Director of Construction (February 2026)

$165k - $225k
Full-time

Curo Pet Care

Curo Pet Care (“Curo”) is a rapidly scaling, privately owned veterinary hospital platform headquartered in San Francisco. We are a team of entrepreneurs and doctors deploying our own capital to elevate the veterinary industry through operational excellence and best-in-class hospital facilities.

Curo is currently a family of 75+ highly profitable hospitals across the United States. We have completed over 30 ground-up de novo veterinary hospital developments in recent years and maintain an active national pipeline of new builds and large-scale renovations.

Our facilities strategy is a core competitive advantage. We design and construct modern, highly functional veterinary hospitals (typically 3,000–5,000 square feet) in premier neighborhoods and growth markets nationwide.

We are seeking an experienced, high-accountability leader to own and scale our construction and real estate development function.

Role overview:

The Director of Construction will lead all aspects of design, development, construction, and major capital improvements across Curo’s national portfolio. This is a hands-on leadership role responsible for delivering projects on time, on budget, and to a consistent, high-quality standard while continuously refining Curo’s facility development playbook. You will oversee multiple concurrent ground-up and renovation projects, manage external partners, and serve as the internal authority on capital project execution. You will report to executive leadership and operate as a key strategic partner in Curo’s growth.

As our Director of Construction, you will:

Portfolio & Execution Leadership

  • Lead all construction projects from feasibility and planning through close-out and turnover
  • Own the master construction timeline across all de novo and renovation projects
  • Deliver projects on schedule and within approved budgets
  • Maintain strict cost discipline and change order control
  • Develop and manage project-level and portfolio-level financial reporting

Design & Development Oversight

  • Manage relationships with architects, engineers, designers, and consultants
  • Lead bidding processes, contractor selection, and contract negotiations
  • Develop and continuously refine Curo’s hospital design standards and facility playbook
  • Ensure brand consistency, operational efficiency, and scalability in all builds

Financial & Risk Accountability

  • Hold full responsibility for project financial performance
  • Anticipate, mitigate, and manage construction and entitlement risks
  • Ensure all budget deviations are pre-approved and documented
  • Provide clear executive-level reporting on cost, risk, and schedule

Regulatory & Compliance Management

  • Obtain and oversee permits, approvals, and inspections
  • Ensure compliance with local, state, and federal building codes
  • Maintain OSHA safety compliance and enforce site safety standards
  • Ensure adherence to healthcare-related facility requirements where applicable

Stakeholder & Team Leadership

  • Serve as the primary face of Curo during project meetings with doctors, partners, and vendors
  • Develop and maintain strong subcontractor and vendor relationships nationally
  • Coordinate internal stakeholders to remove bottlenecks and maintain timelines
  • Mentor and develop internal team members within the construction function

Desired Qualifications and Experience:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Architecture, or related field preferred
  • 10+ years of progressive experience in real estate development or construction project management
  • Proven experience leading multiple concurrent ground-up commercial projects
  • Strong expertise in budgeting, scheduling, contract negotiation, and risk management
  • Demonstrated success delivering projects within tight cost and schedule constraints
  • Experience managing national vendor networks preferred
  • Healthcare, veterinary, or medical office construction experience is a plus
  • Proficiency with project management software (e.g., Smaretsheet, Procore), and familiarity with design tools (AutoCAD, Revit, SketchUp)
  • Strong communication skills with ability to operate at executive and field levels
  • Willingness to travel up to 25%
  • Experience working in the veterinary or healthcare industry is a plus

In order to attract the right leader to join our team, we are offering the following benefits:

  • Highly competitive salary and bonus ($165k to $225k+ based on experience)
  • Health insurance
  • 401(k)
  • Personal pet care discount
  • Vacation and paid holidays
