About Gilcor Construction


Gilcor Construction Corporation is a second-generation commercial construction and general contracting firm based in Barrington, IL, with deep roots in Chicagoland and a reputation for quality, responsiveness, and superior workmanship.

The company has a strong focus on commercial, healthcare, institutional, and telecommunications building and renovation work, with long-tenured staff and a family-oriented culture that values autonomy, teamwork, and minimal bureaucracy.

We’re seeking an experienced Commercial Construction Project Manager to lead and manage projects, primarily throughout the Chicagoland area.

The ideal candidate is a self-starting construction professional with strong estimating, bid walk, and project execution capabilities who thrives in a supportive, family-oriented environment with significant autonomy.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead all phases of assigned commercial construction projects (pre-construction through completion).
  • Conduct bid walks with clients, subcontractors, and internal teams; prepare accurate take-offs and assist with estimating.
  • Prepare cost estimates, budgets, scopes of work, and proposals using PlanSwift and company practices.
  • Manage project execution on schedule and within budget while ensuring quality and client satisfaction.
  • Utilize Procore to maintain project documentation, RFIs, submittals, schedules, daily logs, and change orders.
  • Coordinate and supervise subcontractors, consultants, and internal field teams.
  • Build and maintain strong client relationships with clear communication and responsiveness throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Monitor and report on project progress, financial performance, and risk mitigation.
  • Perform regular site visits (job walks) and ensure compliance with safety, building codes, and contract requirements.
  • Assist with purchasing, subcontract negotiations, and project closeout documentation.

Qualifications

Required:

  • 5+ years of commercial construction management experience.
  • Strong understanding of construction documents, estimating principles, and field coordination.
  • Ability to lead bid walks, prepare estimates, and manage project financials.
  • Excellent communication, organization, and problem-solving skills.

Preferred:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, Architecture, or related field (or equivalent experience).
  • Proficiency with Procore and construction estimating tools (e.g., PlanSwift).
  • Knowledge of Chicagoland permitting, local building codes, and typical commercial project logistics.
  • Proven ability to manage multiple small/medium commercial projects simultaneously.

Work Environment & Culture

  • Family-oriented company with low bureaucracy and a supportive leadership team.
  • High degree of autonomy in managing your project portfolio.
  • Long employee tenure and low turnover — strong team continuity and relationships.
  • Projects primarily within Chicagoland.
  • Growth opportunities and continued professional development.

Why Gilcor?

Gilcor offers a unique blend of professional challenge and personal support — allowing experienced construction professionals to exercise leadership without needless red tape.

You’ll be part of a team that values collaboration, integrity, craftsmanship, and community.
