A day in the life
The Senior Construction Manager must have experience working for an Owner, Developer, or General Contractor across all project phases. Candidates with Architecture or Engineering backgrounds are welcome if they have preconstruction and construction experience, including MEP and fire suppression systems.
The ideal candidate has managed tenant improvement projects through due diligence, preconstruction estimating, scheduling, bidding, and closeout (substantial and final completion). Tenant improvement experience is preferred.
The candidate must independently manage broad scope (especially MEP and Health Department requirements), whether building multiple QC sites or launching new initiatives. They should take ownership of their work, execute autonomously, and serve as the subject matter expert while earning trust with internal and external stakeholders at all levels.
