EXPERIENCED PROJECT MANAGER WANTED FOR GREATER CHICAGOLAND AND THE SOUTH SUBURBS

Hello BP community,

I find myself in need of a project manager. I have three projects now, one is listed, and the two others are in work. The problem is, I now recognize that "project management-people management" is not my strong suit.

Maybe a little too late for these 3 projects, however, going forward I will need someone capable of handling multiple (3-4) projects at one time.

I've had some experience in it, but what I have discovered lately, (at great cost to me) is;

  1. I don't have enough experience to always know when a contractor is giving me the runaround
  2. I lack the skills necessary to manage people in that type of work environment
  3. I have no interest in being involved in the day to day operations of a fix and flip
  4. I do have great interest and ability in finding and negotiating solid deals, and aquiring the funding to move these deals to closing

What I need is a freelance PM with a proven, documented track record of at least 3 recent (within 24 months) successful projects brought to market. perferably on time and on budget. I'm open to discussions about salary, bonuses. and partnerships.

Some of the responsiblities include:

  1. Look at houses that I might be interested in
    - Put together basic rehab estimates (something I can start with when putting together a budget)
    - Get bids and negotiate with contractors
    - Manage contractors on a day-to-day basis
    - Manage schedule, budget and quality for all work done
    - Put together material lists and order materials
    - Be around for deliveries
    - Get houses ready for showings
    - Deal with inspectors/appraisers
    - Deal with alarms when they go off
    - Anything else that may come up on a day-to-day basis

I'm growing my business and I want to focus on that growth, not on dealing with slick contractors who only care about their bottom line. I'm fair minded and I'm willing to pay a fair portion of the profits to the right person who is as interested in growing as I am.

Please email me if you meet the qualifications for this position.

Thanks,

Don
