Full Job Description
Description

The Agency | Coastal Virginia runs roughly 175 transactions a year across Chesapeake and Virginia Beach on a referral-first, concierge standard - and speed to market is where deals are won or lost. We're hiring a Real Estate Project Manager to own that speed.

This is a driver's seat, not a support role. The moment we take a listing, you're sourcing estimates, locking vendor quotes, and pushing contractors to commit to dates that get the home market-ready fast. When a deal goes under contract and the inspection repair request (PICRA) lands, you run the estimates, coordinate the work, handle invoicing, and collect every receipt - tracked to the dollar and the deadline. You'll attend on-site home inspections, fielding seller and buyer questions, and turning concerns into a clear path forward.

You hold our contractor and vendor bench accountable - not the other way around. We're hiring for drive and precision: someone who moves with urgency by default, tracks details obsessively, and would rather close ten loops than wait on one email. If you want autonomy and a scoreboard instead of hand-holding, this is your seat.

Responsibilities

$41

Qualifications
• Strong sense of urgency - you move fast by default and don't need to be told twice.
• Comfortable holding contractors and vendors accountable, including telling them a timeline or quote isn't good enough.
• Obsessive attention to detail: invoices are reconciled, receipts are collected, and nothing slips.
• Proven ability to juggle multiple concurrent projects and deadlines without losing track.
• Self-directed and ownership-minded - thrives with autonomy and a clear scoreboard, not hand-holding.
• Confident, direct communicator who can field seller and buyer questions on-site and stay composed.
• Organized and systems-oriented; builds and follows processes to keep volume moving cleanly.
• Real estate, construction, project management, or vendor-coordination experience preferred (not required if the drive and precision are there).
• Must live in Chesapeake, Norfolk, Virginia Beach area.
