About Us:
At DBI Construction Consultants, we are construction experts who specialize in evaluating damaged structures. Our mission is simple: provide clear, independent, and accurate recommendations backed by hard evidence and deep expertise. In a world of uncertainty, we bring our clients clarity and confidence.
The salary for this position is $75k-95k depending on experience and skillset. Employees receive a competitive salary plus the opportunity for two performance/profit-based bonuses in June and December annually.
SUMMARY OF JOB PURPOSE:
The IT Project Manager plays a crucial role in ensuring the successful planning, execution, and delivery of technology initiatives across the organization while also providing daily frontline Helpdesk support. The primary purpose of this position is to manage department and company-wide IT projects from initiation through completion, ensuring they are delivered on time, within budget, and aligned with business objectives, while simultaneously handling user support tickets and contributing to the stability of DBI’s IT operations. This dual responsibility requires balancing immediate user needs with longer-term project execution, ensuring both daily service excellence and strategic progress. The IT Project Manager reports directly to the IT Director.
In addition to project oversight, the IT Project Manager contributes to the continuous improvement of IT operations and project delivery standards.

The IT Project Manager collaborates closely with IT sub-departments—Helpdesk, Networking, and Cybersecurity—to facilitate knowledge sharing and ensure the seamless integration of deliverables. As DBI’s IT Department is currently a small but growing team of two, this role is expected to be highly hands-on, adaptable, and resourceful. By promoting best practices and staying informed on emerging technologies and methodologies, they drive innovation and efficiency across the IT Department. The IT Project Manager is also expected to travel 10–20% of the time for project-related activities, training, and company needs.
