• Coordinate homeowner meetings, pre-drywall walkthroughs, final walkthroughs, and punch-list completion.
• Prepare homes for internal reviews, inspections, homeowner walkthroughs, and closing.
• Help prevent recurring field defects and post-closing warranty issues.

Qualifications

• At least three years of residential construction supervision or related field experience.
• Custom home or high-end residential construction experience strongly preferred.
• Thorough understanding of residential building methods, sequencing, codes, inspections, safety, and quality standards.
• Ability to read architectural plans, specifications, scopes of work, and construction documents.
• Experience scheduling and managing subcontractors, suppliers, and multiple active jobsites.
• Strong field leadership, accountability, organization, and problem-solving abilities.
• Professional communication skills when working with clients, inspectors, vendors, and internal team members.
• Experience with Buildertrend or comparable construction management software preferred.
• High school diploma required; additional construction education is a plus.
• Valid driver's license and reliable transportation for travel between assigned jobsites.

Pay and Benefits

• Full-time, W-2 employment.
• $60,000-$80,000 annually, based on experience and qualifications.
• Health insurance.
• Dental insurance.
• Life insurance.
• 401(k) retirement plan with company matching.
• Paid time off.
• Manageable workload of approximately five to six active homes.
• Support from construction leadership, purchasing, design, and office personnel.
• Opportunity to grow into broader project leadership responsibilities.

You will be supported by an organized office team and experienced construction leadership. This is an opportunity to grow with an established custom builder while creating distinctive homes throughout Florida's coastal communities.
