Job description

We are looking for a Senior Program Manager to oversee complex modular healthcare construction projects within a fast-paced design-build and prefabrication environment, with ownership spanning preconstruction, execution, scheduling, and operational coordination.

This role is ideal for a senior construction operator who can lead large-scale projects while navigating both field execution and high‑level project strategy. The company is expanding rapidly across healthcare and institutional construction, creating long‑term opportunity for experienced leaders who can operate beyond a traditional Project Manager role. Candidates with modular, prefabrication, manufacturing‑integrated, or healthcare construction experience will align especially well.

Responsibilities

• Lead multiple modular healthcare and institutional construction projects from planning through closeout while maintaining schedule, budget, and quality objectives
• Drive project execution across preconstruction, estimating support, procurement, manufacturing coordination, and field operations
• Oversee subcontractors, vendors, field teams, and internal stakeholders across active project phases
• Coordinate project schedules, manufacturing timelines, logistics, and installation sequencing within a modular construction environment
• Review project drawings, specifications, contracts, and scope documents to ensure alignment throughout execution
• Manage project financials, forecasting, cost tracking, change orders, and operational reporting
• Interface directly with clients, architects, engineers, consultants, and leadership teams to resolve project challenges and maintain progress
• Support estimating and preconstruction activities including pricing reviews, constructability analysis, and scope validation
• Collaborate with operations and executive leadership to improve project delivery processes and scalability across future projects
• Ensure project teams maintain strong communication, accountability, and execution standards across office, manufacturing, and field operations

Requirements

• 8+ years of experience managing large-scale commercial, healthcare, or institutional construction projects
• Experience operating in a senior‑level project management, program management, or hybrid PM/preconstruction role required
• Modular, prefabricated, or manufacturing‑integrated construction experience strongly preferred
• Healthcare construction experience preferred, though comparable complex project experience will be considered
• Demonstrated experience owning projects from preconstruction through final delivery
• Strong understanding of construction scheduling, estimating, budgeting, contracts, and project execution workflows
• Ability to read and interpret construction drawings, specifications, and project documentation
• Stable career history required; candidates with frequent short‑term moves may not align with the long‑term nature of this role

Benefits

• Compensation flexibility for strong candidates
• Full benefits package
• PTO and retirement offerings
• Long‑term growth opportunity within an expanding organization
