Project Executive

Project Executive St. Louis Park,MN, US 6884715 9 days ago Job Description Experience: Director Salary: $190,000 - $240,000 per year Job Details --------- This is a senior leadership seat with direct people authority. The entire project management team reports to you — currently one Senior Project Manager, three Project Managers, three Assistant Project Managers, and one Project Engineer. You'll report to the Director of Operations. You’ll own a portfolio of projects from concept through closeout and serve as the primary relationship with owners, developers, and design partners. You'll partner closely with pre-construction on bidding, estimating, scheduling, and contract review. And you’ll own the number: budgets, cost control, and profitability across your portfolio. Projects run up to $40M, with the sweet spot between $5M and $20M — big enough to be interesting, small enough that you're actually in them rather than three layers above. Just as importantly: you’ll build. This role includes standing up systems and process and scaling the PM bench underneath you. If you want a machine handed to you, this isn't it. If you want to build the machine and be recognized for it, keep reading. What You Bring Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience) 10+ years of general contracting experience, including significant time as a Senior Project Manager or PX Ground-up multifamily delivery experience strongly preferred; rehab multifamily counts Direct management experience leading PMs and APMs — not just mentoring Strong pre-construction, estimating, scheduling, and budgeting command Comfort with ambiguity and a genuine appetite for building process where none exists A bit about us: We're a Twin Cities general contractor with more than 60 years in this market. We build multifamily — both ground-up and rehab — alongside senior housing, supportive housing, and community-focused commercial, light retail, and religious facilities. We’re small on purpose: lean enough that your fingerprints are on the outcome, established enough to have strong stability. Our values aren't wall art — care for others, straight communication, humility, and taking on hard things with enthusiasm are how we actually operate. Why join us? Real authority from day one. Eight direct reports, a portfolio P&L, and a seat at the table. Path to ownership and leadership. Multiple senior leaders are retiring over the next 18–24 months. This is runway, not a lateral. You’ll actually have impact. People come here from the big nationals specifically to stop being a line item and start moving the business. Direct access to leadership. No layers, no gatekeepers. The C‑suite is a hallway away and answers on the first ask. Small‑company family culture. People stay here 10, 13, 20 years — and the ones who leave the bigs to join us don't go back. Work/life balance we’ll defend. Senior leadership here treats it as a differentiator, not a perk page. Meaningful work. Affordable and supportive housing, historic renovation, and community projects alongside market-rate multifamily. #J-18808-Ljbffr
