  • Have a degree or comparable experience in a cost management or construction discipline
  • Love a dynamic environment with the opportunity to manage your own priorities and deadlines
  • Are happy to travel for short periods to meet with your clients, partners and team
  • Thrive on building strong relationships with your team and clients through a shared purpose and sense of openness and fun

Work Environment:

  • This role will primarily be a hybrid schedule of onsite/remote to project sites in either Dallas, TX or Phoenix, AZ.

The salary range for this role is $84,000.00- $112,000.00 USD but actual salary offered is dependent on experience, education and skillset.

All interviews are conducted either in person or virtually with video required.
