MCL Arena Mentality

At MCL, we step into the arena together. Our core values guide how we show up every day, from how we lead and work together to how we serve our clients and communities.

The Arena Mentality means putting those values into action: taking ownership, tackling challenges, supporting your team, speaking up, and bringing solutions to the table. As MCL grows, every employee has the opportunity to make an impact, influence our projects, and help shape what comes next.

You’re not just filling a role. You’re part of the team building what’s next. Lead the Biggest Work. Build the Next Generation.

What You Bring to the Arena

  • Lead MCL’s largest and most complex commercial projects from preconstruction and buyout through closeout.
  • Own full accountability for project financial performance across a portfolio, including budgets, forecasting, buyout, contracts, change management, and cost control.
  • Build and manage master schedules across multiple concurrent projects, proactively identifying risks that could impact performance, budget, or client relationships.
  • Partner with Superintendents across multiple job sites to keep field and project operations aligned at scale.
  • Lead OAC meetings and serve as MCL’s senior-most trusted partner to owners, architects, engineers, and trade partners on its highest-profile work.
  • Drive value management, QA/QC, risk management, and closeout across a portfolio — setting the standard other PMs follow.
  • Mentor and develop Project Managers, Project Engineers, and Assistant Project Managers, building the next generation of MCL leaders.
  • Represent MCL in pursuits, client relationship building, and business development beyond your active projects.

The Skills Behind the Build

  • 12 years of commercial construction experience, including 5 years as a Project Manager with a general contractor.
  • Proven track record independently leading $50M commercial projects, including experience managing multiple concurrent projects or a portfolio.
  • Demonstrated ability to mentor and develop other Project Managers and Project Engineers.
  • Experience leading healthcare, mission critical/data center, federal, or other technically complex commercial projects is highly valued.
  • Comfortable representing MCL in pursuits, client relationship management, and business development.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent construction experience.

Build What’s Next

You’ve built the résumé that earns you a seat at the table. We want to give you the table itself — MCL’s largest projects, and a direct hand in developing the PMs who’ll deliver them next.

MCL is growing, and so is the scope of this seat. You’ll lead the most demanding work in the portfolio, shape how other PMs are developed, and help set the standard for how MCL delivers at scale.

Take on a portfolio, not just a project. Build the leaders who come after you. Help shape what MCL becomes next.

More scale. More influence. More room to grow.

Since 1987, MCL has built its reputation on quality work, lasting relationships, and people who take pride in doing things the right way.
