Project Manager

Own the project. Wow the customer. Watch it go up.

At Awnex, we design and build the architectural metal systems you see on the storefronts and drive-thrus of some of the best-known brands in the country: awnings, canopies, and more. We’re looking for a Project Manager who thrives on turning a customer’s order into a finished, installed, beautiful result.

You’ll be the person who makes it happen. From the moment an order is released until the last piece is delivered and installed, you’re the go-to contact for our customers and the glue between Engineering, Production, Sales, Estimating, and Procurement. No two days look the same, and that’s the fun of it.

What you’ll do:

• Be the face of Awnex for your customers, keeping them informed, confident, and excited from order release through delivery and installation
• Build and maintain project schedules that keep every job on track
• Coordinate engineering reviews and approvals for drawings and specifications
• Partner with Production and Procurement to line up materials, schedules, and priorities
• Review project documentation for accuracy before it hits the shop floor
• Spot risks early, such as schedule conflicts, material shortages, or design constraints, and solve them before they become problems
• Document changes and keep every stakeholder in the loop
• Support multi-location and phased rollouts
• Build strong relationships with customers, contractors, and installation partners
• Make sure Sales and Estimating handoffs are clean and complete
• Escalate complex issues to senior project managers or leadership when it makes sense
• Join internal project meetings to review progress and tackle challenges head-on
• Uphold our company values and help keep our workspace clean, orderly, and safe

What you bring:

• 3+ years of project coordination or project management experience in construction, manufacturing, engineered products, or architectural building systems
• Experience managing customer projects, timelines, and cross-functional teams
• Strong organizational and problem-solving skills with an eye for detail
• Excellent communication and customer service skills
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office (Excel, Outlook, etc.)
• High school diploma required; bachelor’s degree preferred

Nice to have:

• Basic understanding of engineering drawings, fabrication processes, or installation practices
• Experience with project management software (QuickBase a plus)
