Job Description

Upstream Home
Residential Remodeling Project Manager
Build More Than Spaces. Build a Legacy.
At Upstream Home, every home tells a story--and every detail matters. We're Lake Zurich's go-to remodeling team for kitchens, basements, and bathrooms, and we've built our reputation on quality, trust, and craftsmanship. If you're a hands-on leader who loves turning plans into beautiful, lasting spaces, we'd love to meet you.
The Role
We're looking for a Project Manager who can guide residential remodeling projects from start to finish--while staying close to the work itself. This is ideal for a skilled carpenter or site leader ready to manage budgets, schedules, and client relationships while still rolling up their sleeves when needed. You'll collaborate with the owner, crews, and clients to keep every project on track, on budget, and built to the highest standard. The main focus of this role will be hands-on field work and tool-based leadership, ensuring close involvement in day-to-day site operations.
What You'll Do
Plan and manage multiple remodeling projects from kickoff to completion
Coordinate crews, subcontractors, materials, and schedules
Track budgets, change orders, and project timelines
Maintain quality control and enforce safety practices
Read and interpret plans, drawings, and scopes of work
Communicate clearly with homeowners, suppliers, and team members
Step in with hands-on support when the job requires it
What You Bring
Strong residential remodeling experience (carpentry skills a plus)
5+ years in construction project management or site supervision
Proven ability to manage budgets, schedules, and client expectations
Reliable vehicle and basic tool set
Excellent leadership, problem-solving, and communication skills
Ability to work across sites within 45-50 minutes of Lake Zurich, IL
Compensation & Benefits
Full-time role with a salary of $80,000-$120,000, based on experience
Performance incentives
Growth opportunities into higher leadership roles
Supportive, values-driven team culture
Upstream Home is an Equal Opportunity Employer. We consider all applicants without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, or other protected status. Employment is at-will and may be ended by either party at any time. Reasonable accommodations are available for applicants with disabilities.
