Construction & Equipment Project Manager

Salary Range: $110,000 – $125,000 DOE | Growth-Track Role

Sky Dine, Inc. is expanding across a diverse portfolio of food, beverage, and retail locations — including multiple airport operations.

We’re looking for a Construction & Equipment Project Manager who’s ready for the next step in their career: someone driven, ambitious, and eager to grow into broader leadership as our development pipeline continues to scale.

This is an upper mid-level role designed for a rising project manager who wants meaningful responsibility, direct access to decision-makers, and the opportunity to shape how our projects are executed company-wide.

What You’ll Lead

You’ll manage construction and equipment rollout projects from concept through completion, ensuring each location opens smoothly, efficiently, and with the quality our guests expect.

Core Responsibilities

• Develop and manage project plans, budgets, and schedules

• Bid, select, and oversee general contractors and subcontractors

• Lead procurement for equipment, furniture, and décor with a focus on cost, quality, and reliability

• Review and coordinate architectural and construction plans using DWG, Revit, or similar tools

• Oversee site readiness, equipment installation, and operational turnover

• Maintain equipment inventory and coordinate refresh cycles

• Coordinate and collaborate with internal teams — operations, culinary, finance, HR, and leadership — to ensure alignment on all project phases and requirements

• Travel to project sites during build-outs and refresh phases, with periodic follow-up visits thereafter

• Work directly with ownership and senior leadership on project strategy, standards, and execution

• Build strong vendor and supplier relationships through negotiation and performance management

Why This Role Stands Out

Direct Access to Ownership & Leadership

You’ll collaborate closely with ownership and senior leadership, influencing decisions and shaping how projects are delivered across the company.

A Clear Path to Advancement

As Sky Dine grows, so does this role. High performers will have opportunities to step into multi-site program leadership, standards and process development, construction & facilities oversight, and future director-level responsibilities.

High Autonomy & Real Ownership

You’ll run your projects with independence and trust, supported by leadership that values speed, clarity, and strong execution.

What You Bring

• Proven experience managing construction or equipment installation projects

• Strong understanding of construction methods, tools, and technologies

• Ability to read and coordinate architectural drawings (DWG, Revit preferred)

• Excellent organization, communication, and vendor-management skills

• A proactive, solutions-driven mindset

• Willingness to travel during build-outs and refresh phases, with periodic site visits afterward

• Ambition — you want to grow, take on more, and help build something bigger

Education & Credentials

• Bachelor’s degree preferred in Construction Management, Engineering, Architecture, Project Management, or a related field

• Equivalent experience considered for candidates with strong construction or equipment-installation backgrounds

• Project management certifications (PMP, CAPM, CM-Lean, or similar) are a plus but not required

• Technical proficiency with construction drawings (DWG, Revit) and project management tools is strongly preferred

Compensation & Benefits

• $110,000+ DOE

• Health, dental, vision, and Aflac voluntary benefits

• Paid Time Off

• 401(k) with company match

• Travel per diem, lodging, and expenses covered
