o Visit sites regularly during construction — including bid walks, preconstruction walks, in-progress visits, punch walks, and closeouts — and lead status and coordination meetings

o Developing comprehensive capital improvement plan budgets, working with GCs and other stakeholders to create initial renovation budgets to aid in the underwriting process

o Managing the bidding process for contractors, evaluating proposals, and negotiating contracts for capital improvement projects

o Monitoring construction progress, ensuring compliance with project plans and timely execution, managing change orders, and addressing any issues that arise during construction

o Identify, mitigate, track, and address recurring construction issues

Qualifications:

o 5+ years in construction / real estate development

o Strong understanding of building systems, construction methods, and relevant building codes

o Experience preparing, negotiating, and reviewing contractor and consultant proposals, agreements, and contracts

o Experience handling multiple projects simultaneously while working on short timelines

o Ability to work both collaboratively and independently, specifically to take initiative and run with a project

o Comfortable operating in ambiguity to solve problems that have not been solved previously and establishing new processes

o Eager to work in an entrepreneurial environment and grow the company

o Highly organized with excellent written, communication, and negotiation skills

Employee Benefits:

o Equity

o Expected All-in Compensation: $90,000 - $120,000, based on experience

o Performance-based bonuses

o Comprehensive health benefits package

o Flexible work location with proximity to major airport (current team based in NYC and Boston)
