About You: Build what’s next in healthcare construction.
ARCO/Murray National Construction is growing its healthcare construction platform and is seeking an experienced Senior Healthcare Project Manager to help shape its next chapter. This is an opportunity to join early, take meaningful ownership, and help build a national practice focused on high-quality healthcare environments. You will lead healthcare construction projects from estimating, design, and preconstruction through closeout, partnering with clients, design teams, subcontractors, and internal stakeholders to deliver successful outcomes. Our current work includes tenant improvements and ground-up outpatient facilities, with a focus on medical office buildings and ambulatory surgery centers .
The ideal candidate has numerous years of experience delivering projects in active healthcare facilities (both with a ground-up and tenant improvement background) and understands how to plan and execute work in occupied, operational environments. You will bring strong technical judgment, disciplined project leadership, and the ability to build trust with clients and partners. Moreover, the tenacity you bring when executing these projects will be symbiotic to the ever-growing ceiling you can achieve towards bonus potential
Lead and coordinate all managerial and administrative aspects of project from the earliest stages of preconstruction through project closeout
Work closely with clients and the design team to develop preliminary concept drawings and project budget
Oversee subcontractor selection and buyout process for all trades and vendors
Identify and investigate opportunities to procure material and/or specialty equipment directly when advantageous to project budget or schedule
Work with Project Superintendent to develop and review subcontractor scopes of work/contracts, project schedule, and site logistics plan
Lead preconstruction planning meetings with all designers, subcontractors and vendors aimed at solving potential constructability, sequencing, and/or manpower issues
Lead weekly/bi-weekly OAC meetings on-site once construction begins to review progress and address challenges directly with client
Track and manage project performance vs budget; prepare owner pay applications, cost status, and progress billing reports
Most importantly…find a way to make the construction process FUN for your clients, subcontractors, and vendors without sacrificing on QUALITY or SAFETY
