Assistant Project Manager
Portland, OR
Full Time
Projects
Entry Level
For 30 years, Axiom has brought ambitious ideas to life; building architectural environments, retail experiences, art installations, and custom projects that most shops wouldn't attempt. From our 75,000-square-foot facility, we design, fabricate, and install one-of-a-kind work for clients who want the impossible made possible.
The Opportunity
We're looking for an Assistant Project Manager who understands how things are built and wants to grow into managing the people who build them.
You'll work alongside our Project Management team, helping transform concepts and drawings into organized, executable projects. You'll review plans, assist with estimating and budgeting, coordinate vendor pricing, track project changes, maintain schedules, and keep critical details from falling through the cracks.
If you're highly organized, detail-oriented, and enjoy solving the puzzle behind complex builds, you'll thrive here.
