What This Role Is All About

• Coordinate with Property Managers, Building Managers, and vendors to ensure projects are delivered on time, on budget, and with minimal disruption to tenants.
• Responsible for development and execution of CapEx project plans in residential and commercial mixed-use buildings including customer and client facing communication plans.
• Responsible for tracking project schedules, budgets, and variances, and escalating risks, delays, and change orders for approval.

Reporting & Financial Oversight

• Negotiate scopes of work, contracts, and pricing in accordance with Chard's procurement policies and delegated authority.
• Monitor contractor performance, safety compliance, and insurance and licensing requirements.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Work closely with Development, Construction, Property Management, and Asset Management teams to align capital planning with broader business objectives.
• Support the onboarding of new properties into CPG's managed portfolio by assessing capital needs and building conditions.

Capital Planning & Budgeting

• Accountable for leading the development of annual and multi-year capital budgets across the CPG portfolio, in partnership with Property Managers and the Asset Management team.
• Consolidate property-level capital budgets into a single portfolio-wide capital plan for review by the Senior Leadership Team and ownership groups.
• Responsible for prioritizing capital projects based on building condition assessments, lifecycle needs, regulatory requirements, and return on investment.

What You'll Bring

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Construction Management, Real Estate, or a related field, or equivalent experience, is required.
• 5+ years of experience managing capital projects or capital budgets in multi-family residential, commercial, or mixed-use real estate is required.
• Ability to read and interpret architectural, structural, mechanical and electrical drawings and translate technical information into actionable project plans.

• Skilled at managing multiple projects and stakeholders simultaneously without losing sight of budget and timeline.
• A clear and confident communicator, able to translate technical scope into plain language for non-technical stakeholders.
• Proactive and solution-oriented, with a track record of anticipating risks before they become issues.
• Energized by working in a fast-paced, growing organization, and comfortable navigating ambiguity.
