A bit about us:
We're an established commercial general contractor with more than 30 years of building exceptional projects and even stronger relationships throughout Arizona and the Southwest.
Our reputation has been built on doing the right thing, treating people well, and delivering outstanding work for our clients. While we've grown significantly over the years, we've never lost the culture that got us here. We're proud to be known as a company where people genuinely enjoy coming to work, support one another, and build long-term careers.
Our leadership team believes that great companies are built by great people—not bureaucracy. We invest in our employees, encourage new ideas, and create opportunities for people to grow alongside the business.
If you're looking for a place where your expertise is valued and your contributions truly matter, we'd love to meet you.
Why join us?
As our Risk, Compliance & Contracts Manager, you'll have the unique opportunity to build, improve, and lead many of the processes that help protect our company while supporting successful project delivery.
Why this opportunity stands out:
Partner directly with the CFO and executive leadership on strategic business initiatives.
Help shape the future of a growing organization rather than stepping into a role where everything is already set.
Own enterprise-wide contract administration, compliance, insurance, and surety processes.
Join a collaborative, family-oriented culture where your voice is heard and your ideas are welcomed.
Work with experienced, high-performing teams who genuinely enjoy working together.
Enjoy long-term career growth as the company continues to expand throughout the Southwest.
Make a measurable impact on company operations, risk management, and overall business success.
This is an ideal opportunity for someone who enjoys improving processes, solving complex problems, building relationships, and influencing the direction of an organization.
Job Details
Reporting directly to the Chief Financial Officer, the Risk, Compliance & Contracts Manager provides leadership and oversight of the company's contract administration, insurance compliance, surety, and enterprise risk management programs.
This role serves as a trusted business partner to Operations, Project Management, Preconstruction, Finance, Legal Counsel, insurance brokers, and surety partners to ensure projects are delivered while effectively managing contractual and financial risk.
What You'll Do
Lead the full lifecycle of owner and subcontract agreements, including contract review, negotiations, amendments, and change documentation.
Identify contractual risks and partner with executive leadership and legal counsel to develop effective mitigation strategies.
Establish and continuously improve company-wide contract standards, workflows, and approval processes.
Oversee the company's insurance compliance program, including Certificates of Insurance, endorsements, OCIP/CCIP administration, Builder's Risk coordination, and claims management.
Manage all aspects of the company's surety program, including bid, performance, payment, and subcontract bonds.
Coordinate with brokers, carriers, underwriters, and finance to maintain strong insurance and bonding relationships.
Lead compliance initiatives including licensing, vendor prequalification, audits, and regulatory requirements.
Develop reporting dashboards and key metrics for executive leadership.
Create scalable processes, templates, training materials, and compliance tools that support continued company growth.
Mentor and lead Risk, Compliance & Contracts team members while promoting consistency and operational excellence across the organization.
What We're Looking For
We're looking for a collaborative leader who combines strong construction knowledge with sound business judgment and a passion for continuous improvement.
Qualifications include:
7+ years of experience in commercial construction contract administration, risk management, insurance compliance, or related disciplines.
Strong understanding of commercial construction contracts and delivery methods including GMP, CMAR, Design-Build, Lump Sum, and JOC.
Experience negotiating contract language and partnering with legal counsel on complex agreements.
Extensive knowledge of Certificates of Insurance, endorsements, insurance compliance programs, OCIP/CCIP, and claims administration.
Experience administering surety programs, bonding, and underwriter relationships.
Familiarity with Vista/Viewpoint, Procore, Textura, or similar construction management platforms.
Proven ability to build relationships across operations, finance, legal, and executive leadership.
Strong organizational, analytical, and communication skills with the ability to proactively identify and mitigate risk.
Leadership experience supervising or mentoring team members is preferred.
If you're looking for an opportunity to make a meaningful impact while helping shape the future of a growing company, we'd love to connect with you.
