PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE POST - ONLY CANDIDATES THAT FILL OUT THE JOTFORM APPLICATION WILL BE CONSIDERED
Lighthouse Contracting Group builds custom homes and remodels around the Lakes Region, and our reputation gets rebuilt every day one on-time schedule, one accurate budget, one homeowner who actuallyenjoyedtheir remodel at a time. We’re looking for a Project Manager who takes that personally.
Here’s how it works around here: when a project hits production, the PMholds the baton. All of it. Every question, every RFI, every PO and CO, every budget line in JobTread it runs through you. That’s not pressure, that’s clarity. No committee, no confusion, no “who was supposed to order that?” You own it, and everyone clients, trades, vendors, designers knows exactly who to call.
This isn’t a “warm body with a clipboard” posting. We’re a tight, motivated crew with real systems, real support, and zero tolerance for chaos jobsites. If you’ve been duct-taping a disorganized company together with your own personal heroics, come see what it’s like when selections are ordered, files are ready, and the handoff actually happens deliberately, in front of the client, baton in hand.
What You’ll Actually Do
- Own everything during active construction on your projects schedule, site logistics, client communication, quality. Full stop.
- Be the single point of contact for clients from kickoff to completion. Proactive updates, honest conversations, no surprises.
- Own POs and Change Orders. Delegate the task if you want never the responsibility. Hard standard: executed within 1 week, period.
- Own the budget in JobTread: budget vs. actual, anticipated costs, variances flagged early numbers that tell the real story of the job.
- Coordinate foremen, crews, and trade partners so everyone knows what’s next and the materials are there when they need them.
- Enforce quality like it’s your own house catch deviations early, keep jobsites clean, safe, and brag-worthy.
- Work alongside a Lead PM and an Operations Manager who handle oversight and pre-production, so you can run the job not chase paperwork from three months ago.
You Might Be Our PM If...
- You physically cannot let a Change Order “sit for a bit.” It bothers you. Good.
- You’d rather deliver awkward news today than a bigger problem next week.
- Clients calm down when you pick up the phone because you always pick up the phone.
- A budget that’s “probably close” makes your eye twitch. Yours are current, accurate, and defensible.
- You’re solutions-minded: you show up with the fix, not just the problem.
- You live within 45 minutes of Gilford, NH this is a boots-on-site role, not a Zoom job.
- You have a valid driver’s license and reliable transportation.
- Residential remodeling experience preferred you know what’s behind the drywall of a 100-year-old lake house, and it doesn’t scare you.
- Project management software experience is a huge plus (we live in JobTread schedules, budgets, daily logs, all of it).
What We’re Not
- Not a “figure it out alone” shop you’ll have a Lead PM in your corner and an Operations Manager who tees up every project before it ever lands in your lap.
- Not a production-line tract builder this is custom work in real people’s homes, where the details matter and the clients notice.
- Not disorganized schedules live in JobTread, selections are ordered before kickoff, and everyone knows who holds the baton.
The Money & The Perks
- $35/hr starting pay, with earning potential of$40/hrafter our 6-month onboarding process.
- $10,000 in sign-on bonuses $7,500 paid after 90 days, another $2,500 at 6 months.
After 90 days:
- $455/mo. health insurance stipend.
- SIMPLE IRA with up to 3% company match.
- Company phone, truck & gas card.
- 6 paid holidays plus your birthday and vacation time.
After 6 months:

- A crew that actually likes each other, and a company that promotes from within.
