Executive Advanced Excel Jobs in Alabama (NOW HIRING)

#jobalert | DIRECT HIRE | SENIOR PROGRAM MANAGER | BIRMINGHAM, AL

A Southeast-based construction and manufacturing company is hiring a Senior Manager, Program to own full P&L and C-suite client relationships across one or more complex building programs. The company builds structures inside a large manufacturing facility and assembles them on site — delivering finished buildings in a fraction of traditional construction timelines — and is actively expanding into data centers, healthcare, and other mission-critical markets. This is not a project-oversight role; it's a program-ownership role with full accountability for financial outcomes, team structure, and client relationships. If you have 10+ years of complex project leadership at a respected AEC/EPC firm, a track record of running programs at scale, and you're energized by learning something genuinely new rather than doing the same thing you've always done, this is worth a conversation.

• Anticipated $170,000–$220,000, based on experience
• Full benefits package: health, dental, and vision insurance; 401(k); flexible spending accounts (FSA); PTO; short- and long-term disability; and life insurance
• Support for professional licenses and certifications (PMP, ASHE CHC, LEED AP, and others)
• Birmingham, AL — onsite at HQ at least 3 days/week (Atlanta or Nashville may be considered); up to 25% travel to active program sites

• Contribute to strategic pipeline decisions — input on which programs and clients the company pursues based on capacity, margin potential, and strategic fit
• Take direct control of programs in serious jeopardy — financial, schedule, or client-relationship crises — and drive them back to stable operation
• Establish program-wide standards for schedule, financial reporting, procurement, and stakeholder communication
• Present and defend Business Case Reviews to executive leadership
• Lead, mentor, and develop a team of Program Managers and Project Managers; accountable for their performance, retention, and growth
