We're building a lean California field organization for larger restoration, reconstruction, renovation, and construction projects. This is a field-first leadership role for someone who can own execution across multiple concurrent projects in the San Diego territory with meaningful autonomy and clear field authority.
Your mission
Turn approved scopes and plans into safe, predictable field progress. You will be Apex Works' local authority on the job: keeping subcontractors, inspectors, stakeholders, materials, access, quality, and the short-term schedule aligned.
What you'll own
- Lead field execution across multiple concurrent projects within a defined regional territory
- Build and maintain short-interval plans, milestone schedules, and subcontractor sequencing
- Confirm jobsite readiness, access, deliveries, temporary facilities, protection, and daily logistics
- Coordinate permit follow-up, jurisdiction comments, inspections, and onsite meetings with inspectors
- Direct subcontractors within their approved scopes and verify manpower, materials, quality, and completion
- Coordinate owners, property managers, designers, engineers, utilities, neighbors, and other stakeholders in the field
- Read plans and specifications, identify conflicts early, document field conditions, and drive answers before work is blocked
- Reject deficient work, stop unsafe work, maintain progress evidence, and own punch and field closeout
- Escalate scope, price, contract, safety, and material schedule risk early with facts and a recommended next step
How the lean team works
Apex leadership handles estimating, contracts, pricing, change-order approval, billing, accounting, insurance administration, and back-office production. You provide accurate field information and own execution. Simple digital and AI-assisted workflows help turn your photos, notes, commitments, and exceptions into reports and follow-up without adding layers of coordinators.
Your field authority
- Set daily sequence and site logistics within the approved plan
- Direct subcontractors within signed scopes and require correction of deficient work
- Call for inspections, coordinate field access, and stop work for safety or quality risk
- Recommend recovery plans and ordinary field solutions; commercial or scope changes require written approval
What you bring (required)
- 5+ years of construction field leadership across restoration, reconstruction, renovation, or general construction
- Evidence that you have run several active projects without daily supervision
- Strong plan reading, subcontractor coordination, inspection, sequencing, logistics, safety, and quality-control judgment
- A record of finding constraints early, communicating bad news honestly, and closing the last ten percent
- Clear communication with clients, inspectors, design professionals, subcontractors, and internal leadership
- Based within reasonable driving distance of projects in the San Diego territory, with a valid driver's license, reliable transportation, and regular regional availability
- Comfort using a phone and straightforward digital tools for schedules, photos, daily evidence, and commitments
How success is measured
- Milestone reliability and recovery speed when conditions change
- Inspection pass rate, safety, quality, and punch-list closure
- Subcontractor readiness and commitments kept
- Early, accurate documentation of risk, field conditions, and decisions needed
- Clean handoffs, closeout, and stakeholder confidence
Compensation
- $90,000–$115,000 base salary, depending on demonstrated field leadership and project scope
- Project performance bonus tied to milestone reliability, quality, inspections, documentation, and closeout
- Safety, candor, required quality, and documented change control are payout gates—not tradeoffs
- Necessary approved business travel is reimbursed under a written policy; ordinary commuting is not reimbursed
- A company vehicle or fuel card may be assigned during high-mileage project phases
Benefits
- W-2 employment — steady payroll, taxes withheld, workers' comp covered
- Company health insurance
- Paid time off and paid holidays
