American Cabinet Factory (ACF), an MBG company, is looking for a Project Manager to lead architectural and casework projects from start to finish. ACF partners with a variety of manufacturers to offer cabinetry and countertops. You’ll sit at the center of the job, connecting clients, suppliers, installers and accounting, and you’ll be trusted to deliver on time, within budget and to the highest quality standards.

WHAT YOU WILL OWN

Project Managers own the coordination and execution rhythm of assigned projects. You’re accountable for keeping scope, documentation, schedule, and financial performance aligned - ensuring the right information is in the right hands at the right time, and that risks are identified early, communicated clearly, and actively managed through closeout.

Client partnership

• Serve as the primary point of contact.
• Build long-term trust.
• Resolve conflicts and assumptions before they put a project off track.

Scope and Documentation

• Review drawings and specifications, perform take-offs when needed.
• Compile and review submittals.
• Keep Projects, Work Orders and Change Orders current in the ERP System.

Suppliers and Installers

• Complete and maintain supplier purchase orders.
• Keep supplier scope moving on schedule.
• Manage installation subcontractors to specification and quality standards.

Schedule, Budget and Change

• Manage timelines, budgets and milestones.
• Oversee change orders so every adjustment is documented and communicated.
• Work with accounting on billing and cost tracking.

Meetings and Site Presence

• Build agendas, distribute minutes after each meeting.
• Take field measurements.
• Join site visits to monitor progress.

Closeout

• Deliver the warranty and closeout documents each project requires.

HOW THIS ROLE WORKS WITH LEADERSHIP

Project Managers partner closely with ACF leadership and Accounting. Healthy candor matters: raise risks early, communicate clearly, and bring solutions, not just problems, to the table.

You’ll also collaborate with internal support teams (accounting, contracts, and others as needed) to keep commitments clear and documentation accurate. The expectation is professional, transparent communication—especially when risks emerge—so teams can act early and protect outcomes.

EXPERIENCE EXPECTATIONS

This role is a strong fit for Project Managers with at least three years of project management experience in millwork, custom wood manufacturing or a related field, with a background in architectural woodwork or casework and hands-on knowledge of design, fabrication, finishing and installation. You understand project delivery methods, construction processes and budget terms, and you read product and architectural drawings with confidence.

Problem-solving under pressure, negotiation, conflict resolution and clear written and verbal communication are critical in a high volume, fast-paced environment.

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

Immediate Impact

In the first 60–90 days, successful Project Managers establish trust through consistent follow-through and clear communication. They quickly learn the project’s scope and risk profile, set a strong documentation cadence, and keep teams aligned on what matters most.

• Understand the scope, drawings and risks of your projects and have set a steady documentation cadence.
• The ERP System is current, meetings drive decisions, and minutes go out on time.

Long-Term Impact

• Over time, Project Managers protect outcomes by anticipating issues, communicating risks accurately, and maintaining disciplined project controls.
• Projects finish on time and within budget, with change orders documented and approved promptly.
• Project financials stay healthy with accurate cost-to-complete and monthly forecasting within ±1% of final.
• Installers perform to spec, clients stay confident, and closeout documents arrive on schedule.
• Client satisfaction remains strong through proactive communication and timely issue resolution.
