Position Overview

We are hiring a highly experienced Reconstruction Contractor to take full ownership of interior reconstruction projects following water/fire/smoke/mold damage mitigation.

This is a fast-paced, commission-based role for a self-sufficient professional who does not require hands-on training and can independently manage projects from estimate to final payment.

You will be responsible for client communication, estimating, production management, team oversight, material procurement, and financial performance of each job.

This role requires someone who is accessible and responsive.

5. Financial Accountability

Track project profitability

Close out all documentation in a timely manner

Compensation is commission-based and tied to net profit. If you manage well, you earn well.

6. Close-Out & Brand Representation

Conduct final walkthrough with client
Ensure client satisfaction before leaving the project
Capture high-quality before and after photos
Request and secure online reviews
Represent the company professionally at all times

Required Qualifications

Minimum 5 years experience in interior residential construction

Experience recruiting and managing crews or subcontractors
Strong estimating skills
Fluent in English
Clean driving record
Reliable personal vehicle
Ability to work independently without daily oversight

We expect:

Strong organizational skills
Ability to handle pressure

The South Jersey territory is busy and growing. We need someone who can keep up.
