A bit about us:

A well-established healthcare construction consulting firm is looking for a Preconstruction Manager to lead all preconstruction activities across multiple large-scale commercial construction projects. This is a role for someone who lives in the details — estimating, scheduling, value engineering, and bid management — while collaborating closely with owners, architects, and operations teams to set projects up for success before construction ever begins.

If you're sharp with numbers, fluent in design documents, and thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative environment, this one's worth your attention.

Why join us?
  • Competitive compensation
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage with employer-subsidized premiums
  • 401(k) with dollar-for-dollar employer match plus potential discretionary contributions based on tenure
  • HSA and FSA options with employer contributions to help offset out-of-pocket costs
  • Generous PTO, paid holidays, and well-being time — front-loaded, not accrued over years
  • 100% salary replacement during extended medical leave
  • Substantial tuition reimbursement and professional development funding
  • Paid bereavement with a flexible, human definition of loss
  • Digital health and wellness perks at no cost to you

And much more!
