Owner's Representative

At Flaherty & Collins, we take pride in delivering high-quality multifamily and mixed-use communities — and our Owner’s Representatives play a critical role in making that happen. This role sits at the intersection of development, construction, and stakeholder management, ensuring projects are delivered with accountability, transparency, and excellence from concept through turnover.

If you’re someone who sees the big picture and sweats the details, thrives in collaboration, and enjoys being the owner’s trusted voice throughout the construction process, this could be a great next step for you.

Why This Role is Right for You:

You’re a natural coordinator and problem-solver. You know how to balance budgets, schedules, and relationships — and you’re comfortable holding partners accountable while maintaining strong, professional collaboration. You enjoy being deeply involved in projects and take pride in representing ownership interests with integrity and confidence.

What You'll Do:

• Serve as the owner’s primary representative throughout the design, construction, and turnover phases.

• Coordinate and administer third-party Construction Manager contracts, ensuring adherence to scope, schedule, and budget.

• Lead RFQ/RFP processes for Construction Manager selection, including evaluations and recommendations.

• Review and manage Construction Manager contracts in coordination with legal, development, and internal stakeholders.

• Oversee project budgets, GMPs, change orders, allowances, and owner-related expenses.

• Monitor project schedules, milestones, and critical path activities in partnership with the Construction Manager.

• Participate in design meetings and perform detailed reviews of design documents at each phase.

• Conduct constructability reviews and support value engineering efforts.

• Serve as the primary communication link between consultants, contractors, and Flaherty & Collins teams.

• Attend project meetings, perform site visits, and review pay applications for accuracy and progress alignment.

• Coordinate permitting support with authorities having jurisdiction as needed.

• Manage turnover activities including punch lists, utilities, FF&E, O&M manuals, and closeout documentation.

• Support certification and incentive documentation such as utility rebates and LEED or similar programs.

• Provide regular project updates, reporting, and status communication to internal leadership.

What Makes You a Great Fit:

• Bachelor’s degree in Architecture, Construction Management, Engineering, or a related field.

• 5 years of experience in construction, with multifamily or mixed-use projects strongly preferred.

• Strong understanding of construction contracts, budgets, schedules, and delivery methods.

• Proven ability to manage consultants, contractors, and multiple stakeholders effectively.

• Excellent communication, negotiation, and organizational skills.

• Comfortable using construction and document management software and technology tools.

• A proactive mindset with the confidence to lead and the humility to collaborate.

• Alignment with our values: diligence, integrity, teamwork, and a winning mindset.
