Position Overview The Senior Quality Assurance Manager – Campus Quality Program serves as the embedded quality program leader for a long-term, campus-wide healthcare construction program in northwest Arkansas. This is not a traditional individual contributor role. The person in this position functions as a quality program manager for a complex, multi-phase project environment spanning multiple building types and extended timelines—requiring the ability to architect systems, lead teams (formal and informal), and operate with equal fluency at the strategic and field level.

This role sits within Flintco's Construction Support Services (CSS) department within the Quality functional area, which provides centralized technical expertise to the company. The Sr. QA Manager will coordinate closely with CSS functional area leads, project Operations teams, and trade partners to ensure consistent quality program execution from preconstruction through closeout across a campus, that aligns with Flintco's overall quality program and approach.

There is a strong likelihood this role will carry direct report responsibility as the campus program scales. Candidates should be equally comfortable building systems and developing people as they are conducting field inspections and driving trade partner accountability.
