  • 10+ years of relevant construction management experience.
  • 5+ years of project management experience in multifamily or senior living construction.
  • Strong knowledge of building systems (MEP, envelope, fire/life safety, accessibility, etc.).
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Project, Excel, Word, and Adobe/Bluebeam.
  • Proficiency in managing construction budgets of more than $10 million.
  • Excellent communication, problem-solving, and organizational skills.
  • Ability to manage multiple projects across regions and travel as required.

Preferred Experience
  • Familiarity with affordable housing, HUD/state compliance, or senior living projects.
  • Professional certifications (CCM, PMP, LEED AP) a plus.
