Job description

The Work

LAUSD's facilities program is one of the largest in the country, delivered under DSA oversight. As a Senior Project Manager II, you sit above the project level, providing construction oversight to Owner's Authorized Representatives and steering the District's largest and most complex programs.

You resolve the hard problems: complex disputes, change orders with district-wide impact, and cost and schedule variances across a portfolio. You develop and monitor OAR performance, review progress against schedules, and provide functional direction over cost control, dispute resolution, contract administration, and quality control.

You work across District branches and departments, support bid and contract planning with Regional Directors, perform fiscal management across multiple projects, and help shape the internal policies and procedures the program runs on.

What You Will Own

• Construction oversight of OARs and the largest, most complex programs
• Resolution of complex project issues, disputes, and high-impact change orders
• OAR performance: development, assignment, and monitoring
• Progress against construction schedules and variance monitoring across the portfolio
• Functional direction over cost control, dispute resolution, contract administration, and quality control
• Fiscal management across multiple projects and coordination across District branches

What You Bring

• Path A: 20 years of project and construction management, 10 of them managing large programs with projects over $50M (not cumulative), plus 5 years in educational, public works, or large commercial construction, plus a degree in architecture, engineering, or construction management (a CCM from CMAA may substitute for the degree)
• Path B: 25 years of project and construction management, 20 of them managing large programs with projects over $50M (not cumulative), plus the same 5 years; degree and CCM preferred, not required

Preferred

• Design-Build, BIM, and LEED and/or CHPS experience
• DSA construction and design process experience

Compensation

Salary range: $234,000 to $257,000 per year, based on experience.

Benefits: health, dental, and vision at low cost; 401k; three weeks of PTO; and an ESOP (employee stock ownership) at no cost to you, with a 3% Safe Harbor contribution vested on day one.
