Build what’s next for San Francisco housing


At Structure Properties, our buildings are always improving. A vacant unit gets a full renovation. A soft-story building gets its seismic retrofit. An unused garage becomes a new ADU. We are looking for a Construction Manager to lead that work from the first site walk to the final inspection sign-off. This role is for someone who enjoys the full life of a project.

What you’ll do


Plan and scope

• Review project assignments from Property Managers and Asset Managers, visit the site, and define the scope of work
• Collaborate with architects, engineers, and designers on plans that meet Structure standards and make the most of existing space
• Schedule inspections and compile reports for due diligence ahead of property acquisitions

Bid and contract

• Prepare RFPs, gather competitive bids, and recommend the best-qualified contractor
• Present bids, budgets, and recommendations to Property Owners and secure approval before work begins
• Negotiate and execute contracts with general and specialty contractors, and manage change orders
• Research and onboard new contractors, architects, and engineers, and verify licensing and insurance, including General Liability and Workers’ Compensation

Permit and coordinate

• Manage entitlements and permits from opening through close with DBI, Planning, and other agencies
• Coordinate service upgrades, new meters, shutoffs, and reconnections with PG&E, SFPUC, and other utilities
• Procure owner-provided appliances and equipment for contractor installation

Build and deliver

• Build and maintain project schedules, and hold contractors accountable for timely, quality work
• Visit job sites regularly to monitor progress, workmanship, and code compliance
• Manage unit turnovers and report on timelines
• Partner with Property Managers to communicate construction impacts to tenants and keep tenant relations positive

Budget and fund

• Prepare construction budgets and track costs against the approved budget
• Forecast cash needs and request owner funding in advance when a building’s cash flow can’t cover project payments
• Work with Accounting on proposals, invoices, and payments so vendors are paid on time
• Keep Property Owners informed on progress, budget, and schedule

Improve

• Maintain organized records of bids, contracts, permits, change orders, and invoices
• Find and implement project management tools that streamline how we work
• Keep growing through courses, seminars, and local professional organizations

What you’ll bring

• At least 3 years of construction management experience
• Working knowledge of the permitting and inspection process
• A firm grasp of codes, regulations, and what compliance looks like in the field
• Clear, professional communication with Property Owners, contractors, and city officials
• Strong organization and the ability to run multiple projects at once

What you'll get paid

• Base salary plus commission on the projects you manage
