Commercial Project Manager – Hospitality & Retail Construction

Vancouver, BC | Full-Time | In-Office

MatchBox Consulting Group is working with a well-established, design-driven construction group in Vancouver’s hospitality and commercial space to recruit a Commercial Project Manager. This is an outstanding opportunity for someone who wants to build beautiful projects, work with iconic local and national brands, and be part of a company that genuinely cares about culture, people, and community impact.

If you thrive in fast-paced environments, love restaurant and retail projects, and want to work somewhere that still feels entrepreneurial and human, this one’s worth a look.


Why This Role Stands Out

This is not a buttoned-up, corporate GC role.

This is a place where:

  • Culture actually matters

  • Teams move fast and take pride in what they build

  • Projects are highly visible and shape neighbourhoods

  • People are trusted to own their work and grow

The company is re-energized, growing, and intentionally re-imagining how it operates — with a strong focus on design, craftsmanship, and collaboration.


The Work

You’ll manage multiple commercial construction projects across the Lower Mainland, with a focus on:

  • Restaurant tenant improvements and new builds (core business)

  • Retail and experiential commercial spaces

  • Fast-track schedules with high design expectations

  • 6–7 active projects at any given time

These are projects people actually recognize — spaces that become part of the fabric of the city.


Who This Is For

Ideal Background

  • Project Management experience in a general contracting environment

  • Restaurant / hospitality construction experience is required for senior candidates

  • Retail TI or ICI experience is acceptable, especially for more junior candidates

  • Comfortable running multiple projects in parallel

  • Strong communicator who enjoys working directly with clients, consultants, and trades

Mindset Fit (This Matters)

  • Energetic, and entrepreneurial

  • Independent, accountable, and solutions-oriented

  • Enjoys being part of a “work hard, play hard” team

  • Takes pride in building great spaces with great people


What You’ll Do

  • Lead projects from start to finish: planning, execution, close-out

  • Coordinate site teams, subcontractors, consultants, and suppliers

  • Manage schedules, budgets, and change orders

  • Ensure quality, safety, and client experience are never compromised

  • Represent the company professionally with clients and partners

  • Contribute positively to team culture and project momentum


Compensation & Perks

 

  • Performance-based bonus

  • Company vehicle included

  • Cell phone & laptop provided

  • 3 weeks vacation + 5 sick days

  • Extended health, dental, and vision benefits

  • All projects located in the Lower Mainland

  • In-office, highly collaborative environment


Culture Snapshot

  • Deep roots in Vancouver’s hospitality scene

  • Team of ~45 people — tight-knit, energetic, and proud of their work

  • Strong emphasis on design, relationships, and community impact

  • Opportunity to work with very cool brands and creative partners

  • A place where you can genuinely feel part of something being built


Timing

  • Actively interviewing

  • Target start: mid-February

  • Strong candidates may move quickly
