Project Executive - Commercial Construction

The title Project Executive or Operations Manager may be used interchangeably and serves the same position within the company classification. According to the particular client or project, or to the preference within the particular Business Unit, either title may be used. For simplification PEX/OM will be referred to within this document. The PEX/OM may report directly to the Business Unit Leader, or to a Vice‑President of Operations (if the Business Unit's operational structure has this position), according to the structure of the Business Unit.

This position may be accountable for a particular business market within the Business Unit. This is an onsite position.

The PEX/OM is accountable for the overall results of the project(s) beneath his/her supervision. This role is primarily a senior management position, generally overseeing multiple projects and ensuring the success of each, and is the primary leader of the project(s). The level of "hands on" management will vary according to each project's needs. The PEX/OM is responsible for the proper staffing for the projects and is very active in recruiting.

The PEX/OM should develop the strategic plan for success on the projects and ensure the proper resources to achieve such. The PEX/OM is a liaison between operations and business development, and is very active in both roles. The PEX/OM may be assigned to one very large and complex project, generally in excess of $75M, or may manage multiple projects through the delegation of individual project teams.

Both Superintendents and Project Management staff may directly report to the PEX/OM. The PEX/OM must take any and all measures to achieve success, including quality, profitability, schedule, and client satisfaction.

The PEX/OM should be capable of all duties of Senior Project Manager, and should have previously demonstrated success in that role, or an equivalent role. The PEX/OM must be capable of managing large and complex projects, must be capable of managing multiple lesser projects, and must have demonstrated ability to manage through subordinate staff.
