Senior Program Manager (Healthcare Construction)

Jobot · Morton, IL · 4 wk ago
On-siteInformation Technology$100k–$130k/yrFull-time

Job Details

You'll be embedded as the client's day-to-day construction partner — their eyes, ears, and voice on the ground — while leading a full portfolio of capital projects.

  • Act as the owner's representative across planning, design, preconstruction, construction, and closeout phases
  • Lead, coordinate, and advise multidisciplinary project teams including architects, engineers, GCs, and subcontractors
  • Drive schedule, budget, and scope accountability across all assigned projects in the program
  • Manage stakeholder relationships at the executive and facilities leadership level
  • Ensure compliance with healthcare-specific construction standards (ICRA, ILSM, infection control protocols in active/occupied facilities)
  • Identify risks early and lead proactive mitigation strategies

What You Bring

  • Required: Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Architecture, Engineering, Healthcare Administration, or a related field
  • 5+ years of healthcare construction project management experience — owner's rep, facilities, or client management
  • Strong command of healthcare programming, planning, design, and construction processes
  • Understanding of inpatient and ambulatory operational environments
  • Pioneering track record in client advocacy and relationship management
  • Excellent communication, organizational, and leadership skills

Required Qualifications

  • Pioneering track record in client advocacy and relationship management
  • Excellent communication, organizational, and leadership skills

Preferred / Bonus Points

  • 10+ years of healthcare construction experience
  • Certified Healthcare Constructor (CHC) designation

Why This Role Stands Out

  • This isn't a role where you manage one project and call it done. You're running a program — multiple facilities, multiple stakeholders, meaningful scope — for a firm with deep roots in the healthcare sector.
  • The work is complex, the relationships matter, and the outcomes directly impact patient care environments.
  • The compensation is competitive and commensurate with experience.

Benefits

Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage with employer-subsidized premiums
401(k) with dollar-for-dollar employer match plus potential discretionary contributions based on tenure
HSA and FSA options with employer contributions to help offset out-of-pocket costs
Generous PTO, paid holidays, and well-being time — front-loaded, not accrued over years
100% salary replacement during extended medical leave
Substantial tuition reimbursement and professional development funding
Paid bereavement with a flexible, human definition of loss
Digital health and wellness perks at no cost to you
