Job Description

About the Company

Founded in 2007, we have built a proud reputation as a highly reliable excavation and construction

contractor in the St. Charles, Missouri area. Supported early on by a regional incubator for minority- and

women-owned construction companies, we have established a strong operational foundation backed by

decades of industry experience. As we look to the future, we are focusing heavily on our highest growth

sectors to drive our next phase of success.

The Opportunity

We are seeking a highly driven, entrepreneurial Project Executive to lead and aggressively expand our

Concrete and Asphalt segment, the fastest growing and most dynamic part of our business.

This is not a traditional project management role; this is an entrepreneurial partnership. For the right

candidate, this position offers a direct, structured pathway to take over and own the business in the

next few years. You will have the autonomy to take our highest-performing division to the next level,

backed by the infrastructure, reputation, and resources of an established contracting firm.

Key Responsibilities

 Expand Scale: Capitalize on our current momentum to aggressively grow the Concrete and

Asphalt segment, refining operating procedures, strengthening vendor relationships, and

maximizing capacity.

 Business Development: Identify, pursue, and secure major concrete and asphalt contracts.

Leverage your existing network and forge new relationships with general contractors,

municipalities, and private developers to sustain our rapid growth.

 Operational Leadership: Oversee the entire lifecycle of a diverse portfolio of projects within the

division, from initial estimating and bidding to project execution, budget management, and final

closeout.

 P&L Management: Take full ownership of the division’s financial performance, ensuring

profitable margins, smart resource allocation, and sustainable growth.

 Team Leadership: Manage, mentor, and build out a high-performing crew of estimators, project

managers, and field operators to support increasing project demands.

 Strategic Succession: Work closely with the current ownership to understand overarching

business operations, preparing to transition into a primary ownership/equity role within a few

years.

Qualifications

 Industry Expertise: 7+ years of progressive leadership experience in the concrete, paving, and

asphalt construction industry, with a strong background in both operations and estimating.

 Project Scope: Proven track record of successfully managing and delivering a wide variety of

commercial or civil projects ranging in value from $50,000 to $1,000,000+.

 Entrepreneurial DNA: You dont just want a job; you want to run and own a business. You

possess the grit, vision, and self-motivation required to scale a high-growth division.

 Business Acumen: Strong financial literacy with experience managing PL, bidding, forecasting,

and project cost controls.

 Network: Existing relationships with contractors, suppliers, and decision-makers in the Greater

St. Louis/St. Charles region is highly preferred.

 Education: Bachelor’s degree in construction management, Civil Engineering, Business, or

equivalent hands-on field/management experience.

Why Join Us?

 Base Salary of $100k - $125k, commensurate with experience.

 Ownership Track: This is a rare succession-planning opportunity. We are looking for the future

owner of the business.

 Proven Market Demand: Step into the most successful, high-demand segment of our company

with immediate momentum and a solid pipeline of work.

 Established Infrastructure: Scale your business segment using the solid foundation,

administrative support, and respected market reputation of an established, successful contracting

firm.
