for career growth.
