About Kamran & Company

Position Summary

Key Responsibilities

• Own the project from award to closeout. Manage all phases of assigned projects with full accountability for schedule, budget, and client satisfaction. No handoffs — you own it start to finish.
• Build and hold the schedule. Develop detailed project plans with sequenced milestones, procurement lead times, installation windows, and inspection requirements. Maintain schedule discipline throughout execution.
• Manage the budget. Establish project budgets, track actuals against cost-to-complete, and manage buyout to protect margin. Flag variances early and take corrective action before they become problems.
• Drive change order discipline. Identify, document, and price all scope changes. Ensure change orders are captured, approved, and billed. Unexecuted scope changes are a margin leak — you close that gap.
• Coordinate the full project team. Work with internal Project Coordinators, field installers, fabrication shop coordination, and subcontractors. Everyone on the project knows their role and what is expected.

• Serve as the primary client contact. Own the client relationship from kickoff through final acceptance. Proactive communication, accurate status updates, and fast resolution of issues are non-negotiable.
• Interface with GCs and ownership groups. Represent Kamran & Company at owner meetings, OAC meetings, and site coordination calls. Communicate with authority and precision.
• Manage submittals and RFIs. Oversee the submittal process, track RFI responses, and ensure design and procurement decisions are made on time to protect the schedule.
• Deliver structured status reporting. Maintain clear, current project dashboards and provide regular written updates to internal leadership and clients. No surprises.

• Own the WIP on your projects. Work with the FP&A Analyst and Accounting to ensure your projects have accurate cost-to-complete estimates, current billing positions, and no stale data in the WIP report.
• Manage AIA billing. Prepare and submit timely AIA applications for payment. Understand percentage-of-completion mechanics and ensure billing reflects true project progress.
• Protect margin through procurement. Drive buyout discipline — identify savings versus estimate and flag exposure. Every dollar of buyout savings is a dollar of margin protected.
• Track and close retainage. Pursue retainage release proactively at closeout. Retainage sitting idle is cash that belongs to the company.

• Follow project process standards. Adhere to documentation standards, update cadences, and WIP accuracy on your projects.
• Contribute to PM process improvement. Identify workflow gaps, tool improvements, and process breakdowns. Bring solutions, not just observations.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Architecture, Business, or related field required.
• 3+ years of project management experience in commercial construction, foodservice equipment, or related contracting environment.
• Track record managing projects from $500K to $5M with accountability for schedule and budget.
• Proficiency with AIA billing, percentage-of-completion accounting, and subcontract management.
• Strong working knowledge of construction documents, submittal processes, RFI management, and closeout procedures.
• Exceptional communication skills — written and verbal — at the owner, GC, and trade level.
• High organizational discipline and the ability to manage multiple active projects simultaneously without sacrificing detail.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in commercial foodservice equipment procurement, design-build contracting, or kitchen construction.
• Familiarity with Procore or comparable construction project management platforms.
• Experience with NetSuite or comparable ERP system.
• PMP certification or equivalent project management credential.

Our Core Values — RACE

• Responsiveness. We respond — to clients, to vendors, to each other. Speed of response is not a courtesy; it is a competitive advantage and a reflection of how seriously we take our commitments.
• Accountability. We own our work and our results. Every deliverable has a name and a date. When something goes wrong, we diagnose and fix it — we don't deflect.
• Collaborative. We win as a team. Project Managers don't operate in silos — they coordinate across Estimating, Procurement, Finance, and Operations. The best outcomes come from people who share information freely and solve problems together.
• Empathy. We lead with respect for the people around us — teammates, clients, and partners alike. We take time to understand before we act, and we treat people the way we want to be treated.

What Success Looks Like

• Have full command of all assigned active projects — schedule, budget, WIP status, and client relationship — with no gaps or unresolved open items.
• Be running weekly project update cadences with clients and providing clean WIP inputs to Accounting and Finance without prompting.
• Have identified at least one change order or scope exposure on an active project and driven it to resolution.
• Earned the trust of the project coordinator(s), field team, and internal operations leadership as someone who owns their projects and communicates proactively.
