Project Manager - Commercial Construction (Nashville, TN)

About the Company

RNGD is a rapidly scaling organization emerging as a nationally recognized leader in construction through our unique Renegade mindset focused on innovation, creativity, and culture. The team is made up of a highly engaged group of seasoned professionals and emerging leaders. We are creators who believe that what we build drives the growth of our cities and that to fulfill our mission, we must constantly challenge the old way of doing things. Headquartered in New Orleans, Louisiana, we thrive on building communities, building teams, building leaders, and growing the business throughout the Southeast region with offices in Mississippi, Tennessee, and Alabama.

About the Role

We’re not a traditional GC—and we’re not trying to be. RNGD is scaling fast across the Southeast, and we’re hiring a Project Manager in Nashville to lead ground-up and complex commercial projects with real ownership, real influence, and a team that actually collaborates. If you’re a PM who’s tired of red tape, slow decision-making, or being treated like a task manager instead of a leader, this is a different kind of opportunity.

What You’ll Own

You’ll lead projects end-to-end—from preconstruction through closeout—with full responsibility for:

• Project execution: schedule, budget, quality, and safety
• Planning & buyout: subcontractor selection, procurement, and contracts
• Financial performance: cost tracking, forecasting, change orders
• Client relationships: acting as the primary point of contact
• Team leadership: partnering with field teams and mentoring emerging talent

This isn’t a back-office PM role. You’ll be in the field, solving problems, driving outcomes, and making decisions that matter.

What Makes RNGD Different

• Real ownership: You’re trusted to lead, not micromanaged
• Speed + agility: We move faster than traditional firms
• People-first culture: High standards, low ego, strong accountability
• Growth trajectory: Expanding across the Southeast with real opportunity to advance

We believe how we build matters just as much as what we build.

What You Bring

• 5+ years of experience in commercial or industrial construction
• Proven ability to lead projects and coordinate cross-functional teams
• Strong understanding of scheduling, budgeting, and contract management
• Confidence navigating challenges, solving problems, and making decisions
• Ability to build trust with clients, subs, and internal teams (PMP or other certifications are a plus, not a requirement)

Additional Details

• Based in Nashville, TN
• Regional travel as needed to project sites
• Project types: Commercial/Industrial (varied portfolio)
• 
  Compensation: Competitive base + performance bonus (discussed transparently)
