The posting

Our new client, recommended by one of our long-tenured clients, is a family-owned, vertically integrated real estate owner, developer and operator focused on industrial real estate, with in-house teams across acquisitions, asset management, leasing, construction, property management, accounting and legal. It is searching for a Director of Development and Construction to lead its ground-up program toward its goal of doubling the size of its portfolio over the next five years. The role is based in Bergen County, New Jersey, with regular travel to sites across the Northeast and flights to Florida.

Reporting to the Founder and President, you'll own every project's hard-cost budget from conceptual estimate to final cost. You'll have a team that executes, including a Project Manager and a Financial Analyst, and you'll build the processes and reporting systems that allow it to execute consistently and at scale. On entitlements, your role is technical: confirming that approved plans can be built within budget.

In this role YOU will:

  • Deliver ground-up industrial (warehouse) projects from raw site through certificate of occupancy, owning the schedule.
  • Set and defend budgets, lead value engineering, and manage change orders and contingency.
  • Choose general contractor or trade-by-trade delivery, select contractors, and build a bench in new markets.
  • Oversee capital and tenant improvement work across the existing portfolio.
  • Co-lead physical due diligence and construction budgets for acquisitions.
  • Report status, budget and schedule across the pipeline to ownership.

YOU might be the right person if YOU have:

  • 10+ years in ground-up construction and development (general contractor, construction manager or owner's side).
  • Multiple ground-up industrial projects delivered at the same time, site work through certificate of occupancy.
  • Hands-on estimating experience: you've built the budgets yourself and know where every number comes from.
  • Command of industrial site work and base building systems.
  • Willingness to travel regularly, including by air.
  • Yardi preferred; Bluebeam, computer-aided design and an engineering or construction management degree a plus.

Our client offers a base salary of $300,000-$400,000, bonus eligibility, the opportunity to co-invest in the company's projects, excellent benefits including medical, dental, vision, a 401(k) and paid time off, and a family-oriented work environment.

Master Search Solutions is a direct hire recruiting firm that specializes in the New Jersey marketplace. We have over 30 years of experience connecting top talent with leading businesses. We, like our client, are committed to (and celebrate) diversity, equity, and inclusion.

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.
