  • Proven ability to manage multiple priorities, meet tight deadlines, and lead project teams in fast-paced, field-driven environments

  • Strong leadership skills with the ability to motivate, mentor, and collaborate effectively with superintendents, forepersons, and crews

  • Excellent communication skills, with confidence engaging clients, consultants, subcontractors, suppliers, and internal stakeholders through verbal, written, and electronic means
