Why Join Chapter
Chapter is one of the fastest-growing design-build firms in the Northeast, specializing in high-end residential renovations. We combine architecture, interior design, procurement, and construction to deliver an exceptional client experience from concept to completion.
We're looking for an organized, driven, and hands-on Assistant Project Manager to support our growing Westchester operation.

What You'll Do
Assist in managing multiple residential renovation projects throughout Westchester County.
Support Project Managers with scheduling, budgeting, and day-to-day project coordination.
Visit job sites regularly to monitor progress, quality, safety, and subcontractor performance.
Coordinate subcontractors, vendors, deliveries, and inspections.
Communicate with clients, architects, designers, and internal teams.
Review plans, specifications, and project documentation.
Help identify and resolve project issues before they become problems.
Maintain accurate project records, schedules, and reports.
Ensure projects stay on schedule while maintaining Chapter's quality standards.
What We're Looking For

Experience coordinating multiple trades on active construction projects.
Strong organizational and communication skills.
Ability to read construction drawings and specifications.
Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment and managing multiple priorities.
Proficient with technology and construction management software.
Detail-oriented with a proactive mindset.
Technology & AI
Comfortable using AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, or equivalent) as a real part of daily work -- not occasionally, and not as a novelty
Curious and open-minded approach to emerging technology; sees AI as a multiplier rather than a threat
Strong software proficiency and general computer literacy; picks up new platforms quickly without hand-holding
Organized in digital environments -- files, communications, and workflows managed clearly and consistently
Additional requirements
Valid driver's license.
Reliable personal vehicle for travel between project sites.
Authorization to work in the United States.
What We Offer
Competitive salary of $70,000-$90,000, based on experience.

Opportunities for career growth into a Project Manager role.
