construction manager
Building project leader
A construction manager oversees building projects from planning through completion, coordinating contractors, schedules, budgets, and safety compliance.
Unlike general contractors who typically employ workers directly, construction managers usually represent the owner's interests: We hired a construction manager to keep the renovation on track.
The role bridges architecture, engineering, and business.
