  • Interface with project teams and executive leadership to align grading operations with project milestones and budgets.
  • Collaborate with equipment maintenance teams to ensure optimal fleet performance.

  • Experience managing large, diverse teams in a multi-site environment.
  • Spanish / English bilingual skills or basic working Spanish proficiency is a strong plus.
  • Willingness to travel regionally across the Southeast U.S.
  • Benefits :

  • Base Salary : ~$200,000
  • Annual Bonus : 2550% target bonus based on company and personal performance
  • Equity Opportunity : Lucrative Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)
  • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance
