The posting

About the Company

Our client is one of the largest and most respected specialty contractors in the United States, generating approximately $3 billion in annual revenue and delivering some of the country's most complex commercial, industrial, and infrastructure construction projects. With a reputation built on innovation, operational excellence, and investing in its people, the company continues to set the standard for excellence across the construction industry.

As the organization continues to grow, leadership is making a significant investment in talent strategy to ensure its workforce remains a competitive advantage. This newly elevated leadership opportunity will play a critical role in shaping how the company attracts, develops, retains, and advances its people across the Mid-Atlantic region.

About the Position

The Director of Talent is a highly strategic leadership position responsible for developing and executing talent initiatives that align individual career growth with organizational performance. Supporting approximately 3,000 employees throughout the Mid-Atlantic region, this role will partner closely with executive leadership to optimize the company's talent strategy while strengthening leadership pipelines and workforce capabilities.

This is far more than a traditional HR leadership role. The successful candidate will help design the future of talent by creating scalable career architecture, enhancing succession planning, improving leadership development, and ensuring employees have meaningful opportunities to grow within the organization.

Working collaboratively with regional leadership, operations, human resources, and executive management, the Director of Talent will help build a high-performing organization where people development is viewed as a strategic business initiative.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and implement career architecture that creates clear growth pathways throughout the organization.
  • Develop talent optimization strategies that align workforce capabilities with long-term business objectives.
  • Partner with executive leadership to strengthen succession planning and leadership development initiatives.
  • Create programs that identify, assess, and develop high-potential employees.
  • Build scalable performance management and talent review processes.
  • Collaborate with operations leaders to align workforce planning with business growth.
  • Utilize workforce analytics and talent data to support strategic decision-making.
  • Enhance employee engagement, retention, and internal mobility initiatives.
  • Champion a culture focused on leadership development, continuous learning, and organizational effectiveness.
  • Serve as a trusted advisor to senior leadership on talent strategy and organizational design.

Requirements

  • 10+ years of progressive leadership experience in talent management, organizational development, leadership development, or human resources.
  • Experience leading enterprise talent initiatives within large, multi-location organizations.
  • Demonstrated success designing career frameworks, succession planning programs, and leadership development strategies.
  • Strong understanding of talent optimization, workforce planning, organizational effectiveness, and employee development.
  • Experience partnering directly with executive leadership on strategic people initiatives.
  • Excellent communication, facilitation, and relationship-building skills.
  • Strong analytical mindset with the ability to leverage workforce data to drive business decisions.
  • Bachelor's degree required; advanced degree in Human Resources, Organizational Development, Business Administration, Industrial Psychology, or a related field is preferred.

Benefits

  • Base salary targeted around $250,000, commensurate with experience
  • Performance-based annual bonus
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Paid vacation and holidays
  • Executive-level leadership visibility
  • Professional development and career advancement opportunities
  • Opportunity to shape talent strategy for one of the nation's largest construction organizations

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.
