What are the responsibilities and job description for the Director of Preconstruction position at Lebolo Construction Management, Inc?
-- YOU KNOW YOU WERE MEANT FOR MORE. COME FIND IT HERE. --
1. THE ROLE: WHAT YOU'LL ACTUALLY DO HERE.
You’ll lead our preconstruction effort from first pursuit to signed contract - owning estimating, conceptual budgeting, scope development, and client relationships throughout the sales process. You won’t be executing someone else’s strategy - you’ll be building ours.
- Drive the full preconstruction process across GC, design-build, and CM-at-Risk delivery methods
- Lead and develop a team of estimators - mentoring the next generation of preconstruction talent
- Serve as the primary client-facing leader through the pursuit and preconstruction phases
- Collaborate with operations, design partners, and subcontractors to produce winning, buildable estimates
- Shape our “go/no-go” strategy and invest our time where it wins
- Leverage industry terminology and project specific knowledge to demonstrate credibility and command the room
- Represent the company at industry events, with owners, and in the community
2. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR: THE RIGHT EXPERIENCE, IN THE RIGHT HANDS.
This role requires someone who has genuinely done the work - someone who can read a set of drawings, challenge a subcontractor’s number, and still make a client feel like the most important person in the room.
- 15 years in commercial and public construction with meaningful preconstruction or estimating leadership experience
- Deep familiarity with conceptual estimating, value engineering, and constructability review
- Proven track record of winning projects - not just pricing them
- Degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, or equivalent field experience
- Strong written and verbal communication - you can present a budget and tell the story behind it
- A reputation in the local subcontractor and design community that opens doors
3. YOUR FUTURE HERE: WHAT YOUR LIFE LOOKS LIKE WHEN YOU SAY YES.
This is a seat at the leadership table - not a title on a business card. Your decisions will shape which markets we pursue, which clients we build relationships with, and how this company grows over the next decade.
You’ll have the autonomy to lead, the resources to win, and a team that will make you proud. You’ll stop wondering if your best work is still ahead of you - because it will be happening right here.
- Competitive Executive compensation
- Full benefits: medical, dental, vision, 401(k) with match
- A culture that measures results, not hours - and trusts you to know the difference
- The chance to put your name on projects that will stand for generations
