Review site plans and building layouts for feasibility and compliance

Interface with franchisors to ensure brand standards are met

Financing

Understanding of SBA lending

Qualifications

10+ years of experience in construction or real estate development

Proven experience managing entitlement and permitting processes across multiple jurisdictions

Familiarity with zoning, CUPs, site utilities, and building department approvals

Strong communication and interpersonal skills — able to work with new business owners and seasoned professionals alike

Ability to manage multiple projects independently with minimal oversight

Highly organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable solving problems proactively

Strong construction management skills, including oversight of general contractors, reviewing pay applications and change orders, coordinating inspections, and resolving jobsite issues

Ability to read and interpret construction documents, plans, and specifications

Comfortable conducting jobsite walks, participating in OAC (Owner-Architect-Contractor) meetings, and tracking progress against schedule and budget

Bonus points for experience with franchise concepts, especially in childcare, education, or recreation

What We Offer

A collaborative, respectful, and laid-back work culture

The chance to build something meaningful alongside a team that cares

Opportunities for professional development and long-term growth

Competitive salary (based on experience) and bonus potential
