Job description

Chicago | Milwaukee | Madison

We're looking for someone who can build projects, lead people, and solve problems.

This is not a traditional project management role.

You will oversee renovations and capital improvement projects across a portfolio of premier health clubs and sports facilities while partnering with club leadership to keep operations running smoothly throughout construction.

We're seeking a unique combination of skills:

• Project management
• Construction leadership
• Stakeholder communication
• Field problem solving
• Coordination of self-performing trades

Our ideal candidate may have started as a carpenter, electrician, foreman, superintendent, facilities manager, or construction manager before moving into project leadership.

You will work directly with architects, engineers, contractors, and internal construction teams while helping shape facilities that serve thousands of members every day.

If you've ever thought: "I enjoy construction, but I want more ownership, more variety, and less time chasing the next jobsite,"

we'd like to talk.

Regional travel throughout Illinois and Wisconsin. Home most nights.

Superintendent and trade-background candidates are strongly encouraged to apply.
