Job Summary:
The Project Manager leads project management for capital improvement, infrastructure, and large-scale maintenance projects across Somersett Owners Association’s amenities and common areas, including the Canyon Nine golf course, recreational facilities and buildings, community landscaping and open space, streets, maintenance and storage facilities, and civil and drainage infrastructure. Projects range from small-scale equipment and infrastructure work to larger capital improvements, and all require the same level of diligence in scope, bidding, and oversight. Acting as the Association’s owner’s representative, this role develops scopes of work, solicits and evaluates competitive bids and RFPs, and oversees contractors from project award through completion.

The Project Manager focuses on planning, budgeting, and overseeing capital and infrastructure projects from scope development through completion, coordinating closely with the Association’s operations staff, who continue to handle routine, day-to-day upkeep. For larger-scale replacements and improvements, such as major equipment or system upgrades, the Project Manager leads the process: developing scopes of work, managing the RFP and bidding process, and overseeing contractors through completion. A background or strong working interest in both finance and budgeting and in construction or capital-project management is valued in this role, given its mix of financial oversight and field-based project execution.

• Conduct site inspections and quality control reviews to confirm completed work meets specifications, contract terms, and industry standards.
• Coordinate with Association operations staff on project scope, sequencing, and operational impacts, particularly for larger-scale equipment, infrastructure, or system replacements.
• Review civil, landscape, and infrastructure plans, drawings, and technical specifications relevant to assigned projects.
• Collaborate with city, county, state, and utility agencies on permitting, compliance, and community improvement projects.
• Maintain project documentation, including contracts, change orders, warranties, and as-built records.
