Industry: Large scale concrete construction

Overview

An established concrete contractor with a multi state presence is seeking a Director of Construction to oversee operations, drive project excellence, and support continued growth across Northern California. The organization is known for executing complex structural concrete packages, operating with a strong internal infrastructure, and maintaining long term relationships with top general contractors. They are financially strong, have a deep bench of field leadership, and consistently deliver on large commercial, data center, parking structure, healthcare, and institutional projects.

Key Responsibilities

• Oversee execution of structural concrete projects ranging from mid rise to large commercial and institutional builds

• Ensure schedule performance, quality control, safety, and profitability across active projects

• Partner with estimating and preconstruction to support budget development, constructability, and project strategy

• Develop and maintain strong relationships with general contractors and owners

• Drive operational efficiencies and standardization across teams

• Support business development by influencing client retention and helping secure new opportunities
