Fulcrum Construction is a do-it-all, nationwide commercial construction company. Our home office is in Atlanta, with regional offices in Los Angeles and San Antonio. We’re a mid-sized General Contractor ($100 million/year) with a small company feel.
Retail construction is not just our bread and butter — it’s our fully-stuffed sandwich. We do it all, from $50,000 remodels to $15,000,000 ground up shopping centers — and everything in between. Most projects are in the $500,000 to $1.5 million range with an 8-12 week duration. With the changing retail landscape, we’ve expanded our construction services into a growing office and industrial portfolio, as well as convenience stores and quick-serve restaurants.
After 17+ years and over 1500 successful construction projects, we’re looking for an ambitious, full-time Project Manager to join our West Coast team at the Los Angeles (soon to be Long Beach) office, helping us to maintain our high standards of customer service, work ethic, and top-quality commercial construction — while contributing to Fulcrum’s family culture and continuing profitability.
OVERVIEW
As the West Coast team Commercial Construction Project Manager, you’ll be managing commercial construction projects from bid process through certificate of occupancy. You’ll be expected to manage multiple projects at once in various phases of development, while meeting or beating established budget and scheduling goals.
You’ll also be managing our lineup of great people: employees, subcontractors, a diverse group of customers that we’ve been working with for years, and new customers — who usually become repeat customers after working with us.
You’ll have the freedom to run your projects without being micromanaged, in a fast-paced environment, while surrounded by a supportive company team that’s fun to be around.
But wait, there’s more…

REQUIREMENTS
Not just anyone can be a Fulcrum Construction Commercial Construction Project Manager. To be seriously considered for this role, please have the following in regard to:
Experience
At least 3 years experience as a project manager. Experience in retail construction is preferred, but isn’t 100% necessary. If you have 3-10 years experience in construction, you’re in the ballpark.
Education
A degree in construction management or engineering is preferred but not required.
Tech Skills
We pride ourselves on being forward-thinking and tech savvy, so working knowledge of Microsoft Word, Excel and Project software is a must. Bluebeam experience is a big plus.
Characteristics
A “can-do” attitude and entrepreneurial spirit are essential for success in this position. The ability to learn quickly — and a passion for construction — can more than make up for a lack of specific experience or a construction degree. Very good at prioritizing and managing your time (and others). The ability to meet deadlines, every time.

- We have one of the lowest turnover rates in the industry. We hire great people, train them as needed, then get out of their way so they can do their jobs. No micromanaging.
- We value the time and sacrifices that our employees make for the success of Fulcrum Construction, and return the favor by sticking by our employees through hard times.
- We are here to be of service to our employees and customers. Take care of your employees and your employees will take care of your customers. It’s that simple.
If all that sounds like you, read on!
