Are you the person who keeps projects moving, spots problems before they become expensive, and isn't afraid to get involved on-site?

Ishita Interiors is looking for an Assistant Project Manager to help bring luxury residential design projects to life across the Greater Asheville area.

This is a hands-on project role, not a desk-only coordinator position. You'll work alongside the Project Manager, design team, contractors, and trades to keep projects on schedule, on budget, and up to standard.

• Coordinate with the Project Manager to ensure all project phases are executed smoothly and efficiently.
• Monitor project timelines and budgets, making adjustments as needed to keep everything on track.
• Facilitate communication between design teams, contractors, and trades to foster a collaborative work environment.
• Conduct regular site visits to assess progress, quality, and compliance with design specifications.
• Identify potential issues early and propose effective solutions to prevent delays or cost overruns.
• Assist in preparing and maintaining project documentation, ensuring accuracy and accessibility.
• Support the procurement process by liaising with suppliers and managing material deliveries to meet project timelines.

• Experience in coordinating contractors, subcontractors, and trades to ensure seamless project execution.
• Ability to manage project schedules, deadlines, and dependencies effectively, keeping everything on track.
• Proven track record of supporting construction bidding and reviewing contractor proposals with a keen eye for detail.
• Strong skills in tracking budgets, change orders, and maintaining comprehensive project documentation.
• Experience conducting site visits and monitoring construction progress to ensure quality and adherence to plans.
• Ability to review plans and specifications, identifying and flagging potential issues proactively.
• Demonstrated problem-solving skills in addressing delays, scheduling conflicts, and site challenges efficiently and effectively.
