Junior Project Manager – Landscape Construction

Build Outdoor Spaces. Coordinate Great Projects. Grow Your Career.

This is a landscape construction job.

We're looking for an organized, proactive, and people-focused Junior Project Manager to help coordinate real-world landscape construction projects from planning through completion.

In this role, you'll work with landscape crews, Foremen, subcontractors, suppliers, Project Managers, and homeowners to help turn plans into finished outdoor spaces.

You'll spend time both in the field and in the office—visiting active job sites, checking project progress, coordinating materials and deliveries, reviewing plans, communicating with crews, and helping keep projects organized and moving forward.

If you enjoy being around construction, solving problems, working with people, and seeing tangible results at the end of the day, this could be a great opportunity to grow your career.

This is an excellent role for someone with experience or interest in landscaping, landscape construction, construction coordination, or project administration who wants to develop into a strong Project Manager and future leader.

What You'll Do

As a Junior Project Manager, you'll support the planning, coordination, and execution of multiple landscape construction projects at different stages.

You'll work closely with Senior Project Managers, Foremen, field crews, subcontractors, suppliers, and clients to help keep projects safe, organized, on schedule, and within budget.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Review landscape construction plans, project specifications, estimates, and documentation
• Help prepare job folders, project checklists, schedules, and required paperwork
• Attend weekly scheduling and project coordination meetings
• Visit active landscape construction sites to check progress and identify potential issues
• Communicate regularly with Foremen and field crews to understand project needs and progress
• Coordinate material orders, deliveries, equipment, and site logistics

• Help coordinate inspections, permits, and change orders
• Support Foremen with project priorities, materials, and scheduling needs
• Help coordinate daily and weekly project schedules
• Communicate project updates with clients and internal teams
• Keep project information, schedules, budgets, and documentation organized and up to date
• Help identify problems before they become delays or added costs

• Meeting with homeowners and clients
• Working with subcontractors
• Identifying site challenges and helping find solutions
• Seeing patios, retaining walls, outdoor kitchens, walkways, planting, and complete backyard transformations take shape

You don't have to be a landscape construction expert on day one—but you should be genuinely interested in learning how outdoor construction projects are built.

What Makes You a Great Fit

You'll thrive in this role if you are:
