RENOVATION MANAGER – MULTIFAMILY RENOVATIONS

Location: On the Road | Job Type: Full-Time | Pay: From $85,000/year
Company Overview:
At Smart Build, we’re not just renovating spaces, we’re redefining the standard for multifamily and commercial renovations. What began nearly 20 years ago as a small coatings company (Smart Coats) has grown into one of the region’s largest and most respected renovation service providers.
In 2018, we rebranded as Smart Build to reflect our expanded capabilities: from detailed take-offs and precise carpentry to full-scale capital projects. We’ve completed over 200+ units spanning apartment complexes, condominium associations, retail buildings, and office spaces each with a sharp focus on quality, efficiency, and client satisfaction.

But what really sets us apart isn’t just what we do, it’s how we do it:

• Growth-minded team that values ownership, continuous improvement, and results
• Lean operations that let us move fast without bureaucracy
• Customer-first mindset that drives repeat business and long-term partnerships
• National reach with strong roots in Greater Boston, allowing us to scale without losing our personal touch

We’re in an exciting phase of growth, and we’re building a team that’s ready to scale with us. If you’re someone who wants to make a real impact, be trusted to do great work, and grow your career, not just clock in, we’d love to talk.

WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS:

We’re not looking for just another Renovations Manager, we’re looking for a Rockstar who can lead, deliver, and scale with us. As we continue to expand our footprint in multifamily renovations, we need someone who thrives under pressure, communicates clearly, and can juggle multiple high-impact projects without missing a beat.
If you’re someone who takes ownership, keeps things moving, and solves problems before they surface, this is your stage.

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE IN THIS ROLE (FIRST 6–12 MONTHS):

• Successfully manage 3–5 concurrent multifamily renovation projects, including unit upgrades and capital projects
• Build strong relationships with subcontractors, vendors, and property management teams
• Deliver each project on time and within budget
• Implement and enforce OSHA-compliant safety procedures across all sites
• Optimize workflows by improving procurement, scheduling, and resource allocation
• Document all phases with detailed reporting, including before/after images and milestone tracking
• Establish a repeatable, scalable process for subcontractor evaluation and training
