Responsibilities :

  • Manage projects from start to finish, including crews, subcontractors, and schedules
  • Prepare budgets, estimates, and scope of work; maintain profit margins
  • Oversee daily jobsite operations, safety, and documentation
  • Review and approve subcontractor proposals and change orders
  • Collaborate with operations to ensure projects stay on schedule and budget
  • Maintain client deliverables and project records in Salesforce
  • Conduct mitigation assessments and develop project plans
  • Respond to project needs 24 / 7

Experience & Education :

  • Leadership experience in construction / restoration
  • Knowledge of construction documents and large loss projects
  • 3+ years industry experience
  • High school diploma required; bachelor's degree, preferred
