diverse project needs* Provide real-time coaching on live projects, modeling excellence in execution while fostering team growth through demonstration, feedback, and collaborative problem-solving*

management software (MS Project, Procore, Primavera, or similar) and emerging technologies* Deep understanding of construction delivery methods, building systems, design processes, and regulatory requirements* Ability to assess talent capabilities, match resources to complex project needs, and architect staffing solutions**Core Competencies*** **Executive Presence & Client Focus:** Builds

leadership through conference presentations, publications, or industry involvement* Experience with digital transformation initiatives, BIM/VDC technologies, or advanced project analytics**What Sets This Role Apart**This position represents the intersection of strategic leadership, execution excellence, and organizational development. We need a leader who thrives in the complexity of the work itself—someone who can simultaneously direct a critical client project, coach a Project Manager through a high-stakes negotiation, and partner with our staffing team to architect the optimal solution for an emerging opportunity. You'll be the connective tissue between client success, project excellence, and team capability, demonstrating that the best leaders are those who lead from the front while building the leaders behind them.The ideal candidate views leadership not as authority but as responsibility—the responsibility to deliver extraordinary outcomes for clients, to develop extraordinary capabilities in others, and to model the standard of excellence that defines our organization.This position does not provide visa sponsorship. Candidates must be authorized to work in the United States without sponsorship.**Estimated compensation for this position:**95,000.00 – 130,000.00 USD per year*This range is an estimate and actual compensation may differ.
