  • Develop and manage project budgets, forecasts, schedules, and reporting.
  • Lead design coordination, value engineering, entitlement, permitting, and project meetings.
  • Ensure project plans comply with lease and development requirements.
  • Coordinate across Development, Construction, Leasing, Legal, Finance, and Asset Management teams.
  • Proactively identify and mitigate project risks while keeping projects on schedule and within budget.
  • Lead construction turnover and project close-out.
  • Identify process improvements and mentor junior team members.
  • Travel as required.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
