Job description

Working at Foresight

Foresight is a Florida-based construction management firm with locations in Gainesville, Tampa, and Jacksonville. Since 2008, we’ve grown into one of the fastest-growing firms in the region, leading complex, high-impact projects across the Southeast and the Caribbean. We specialize in government, education, healthcare, industrial, institutional, and commercial work. Our teams are known for delivering with consistency, professionalism, and a strong commitment to operational excellence, earning trust and building long-term relationships.


We’ve also been named one of Florida’s Top 100 Places to Work and recognized by Inc. as one of America’s fastest-growing private companies because we invest in our people just as much as our projects.


At Foresight, we don’t just build projects — we build careers. That starts with a strong onboarding process, clear expectations, and real opportunities to grow. Whether you’re in the field or the office, you’ll be part of a team that values accountability, problem-solving, and follow-through.


Our name reflects how we operate: we plan ahead. We stay proactive, communicate early and often, and do the work up front to set our teams — and our projects — up for success.


Our Core Values guide everything we do:

  • Can-Do Attitude
  • Ownership Mentality
  • Responsiveness
  • Spirit of Excellence

If you’re looking for a place where you can do meaningful work, be part of a strong team, and grow your career — we’d like to meet you. At Foresight, we’re building more than just structures. We’re building something that lasts.

About the Role

Foresight Construction Group is seeking a methodical, detail-focused Project Manager to oversee large-scale institutional and commercial projects ranging from $5M–$50M. In this role, you’ll ensure projects are delivered with safety, accuracy, and financial control — from planning through closeout.


This role is for a disciplined leader who thrives in structured environments, values precision, and takes pride in seeing complex projects well executed.

What You'll Do

  • Lead project delivery with discipline: Manage contracts, budgets, and schedules with accuracy and consistency.
  • Plan and control schedules: Build detailed project schedules, track milestones, and proactively adjust to keep work on time.
  • Manage cost and risk: Oversee job cost reporting, forecasting, and profitability analysis with strict accountability.
  • Drive safety and quality: Enforce rigorous safety standards and ensure all work meets technical and compliance requirements.
  • Coordinate stakeholders: Maintain clear communication between owners, architects, trade partners, and internal teams.
  • Mentor the team: Provide steady, reliable guidance to project engineers and superintendents.
  • Resolve challenges with clarity: Address field conflicts through structured problem-solving and coordination.

Qualifications

  • 10+ years of construction project management experience, including ground-up builds.
  • In-depth knowledge of OSHA standards and construction safety best practices.
  • Proficiency in scheduling tools (MS Project, Primavera P6) and cost management systems.
  • Strong organizational skills with proven ability to manage details and documentation.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication; clear, concise, and professional.
  • Experience with general contracting, construction management, and design-build delivery methods.

What Sets You Apart

  • You are steady, reliable, and accountable — others trust you to keep projects on track.
  • You excel at analyzing data, budgets, and schedules to make informed decisions.
  • You thrive in structured, process-driven environments where precision matters.
  • You value consistency and quality and won’t cut corners to meet a deadline.
  • You mentor others by setting a strong example of discipline and responsibility.

Benefits

  • 100% employer-paid health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Life and disability insurance
  • Company phone and vehicle allowance
  • Paid time off
  • 401(k) retirement savings program
  • Weekly pay cycle
  • Paid training, certifications, and career development
