Client Details

• My client is a small but mighty General Contractor in Overland Park, KS. It was started about 25 years ago by our POC who is now the Operations Manager. Prior to that he was with a larger name for 10 years - and he did not like the large corporate environment but wanted to bring the processes and projects of a large company to a smaller outfit, and that is what this firm is all about.
• The company does about $100M per year and sits at about 26 people right now.
• Projects they focus on are Data Centers, Pharmaceutical, Healthcare - they stay away from all Retail and Multi-family. They pride themselves in working on the same complex, large projects the big players do.
• Every day is a challenge - in a fun and exciting way. You're working for very smart/interesting clients, and doing very complex projects. This is a firm for people who enjoy problem solving, and like to be the CEO / decision maker of their own work and that do not like micro management.
