Construction Manager Resume Example
A senior construction project manager in Phoenix with fifteen years at general contractors, the last six running healthcare and school projects delivered CM at risk.
A fictional resume written by our team. The person, employers and numbers are invented; the tools, licenses and schools are real.
Why it works
- 1
“Construction project manager with 15 years in commercial building, the last 6 running healthcare and school projects up to $58M for a general contractor, most of them CM at risk with a GMP. PMP, OSHA 30 and LEED AP BD+C.”
Years, building types, project size, delivery method and credentials. A contractor reads for whether these projects look like theirs.
- 2
“Ran 7 healthcare and school projects from $12M to $58M, all CM at risk with a GMP”
Count, range, building types and delivery method, which is how a hiring manager places a project manager.
- 3
“Delivered a $58M, 4-story, 180,000 sq ft outpatient center 11 days early and $420,000 under the GMP”
Schedule and cost against the contract, on the largest job. That is the core result of the role.
- 4
“No OSHA recordables in 420,000 hours worked across 3 projects, with daily site walks and weekly foremen safety meetings”
A safety record with the hours behind it, plus the habits that produced it.
- 5
“Rebuilt a slipping schedule for a $14M grocery anchor in Primavera P6, recovering 5 weeks to open on the planned date”
A recovery story with the tool and the result. Every project slips, and this shows how one got back on track.
How it scored
We ran this example through the same free roast you can use, three times, and kept the middle result. The roast ranks a resume against a typical applicant pile and grades hard: even a resume with a number in nearly every bullet usually lands in the B range.
Copy the text
Use it as a skeleton, then replace every line with your own work. A copied bullet with someone else's numbers is the fastest way to fail an interview question.
