## Job description

## About the Job

Brookwood Group is a boutique owner's representative and program management firm with roots tracing back to 1945. We manage programs across healthcare, education, government, and commercial sectors—always exclusively on the owner's side of the table. We're growing, and we're looking for early-career professionals who want to learn owner's representation from the ground up.

We are seeking an Assistant Project Manager to support project delivery on active academic buildings, research facilities, student housing, campus infrastructure, and multi-building capital programs. You'll work alongside senior project managers, learning how to represent university administrators, college facilities departments, and higher education boards while taking on increasing responsibility for day-to-day project coordination. This isn't a role where you'll be buried in paperwork—you'll be on job sites, in meetings, and directly involved in keeping projects on track. We welcome candidates from any U.S. location who are willing to travel to project sites as assignments require.

If you've got a couple years of construction experience and want to build a career on the owner's side of the table, this is your opportunity to grow with a firm that will invest in your development.

## Key Responsibilities

- Support senior project managers in the day-to-day coordination of construction projects on behalf of the owner.
- Track and process RFIs, submittals, and change orders—ensuring timely responses and accurate documentation.
- Attend project meetings, prepare meeting minutes, and follow up on action items.
- Monitor project schedules and budgets, flagging variances to senior team members.
- Coordinate with contractors, architects, and consultants to resolve day-to-day issues.
- Assist with regulatory submittals and track approval status related to state higher education construction requirements, campus master plans, and institutional standards.
- Prepare status reports, progress photos, and other project documentation.
- Support punch list coordination, closeout documentation, and warranty tracking.

## Requirements

- 2-4 years of experience in construction project management, field engineering, or project coordination.
- Basic understanding of construction contracts, drawings, and specifications.
- Proficiency with project management software (Procore, e-Builder, or similar) and MS Office/Bluebeam.
- Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.
- Clear written and verbal communication skills.
- Willingness to travel to project sites as assignments require.
- Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Architecture, or related field.

## Preferred Qualifications

- Experience on higher education facilities, including laboratories, libraries, student centers, and residential halls.
- Exposure to owner's representative or program management work (vs. GC-side only).
- Familiarity with state higher education construction requirements, campus master plans, and institutional standards.
- Working toward CCM, PMP, or LEED AP certification.

## What You'll Gain

- Hands-on mentorship from experienced owner's representatives who will invest in your growth.
- Real responsibility from day one—not years of busy work before you touch a real project.
- Exposure to diverse project types in colleges, universities, and research institutions.
- A clear path to Project Manager and beyond as the firm grows.
- AI-powered project management tools that make your job easier—we're building the future of OR, and you'll be part of it.
- Flexibility to work remotely while traveling to project sites as needed.

Why Brookwood? We were co-founded by George Heery: the person who literally invented much of what we now call Construction Management and Program Management, including the Bridging method. That's our foundation and it's a rich legacy of serving clients and delivering construction projects. But we're not living in the past. We're building AI-powered tools that automate the tedious work and give our people on the ground actual superpowers. The goal isn't efficiency for its own sake, it's serving our clients better and bringing some joy back to managing construction projects. If that sounds like the kind of place you want to be, let's talk.
