Vitality is a talent partner to the most forward-thinking companies in construction and development. From national builders to design-forward developers, we connect top professionals to career-defining opportunities in commercial construction.

This role is with a respected and growing general contractor with a strong reputation in ground-up and large-scale commercial projects. If your background fits, we’ll reach out with full details—company name, leadership team, project pipeline—before presenting your resume.

Lead with Confidence. Build with Purpose.

As a Project Director, you're not just overseeing timelines and budgets—you’re driving vision, performance, and accountability across complex, high-value commercial projects. This is a leadership role with real influence—your decisions shape not just project outcomes, but client trust, team growth, and long-term business success.

Whether you're leading from the field, the boardroom, or alongside preconstruction, this is your chance to take ownership of major work, elevate others, and deliver results that matter.

• Flagship Projects: Take the reins on signature commercial developments ($50M–$300M+)
• Team Authority: Lead multidisciplinary teams from concept to closeout
• Strategic Voice: Play a key role in planning, client development, and operational leadership
• Growth Trajectory: Step into a role with visibility and runway to executive leadership
• People-Focused Culture: Join a company that values trust, communication, and long-term partnership

What You’ll Be Responsible For

• Provide high-level oversight of multiple large-scale commercial projects
• Align stakeholders on vision, goals, and execution strategy
• Manage project teams including PMs, Superintendents, and Engineers
• Lead budgeting, scheduling, and logistics planning at a portfolio level
• Act as the primary point of contact for ownership groups and design teams
• Ensure high performance in safety, quality control, and risk management
• Partner with business development and preconstruction to plan future work
• Mentor and develop emerging leaders on your teams

Build What’s Next—With Us

This is more than a job—it’s a chance to lead with impact, develop high-performing teams, and deliver projects that shape cities and serve communities. If you’re ready to step into a high-trust, high-responsibility role where you’ll be empowered to lead, we’d love to talk.
