Position Summary

Starlight Development is hiring a Senior Project Manager to lead the delivery of high-end, luxury single-family residential projects on Vancouver Island. This is a fully onsite role requiring hands-on leadership across all phases of construction.

This role is suited for an experienced builder-operator who has successfully delivered custom luxury homes in remote or logistically complex environments. Projects may include coastal builds, access-limited sites, and properties requiring self-sufficient infrastructure and precise coordination of trades, materials, and schedules.

You will be responsible for end-to-end project execution, from pre-construction through completion, ensuring alignment with design intent, budget, and timelines. This role demands ownership, strong field presence, and the ability to operate with limited oversight while maintaining exceptional standards.
