VP of Construction Operations

Our client is a private equity-backed specialty and general contractor operating across Texas, Florida, Georgia, and the Carolinas with an annual revenue run rate approaching $600M. Following a recent recapitalization and a string of strategic acquisitions, the firm is seeking a VP of Construction Operations to unify project delivery standards and scale the operational infrastructure to support continued growth.

As VP of Construction Operations you will have P&L accountability for the construction division and direct leadership over a team of Senior Project Managers, Superintendents, and Field Engineers. You will implement and enforce standardized project management processes, lead monthly project reviews, resolve escalated schedule and cost issues, and partner with the Chief Estimator and Business Development team to ensure projects are won and delivered profitably.

This is a true operational leadership role for a builder who has risen through the field and office ranks and is ready to run a division. The firm offers a compelling equity participation plan and a board-level seat at the table for the right candidate.

• Track record of delivering complex projects $50M+ on time and on budget across multiple simultaneous work streams
• Strong financial acumen — comfortable with WIP schedules, project cost reports, and division P&L
• Experience managing, mentoring, and developing teams of 30+ field and office construction professionals
• PE-backed or high-growth company experience a significant advantage
