📍 Chicagoland Area
We’re working with a well-established, mid-sized GC that’s been a consistent player in the market for nearly 20 years. They just wrapped their strongest year yet (~$340M in volume) and continue to see steady growth, largely driven by their light industrial portfolio.

- Mix of ground-up, tenant improvements, and repeat client work
- Stable growth with consistent yearly volume ($250M–$300M historically, $340M this past year)
- Tight-knit, team-oriented culture with long-term employees
What they’re looking for:
- 8–12+ years of experience in construction project management
- Strong background in light industrial / warehouse / distribution projects
