At Modus, people are not treated like numbers. They are trusted contributors helping shape both the work and the company.

The Opportunity

This is a strong career move for an experienced construction professional who wants more than just project oversight. It is a chance to lead meaningful commercial projects, influence jobsite performance, and grow with a company that is still building its future. You will play a visible role in delivering quality work, guiding field execution, and helping strengthen the standards and culture of the team.

What You'll Do

• Lead field operations on commercial construction projects ranging from approximately $100K to $15MM.
• Manage daily jobsite activity, coordinate schedules, and keep work moving safely, efficiently, and to plan.
• Maintain high standards for quality, site organization, safety, and overall productivity.
• Communicate clearly with clients, subcontractors, and internal project teams to keep expectations aligned and issues resolved quickly.
• Coach and support field staff while reinforcing accountability, craftsmanship, and team performance.
• Help ensure each project reflects the professionalism, precision, and integrity Modus brings to its clients and community.

What Success Looks Like

In the first 6 to 12 months, success in this role will look like:

• Running jobsites that are safe, organized, and productive from mobilization through closeout.
• Keeping project schedules on track and addressing field issues before they become costly delays.
• Building strong working relationships with clients, subcontractors, and internal team members.
• Consistently delivering work that meets Modus standards for quality, professionalism, and attention to detail.
• Contributing to a field culture where team members feel supported, expectations are clear, and performance continues to improve.

What We're Looking For

We are looking for an experienced builder with a strong background in commercial construction field operations or supervision. The right person brings practical knowledge of construction methods and applicable codes, sound judgment in the field, and the leadership presence to keep teams aligned and moving forward. You should be comfortable communicating with clients and trade partners, solving problems in real time, and taking ownership of jobsite results. Hands‑on experience with layout or survey work, computer proficiency, and a valid driver's license are important for success in this role.

Compensation and Benefits

Compensation for this role is $60,000 to $90,000 annually, based on experience. Modus Construction also offers paid time off, holiday pay, a health insurance allowance, a company vehicle and fuel card, a company laptop, and ongoing training including OSHA certification.
