The Opportunity

At Brailsford & Dunlavey (B&D), we lead the planning, development, and management of the places that shape and strengthen communities—where people live, learn, work, and play. B&D partners with institutions, municipalities, and organizations to shape and deliver complex real estate and capital projects, providing strategic insight and end-to-end advisory services across the full project lifecycle.

B&D recently joined forces with Project Management Advisors, bringing together two nationally recognized leaders in program management and real estate advisory services. Together, the combined firm offers expanded capabilities across industries and throughout the full project lifecycle—from early-stage strategy and planning through execution and beyond.

Our healthcare project management team partners with clients to guide complex projects through planning, design, construction, and occupancy. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys being highly engaged with clients and project teams, thrives in fast-moving environments, and wants to continue developing professionally while taking on meaningful responsibility.

As an Assistant Project Manager, you will support healthcare projects from pre-construction through closeout, collaborating closely with senior project leaders, clients, architects, engineers, consultants, and contractors to ensure successful project execution.

• Coordinate and review architectural and engineering drawings, bid documents, and consultant deliverables
• Assist with contract administration activities and support the preparation of contracts, addenda, and project documentation
• Help manage permitting coordination and support project teams through regulatory approval processes
• Participate in meetings with clients, architects, engineers, contractors, and consultants to review project progress and resolve issues
• Maintain project tracking logs, open item lists, schedules, and budget documentation
• Monitor project budgets and schedules, including maintaining web-based project controls and reporting tools
• Observe construction progress and document field conditions, project updates, and safety-related observations
• Support project closeout activities and transition planning efforts
• Contribute to a collaborative team environment focused on problem-solving, accountability, and client service excellence

What We’re Looking For

• Bachelor’s degree in architecture, engineering, construction management, or a related field
• 3+ years of project management or project coordination experience within healthcare design, construction, or related environments
• Understanding of design and construction processes, project controls, and consultant coordination
• Familiarity with construction documentation, budgeting, scheduling, and contract administration
• Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
• Strong organizational, analytical, and problem-solving skills
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• High emotional intelligence and strong interpersonal skills
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office applications, including Excel, Word, Outlook, and PowerPoint
• You operate with a high level of personal integrity
• Ability to work collaboratively while also taking ownership of assigned responsibilities
• Professionalism, adaptability, positivity, and a strong client-service mindset

What Sets You Apart

This role is ideal for someone who wants to grow beyond basic project coordination and become a trusted contributor within complex healthcare environments. You are proactive, positive, organized, and energized by working closely with clients and project teams to move projects forward.
