Client Details

• My client was founded 14 years ago with its primary market being in the Education/K-12 space, but also doing some public work as well (City Hall, police stations, facility work). They run as a design/build Construction Management firm (no self-perform) with in house engineering, all projects developed in-house, and they act as the prime contact with the client.
• My client has grown to roughly a 55 person firm since launching. Their growth has been very steady and healthy, and they continue to be very selective and particular about the culture - this is more important than experience to them.

• Excellent work/life balance. They pride themselves on the fact they operate at a true 40/50 hour week.
