As a project manager at Portland, Oregon-based R&H Construction, 29-year-old Sarah Jimenez has worked on multiple project teams and now is running a new $19 million ground-up addiction treatment center in Southeast Portland.
Jimenez, who holds a construction management degree from California Polytechnic State University, began working as a project manager at R&H in 2018.
SARAH JIMENEZ
I’m a project manager. In this role, I am one of the project leads and work hand in hand with our superintendent to manage and execute the project. I prioritize relationship building with subcontractors and our client, and ensure we have product on site so our superintendent is able to put work in place.
We’re currently working on a new ground-up facility for De Paul Treatment Center, a drug and alcohol treatment center scheduled to be completed late this summer.
Just do it, and if someone ever tells you that you can’t do something, it might be time to consider working somewhere else. If you feel you are ready, and are ready, don’t limit yourself.
I know my experience would have been incredibly different if I didn’t have this team. Additionally, this is the first project where every lead is female, including me, the client representative, the architect and the interior designer. Interestingly as well, we all are named Sarah so we call ourselves “the Four Sarahs.”
