About Kennedy Property Development – Core Values & Principles

Kennedy Property Development has been in business since 2020 and currently has over 20+ active projects throughout the Twin Cities and surrounding suburbs. As we continue to grow, we’re seeking our next key hire, someone who wants to expand, lead, and win at a high level. Our projects are diverse from remodels to new construction to land development, and we aim to separate ourselves from the pack as one of the top design, build, development firms in Minnesota. We don’t fit in a box and we like it that way.

Our values and core culture drive everything we do.

The Golden Rule
Treat others how you want to be treated. It’s about respect, integrity, and doing the right thing.

Whatever It Takes
Be relentless. Be results-driven. Do what’s necessary to win. No excuses. Find a way to achieve the results required.

Winning Attitude
Winners don’t complain, don’t blame. They take extreme ownership and accountability. They show up with a can-do attitude and a mindset of “we’ll figure it out.” They lead by example and put the team first.

Constant Improvement
This isn’t just about business, it’s about life. We strive to grow spiritually, mentally, physically, and financially. We read books, listen to podcasts, and constantly invest in becoming better people, leaders, and teammates.

We’re looking for individuals who share that same mentality.

Role Summary

We are seeking a hands-on, full-accountability Project Manager to oversee residential and commercial construction projects from start to finish. This person will be fully responsible for both the strategic planning and day-to-day execution of 7–12 active projects at a time, ranging from remodels to full-scale new builds and developments.

In our culture, Project Manager is an all-encompassing leadership role managing trades, schedules, budgets, communication, and quality on-site. This is not a desk job. You're expected to be in the field about half the time, and to take full ownership of the success and outcomes of the projects you lead.

Key Responsibilities

1. Full Lifecycle Project Management

• Own every phase from preconstruction to final punch list and closeout

• Develop project scopes, timelines, and material procurement plans

• Coordinate permitting with design professionals (architects, engineers, draftsmen)

• Lead strategic scheduling and long-lead item planning

• Create and develop construction budgets based on project goals, design intent, and material choices, working alongside the owner and designer

2. Daily Jobsite Oversight

• Walk job sites daily to ensure trade performance, progress, and cleanliness

• Align day-to-day activity with weekly and monthly goals

• Troubleshoot issues on-site, escalating only complex matters

• Ensure the job site is always inspection-ready

3. Budget and Financial Tracking

• Develop and manage budgets for each project

• Approve subcontractor invoices and vendor payments

• Prepare documentation for lender draw requests and track actuals vs. budget

4. Subcontractor and Team Management

• Build relationships with trades and vendors who align with company values, pricing, and quality standards

• Hold trades accountable to scope, schedule, and craftsmanship

• Proactively bring new subcontractors and suppliers to the table, not relying solely on the existing team

• Assist in onboarding new subs and trade partners to support growth

5. Client and Stakeholder Communication

• Act as the face of the project for clients, partners, and internal team members

• Lead project walkthroughs, coordinate with vendors, and handle key updates

• Respond quickly and clearly to maintain trust and resolve concerns

Expected Results

• Projects completed on-time, on-budget, and to spec

• Clean, organized, high-quality job sites

• Detailed and accurate daily reports and schedule updates

• Strong relationships with subcontractors, vendors, and clients

• Timely and clear communication with all stakeholders

Required Qualities & Experience

• 5+ years managing residential or commercial construction projects

• Strong understanding of scheduling, trade sequencing, budgeting, and permitting

• Experience with site supervision, subcontractor coordination, and client communication

• Demonstrated ability to manage budgets, track job costs, and submit draw requests

• Proven leadership, accountability, and problem-solving ability

• Highly organized and detail-oriented

• Comfortable in the field leading by example, solving problems, and driving results

• Clear communicator both in writing and in person

• Aligned with our core values (see above)

Compensation

• $75,000–$85,000 based on experience and track record

• Commission opportunities available for bringing in leads that close

• 90-day trial period as a 1099 contractor

• After successful 90 days, potential to convert to W-2 employee

• 30, 60, and 90-day performance reviews included
