Program Delivery Lead

About the Role

We're looking for a Program Delivery Lead who is organized, thorough, and collaborative — someone who takes real ownership of preconstruction and design from first sketch to final GMP. The role focuses on keeping preconstruction and design moving — aligned, on budget, and on schedule — while ensuring every stakeholder stays on the same page.

Responsibilities

• Preconstruction Planning & Coordination
  • Coordinate preconstruction schedules, budgets, and deliverables from day one
  • Engage architects, engineers, estimators, and consultants to keep project objectives aligned
  • Track timelines and milestones, and flag risks before they become problems
  • Build strong client relationships through responsiveness and follow-through
• Design Management
  • Coordinate design reviews across disciplines to keep everyone pointed at the same goals
  • Support feasibility studies, value engineering, and constructability reviews
  • Keep design-build and design-assist processes moving under the Program Manager's direction
  • Run coordination meetings and document decisions and action items
• Budget, Process & Communication
  • Support cost estimates, budget updates, and scope definition
  • Monitor design progress against target budgets and flag corrective action early
  • Coordinate GMPs and lump-sum values with design-build and design-assist subcontractors
  • Help standardize workflows, capture lessons learned, and keep documentation audit-ready

Requirements

• A bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Architecture, or a related field
• 5–10 years of experience in project management or preconstruction within commercial construction
• Experience with design-build or design-assist delivery methods
• Understanding of construction budgeting, scheduling, and process from the ground up
• Proficiency with project management tools and software
• Strong communication skills and ability to build trust with clients, subs, and internal teams
• Ability to manage multiple priorities without losing track of details
• Willingness to travel occasionally (up to 20%) and visit active job sites as needed

About Us

We build with integrity, show up with purpose, and leave every project — and every relationship — better than we found it. Our reputation is built on people who show up, lead from the front, and take real pride in what gets built. You'll work with experienced teammates on projects that shape communities, in a culture that values your judgment and the impact of your work.

Our Values

• Passionate — you care deeply about the work, the craft, and the people around you. This is more than a job to you.
• Dedicated — you show up fully every day. When things get hard—and they will—you stay engaged.
• Thorough — details matter. You don't hand something off or close it out until it's done right.
• Respectful — you treat the owner, the sub, the laborer, and everyone in between with respect. It's not situational here—it's the standard.

Benefits

• Medical, Dental & Vision
• 401(k) with company match
