Driven by a commitment to integrity, communication, and top-tier workmanship, we bring our clients’ vision to life with precision and care.

CDM is a specialty contractor that has been in business since 1956, built on decades of expertise, reliability, and strong customer relationships. A few years ago, we expanded by launching our General Contracting (GC) division, which has quickly developed a solid backlog and a high-performing team both in the office and the field.

This division operates with the energy and opportunity of a startup—supported by the financial strength, resources, and stability of a much larger organization. We have established systems, strong administrative support, and the foundation needed for significant growth.

We are now seeking a collaborative and strategic leader to guide this division forward, scale operations, and inspire an already talented team. We offer a competitive base salary along with compelling financial incentives tied to the division’s success.

If you’ve always envisioned building and scaling a commercial GC division, this could be an incredible opportunity to lead, grow, and make a lasting impact.
