Job Description

About CMI Construction & Role Overview At CMI Construction, we are a fast-growing residential remodeling firm in Northwest Arkansas. We have plenty of business coming through the door, but like many growing contractors, we are actively solving a core challenge: refining our processes, eliminating margin bleed, and actually making the money we should. Guided by our core values (
TRUST :
Transformational Excellence, Radical Integrity, Unifying Partnerships, Superb Passion for the Craft, and Humble Service ), we don't micromanage. We are seeking a trusted partner to help run the company—either an experienced residential remodeler looking to get off the tools or an organized designer/coordinator with strong construction literacy. You will step in as a true right-hand operator: helping make daily business decisions, editing key documents, looking up IRC codes, and owning our preconstruction pipeline to deliver bulletproof job packages to our field team.

Preconstruction & Design Coordination:
Guide clients through finish and material selections, document specifications cleanly, maintain prep schedules, and keep communication clear and professional.
Software Leadership:
Master JobTread as our central operating platform for job tracking, client communication, selection documentation, and preconstruction workflows.
Construction Handoffs:
Package thoroughly prepped, scope-locked projects and collaborate directly with the Director of Construction for seamless field execution. Qualifications & Skills Background in residential remodeling, construction management, interior design, architectural drafting, or business operations. Exceptional written communication, proofreading, document editing, and decision-making skills. Technical comfort reading plans, researching IRC building codes, and navigating job specs. Tech-savvy with the ability to quickly master management software like JobTread. Alignment with our TRUST core values: high integrity, accountability, and a team-first mindset. Bonus Capabilities (Knock Our Socks Off)

Pay, Work Setup & Benefits Pay Range:
$50,000 - $75,000 / year ($24.00 - $36.00 / hour),
DOE Flexible Hours:
Output-based schedule focused on job accomplishment rather than rigid 9-to-5 clock-punching.
Hybrid Setup:
Work from home with client interactions via Zoom or regional selection centers, and occasional NWA site visits as needed.
Incentives:
Profit-sharing bonuses tied directly to margin growth + commission potential for sales/estimating contributions.
