A bit about us:

An established, highly respected luxury residential builder is seeking an exceptional Director of Operations / General Manager to lead the operational side of a growing organization known for delivering some of the region's most architecturally significant custom homes.

This is far more than an operations role.

You'll become the CEO's trusted business partner, overseeing project delivery, leading construction operations, developing high-performing teams, improving systems, and helping shape the next phase of company growth.

If you're the type of leader who enjoys building organizations—not just managing them—this is a rare opportunity to make a lasting impact.

Why join us?

Key Perks Include:
  • Competitive salary
  • 3 weeks of vacation right out of the gate + paid holidays + sick time
  • Gas card & FasTrak
  • Company-issued cell phone or reimbursement
  • Computer/laptop set up for work
  • Medical — 100% paid for employee-only coverage
  • Dental & Vision — voluntary (group rate paid by employee)
  • Life Insurance — $25K ($50K AD&D), fully employer-paid
  • Voluntary Life Insurance — buy-up option for employees
  • 401(k)
  • FSA
And more!

Job Details

The Opportunity:
This executive leadership role oversees all construction operations from project kickoff through completion while ensuring exceptional client experiences, outstanding craftsmanship, and operational excellence.

You'll provide leadership across Project Management, Field Operations, Preconstruction, Scheduling, Quality, Safety, and Strategic Planning while helping create the systems and structure needed to support continued growth.

You'll work directly with ownership, influence company strategy, and play a critical role in scaling a highly respected luxury construction business.

What You'll Lead:
Construction Operations:
  • Oversee delivery of multiple luxury residential projects from contract through closeout
  • Lead Project Managers and Field Leadership teams
  • Balance schedules, manpower, subcontractors, and resources across active projects
  • Ensure projects are delivered on time, on budget, and to exceptional quality standards
  • Resolve operational challenges before they impact clients or schedules
Field Leadership:
  • Lead superintendent teams through coaching, accountability, and mentorship
  • Establish field expectations around quality, communication, and execution
  • Strengthen subcontractor partnerships and performance standards
  • Maintain a visible presence in the field and build strong relationships with project teams
Operational Excellence:
  • Improve scheduling, reporting, forecasting, and project management systems
  • Develop operational processes that support sustainable growth
  • Lead production meetings, project reviews, and operational planning sessions
  • Monitor project health, capacity planning, and company-wide resource allocation
Executive Leadership:
  • Partner closely with the CEO on strategic planning and business decisions
  • Identify operational opportunities and remove organizational bottlenecks
  • Help shape workforce planning, market growth, and long-term operational strategy
  • Provide honest, data-driven insight that supports sound decision making
Business Development & Industry Relationships:
  • Represent the company within the architecture, design, and construction community
  • Strengthen relationships with architects, consultants, and key trade partners
  • Support business development through trusted industry relationships
  • Help position the company for continued growth in existing and future markets
What We're Looking For:
  • We're searching for an operational leader who combines executive-level thinking with hands-on leadership.
You should bring:
  • 10+ years leading luxury residential construction projects
  • Experience managing both Project Management and Field Operations teams
  • Proven success building operational systems within a growing organization
  • Strong leadership, communication, and organizational skills
  • Experience improving processes while maintaining exceptional client service
  • Ability to lead through influence, accountability, and trust
  • Comfort working in an entrepreneurial environment where you'll help build the next stage of the business
  • Experience with construction management platforms such as Procore or similar software is highly valued.
The Ideal Leader:
The right person is more than an operator. They're a builder of teams, systems, and culture. They know how to earn the respect of seasoned field professionals while partnering effectively with executives, clients, architects, and consultants. They remain calm under pressure, solve problems before they grow, and create clarity in complex environments. Most importantly, they understand that luxury construction is about more than building exceptional homes—it's about delivering an exceptional experience.
