• Walk roofs, balconies, garages, and concrete pours with authority.
• Document everything. Miss nothing. Communicate clearly upward and outward.
• Drive projects from pre-RFP through GC selection through closeout — on time, every time.
• Be the person clients call when something feels off. And the one who already knew.
⸻
THE OPERATOR
• 5+ years in construction or supervision (preferably commercial).
• You've managed GCs, read drawings, caught problems before they became change orders.
• You're verbally strong — you can brief a board and talk to a foreman in the same afternoon.
• You easily balance desk and field action; close loops without prompting.
• You’re a clear over-communicator with high standards; you push pace and substance over politics.
• No PE required. Reliability and field ethics required. Low ego. No drama.
⸻
THE CULTURE
Direct access to leadership. Unambiguous expectations, no corporate theater.
Performance is visible here — micromanagement isn't necessary. Results speak.
We're not a retirement lap and we're not a churn-and-burn shop.
We're not perfect, but we're building something permanent. And we're selective about who builds it with us.
⸻
