ROLE OVERVIEW

Cloud Collective is seeking an experienced Senior Project Manager to lead on-site construction delivery for a hospitality development in Khao Yai. For the initial 8-month site-based phase, the role will operate primarily in a Construction Manager capacity, overseeing day-to-day site operations, contractor coordination, and quality/schedule control, before transitioning toward broader project management responsibilities on other Cloud Collective Projects.

This is a hands-on, site-based position requiring daily presence at the project location, close coordination with contractors and consultants, and regular reporting to the Bangkok-based Cloud Collective team.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Oversee daily site operations, ensuring construction progresses according to approved drawings, specifications, and value-engineered design intent

  • Coordinate and supervise main contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers on site

  • Monitor construction quality, workmanship, and compliance with design documentation and Thai building standards

  • Track project schedule against baseline programme; flag and escalate delays or risks proactively

  • Manage site-level RFIs, submittals, and design clarifications, liaising with the design team as needed

  • Conduct regular site inspections and maintain accurate progress records, photos, and reports

  • Coordinate material and equipment deliveries, site logistics, and safety compliance

  • Liaise with local authorities and government offices as required for permits and inspections

  • Act as the primary on-site point of contact between the client, contractors, and Cloud Collective's project team

  • Prepare and present regular progress reports (written and verbal) to management and client stakeholders

  • Support cost tracking and variation order review at site level

  • Escalate and help resolve site issues, disputes, or non-conformances swiftly

REQUIREMENTS

  • Minimum 8–10 years' experience in construction project/site management, ideally within hospitality, resort, or high-end residential developments

  • Proven experience managing contractors directly on active construction sites

  • Strong understanding of Thai construction practices, permitting processes, and local labor coordination

  • Fluent in both English and Thai — written and spoken — is essential, as the role requires seamless communication with international design teams and local contractors/authorities

  • Solid working knowledge of construction drawings, specifications, and MEP/architectural coordination

  • Experience with project scheduling tools (MS Project, or similar) and site reporting

  • Strong leadership, negotiation, and problem-solving skills

  • Willingness and ability to be based full-time on site in Khao Yai for the duration of the assignment

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

  • Degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, Architecture, or related field

  • Prior experience on luxury boutique hotel, resort, or retreat-style hospitality projects

  • Familiarity with design and build contracts progressed under a GMP style contract

WHAT WE OFFER

  • Opportunity to lead delivery of a distinctive hospitality project from construction through completion

  • Role expansion beyond the initial 8-month term based on project needs and performance
