Turnstone Custom Homes
Project Manager (Custom Residential Construction)
Full-Time | $90,000-$110,000 Base + Project Bonuses + Benefits
About Turnstone Custom Homes
Turnstone Custom Homes is a design-build firm operating in coastal Sussex County, Delaware. We build and renovate high-end custom residences for clients who come primarily from the DC, Baltimore, Philadelphia, and New York/New Jersey markets.
Our custom renovations typically range from $300,000 to $1,000,000, and our new home builds range from $1,000,000 to $3,000,000.
We are looking for an experienced custom residential Project Manager who is ready to step into a well-defined process and execute at a high level. If you take pride in delivering complex projects on time, on budget, and with a high level of client satisfaction, this is worth reading.
About the Role
Our Project Managers own their:
- Client relationships
- Subcontractor relationships
- Project schedules
- Project budgets
- Overall project execution
You will work within a proven process that we have built and refined over two decades. You will have the systems, support, and team in place to execute successfully - but the results are ultimately yours to own.
New Project Managers start with one project during their onboarding period. As you learn our systems and demonstrate your capabilities, your portfolio grows. Our most experienced Project Manager currently runs four concurrent projects with his superintendent team.
What Success Looks Like
This role requires strong critical thinking, sound judgment, and the ability to manage complex custom home projects with minimal oversight.
You will work directly with senior leadership, including the COO, and must be able to:
- Communicate professionally and consistently
- Prioritize effectively
- Make informed decisions in a fast-paced environment
- Manage high-expectation clients with confidence
- Keep projects moving without constant direction
- Bring solutions forward, not just problems
Successful candidates are proactive problem-solvers who take ownership of their projects. Rather than simply escalating issues, you are expected to identify solutions, evaluate options, and bring thoughtful recommendations forward.
Compensation
Base salary: $90,000-$110,000, depending on experience
Project bonuses are paid quarterly and are available on top of base compensation.
The bonus pool on each project is up to 0.5% of the final contract price. On a $1,000,000 project, that represents up to $5,000 in potential bonus for that job alone.
Bonus payouts are based on a project scoring system that includes:
- Schedule
- Budget
- Quality
- Client satisfaction
You decide how much of your bonus to share with your superintendent(s). A Project Manager carrying a full project load at strong performance can earn meaningful additional income beyond base salary.
Benefits
We offer a strong benefits package, including:
- SIMPLE IRA with dollar-for-dollar match up to 3% of compensation
- Health insurance through Highmark Blue Shield
- Three health plan options available
- Company-paid 65% of the employee health insurance premium
- Dental, vision, and family coverage available on a pre-tax basis at your expense
- Paid time off based on your full-time work history with any employer, not just your tenure with us
- Employees with 3 or more years of total full-time experience start at two weeks of PTO
- Employees with 10 or more years of total full-time experience start at three weeks of PTO
- 40 hours of sick/personal time
- Participation in Delaware Family and Medical Leave, including both family leave and the adapted medical leave portion
What We're Looking For
The ideal candidate will have:
- 7+ years managing custom residential construction projects
- Experience with high-end custom homes, custom renovations, or both
- Ability to read and interpret drawings
- Strong subcontractor management skills
- Confidence managing clients with high expectations
- Ability to manage projects without hand-holding
- Strong communication and follow-through
- Familiarity with JobTread or a comparable platform is a plus
Delaware beach market knowledge is helpful, but not required. We can teach that.
Why Coastal Delaware
Sussex County is one of the strongest custom home markets on the East Coast. The work is interesting, the clients are serious, and the area attracts construction professionals who want a different quality of life than commuting into a major metro every day.

Mid Level Residential Project Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a mid level residential project manager job?
Position yourself by leading with concrete project outcomes: square footage delivered, timelines you held, and budgets you managed. Tailor your resume to show ownership, not just participation. Highlight subcontractor coordination, permitting experience, and any work you did independently. Employers at this level want to see that you can carry a project from preconstruction through closeout without constant direction.
Which companies hire mid level residential project managers?
Companies hiring mid level residential project managers right now include Jobot, Excel Custom Decks, and Schoenherr Roofing, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. At this experience level, hiring comes from regional and national homebuilders, general contractors specializing in residential construction, and real estate development firms managing active pipeline in suburban and urban markets.
Are there remote mid level residential project manager jobs?
Yes, though most roles remain site-dependent by nature. About 33% of mid level residential project manager openings are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, and those positions typically involve coordination, scheduling, or owner-representative roles rather than hands-on field management. If remote flexibility matters to you, search specifically for owner's rep or development management titles alongside the standard project manager listing.
How do I move up to a mid level residential project manager role?
Moving into a mid level role takes deliberate effort over your first few years. Focus on taking full ownership of smaller projects rather than supporting on larger ones, build fluency in scheduling software and budget tracking, and develop working relationships with subcontractors and inspectors. Demonstrating that you can resolve field problems independently and hit milestones without escalation is what signals readiness to hiring managers.
Which industries hire the most mid level residential project managers?
Mid Level residential project manager roles concentrate in Manufacturing and Staffing & Recruiting, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors drive consistent hiring at the mid level because active construction pipelines require experienced project managers who can carry multiple homes or phases simultaneously without close supervision.
