  • Optimize systems for efficiency, productivity, and growth.
  • Manage insurance programs and ensure regulatory compliance.
  • Collaborate with IT vendors to maintain secure, high-performing digital infrastructure.
  • Represent the company at industry events to strengthen visibility and partnerships.

What We’re Looking For

  • Education: Bachelor’s in Business Administration or related field (Master’s preferred).
  • Experience: 10–15 years in senior administrative or operational leadership, ideally in construction.
  • Proven success in strategic planning, organizational development, and system optimization.
  • Strong financial acumen, risk management expertise, and leadership skills.
  • Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Office and financial systems.

What’s in It for You

  • Competitive base salary + bonus + profit-sharing
  • Comprehensive health benefits (Medical, Dental, Vision)
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Life Insurance
  • Generous PTO & Paid Holidays
