About the Company
Our client is an established contractor delivering major public and private infrastructure projects across the San Francisco Bay Area and Northern California.

To support continued growth, they're hiring a Project Director to lead a portfolio of major projects and play a key role in winning new work.
The Role
This is a senior leadership role with two equal priorities.

- Make sure projects meet agency requirements, including prevailing wage, DBE/SBE and environmental compliance
- Represent the company at senior level with owners, agencies, designers and partners
- Build a strong safety culture across all projects
- Find, qualify and pursue new opportunities with public agencies and private clients
- Build and maintain long-term relationships with owners, agencies, engineers and teaming partners
- Lead pursuits from go/no-go through proposal, interview and award
- Help shape strategy and win themes for hard-bid, design-build, CM/GC and progressive design-build work
- Work with estimating on pricing strategy, risk review and bid approval
- Form joint ventures and teaming arrangements on large or complex pursuits
- Represent the company at industry events and associations (for example AGC, ASCE and DBIA)
Requirements
- 15+ years of experience in heavy civil or infrastructure construction, including significant time in senior project leadership (Senior PM, Project Director or Operations Manager)
- Proven success delivering large, complex public works projects
- Demonstrated business development results, including pursuits won and client relationships built
- Strong financial acumen, with experience managing multi-project P&L
- Experience with alternative delivery methods (design-build, CM/GC, progressive DB)
- Bachelor’s degree in Civil Engineering, Construction Management or a related field
- Excellent leadership, communication, negotiation and presentation skills
Preferred (not essential)
- Established relationships with Bay Area agencies such as Caltrans, BART, SFPUC, SFMTA, Valley Water, EBMUD or VTA
- Experience on transit, bridges, water and wastewater treatment, or major pipeline programs
- Joint venture experience on projects valued at $100M+
- PE license, DBIA certification or PMP
What's on Offer
- Highly competitive base salary plus performance and BD-linked bonus
- Medical, dental and vision insurance
- 401(k) with company match
- Paid time off and holidays
- Vehicle or car allowance, phone and laptop
- A senior role with real influence over the company's growth and strategy
- A strong backlog and pipeline of long-term infrastructure work
