Since 2017, we've built a strong reputation and are now scaling for significant growth. We're seeking a driven, highly motivated Sales & Project Manager who is passionate about both closing deals and ensuring successful project delivery. If you're hungry to generate new business, aren't afraid to pick up the phone, and want to be instrumental in our company's expansion, this is the role for you!

About the Role: Drive Sales & Manage Projects for Growth!

This critical dual-role position is the lifeblood of our growth strategy, combining direct client-facing sales responsibilities with hands-on project management. We're looking for someone who thrives on initiating client relationships, expertly estimating and selling new custom residential jobs, and then seamlessly overseeing their execution from start to finish. Your ability to proactively generate and close sales will be paramount to our continued success. While some project management experience is a plus, we are committed to training the right candidate in project coordination and execution.

Project Management & Client Satisfaction:

• Coordinate all aspects of awarded projects, including scheduling, subcontractor management, material procurement, and inspections.

• Ensure projects are consistently delivered on time, within budget, and to Springwood Builders' exacting quality standards.

• Maintain clear, consistent communication with clients, our carpentry team, and subcontractors throughout the project lifecycle.

• Proactively anticipate and swiftly resolve any on-site issues or challenges.

• Monitor project financials, accurately track change orders, and manage budgets.

• Conduct regular job site visits to ensure quality control and adherence to scope.

Preferred, But Not Required:

• 3-5 years of experience in residential construction, sales, or project coordination.
