Project Manager

PROJECT MANAGER
Hospitality — Renovations & Conversions | Puerto Rico

Reports To: SVP of Development
Compensation: Competitive base, plus benefits
Location: On-site in Puerto Rico (local strongly preferred; relocation discussable for the right candidate)

About the Company
A fast-growing, owner-operator hospitality investment and management company with a portfolio of full-service hotels and resorts across Puerto Rico and an expanding U.S. mainland footprint. Ambitious growth trajectory with significant runway for high performers.

The Role
Reporting to the SVP of Development, the Project Manager will lead the planning and execution of hotel and resort renovation and conversion projects — from small FF&E refreshes to large-scale repositionings. You will own an active pipeline of assets at varying stages: early-phase scoping, Design Development (DD), Construction Documentation (CD), and active construction through commissioning and turnover.

Key Responsibilities
• Lead hospitality renovation and conversion projects end-to-end across the portfolio.
• Manage multiple projects simultaneously at varying stages (scoping, DD, CD, bid/award, construction).
• Coordinate architects, interior designers, brand reps, GCs, subcontractors, and FF&E/OS&E vendors.
• Build and manage project budgets, schedules, cash flow forecasts, change orders, and risk mitigation.
• Review design documents for constructability, brand compliance, cost, and operational impact.
• Partner with on-property operations to minimize guest disruption and protect revenue during active renovations.
• Provide clear, timely reporting on status, budget, schedule, and risks to the SVP and ownership.

Qualifications
• Minimum 10 years of project management experience, the majority in hospitality (hotels/resorts/branded properties).
• Proven track record managing both small-scale renovations and large-scale repositioning or conversion projects.
• Full project lifecycle experience: feasibility, design (SD/DD/CD), permitting, bidding, construction, turnover.
• Strong financial acumen — budgets, cost-to-complete forecasts, variance reporting.
• Experience with hospitality brand standards and PIPs (Marriott, Hilton, Hyatt, Wyndham, IHG, or similar).
• Proficiency in MS Project, Smartsheet, Procore (or equivalent), and Microsoft Office.
• Bilingual English/Spanish and prior Puerto Rico or Caribbean project experience preferred.
