Job description
Job Description Job Description Our client is a highly respected and capable, design-forward landscape company in the Greater Cleveland market.
They seek a Director of Construction to lead and scale a high-performing division focused on luxury outdoor living hardscape and landscape residential projects. They build pools, outdoor kitchens, patios, stand alone structures, landscape install, irrigation and masonry. Projects can range from $20k to well over $400k with some exceeding $1 million.
If you're someone who thrives on ownership, accountability, and building teams that deliver exceptional results-this is the role.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
You own the Construction Division - performance, people, and profitability
Work with a company known for high-end residential work, craftsmanship, and client experience
Strong backlog of work and reputation-this is about optimizing and scaling, not fixing chaos
Direct impact on growth, margins, and long-term strategy
Leadership that values process, accountability, and continuous improvement
What You'll Be Responsible For
You are the leader everything rolls up to-if it's happening in construction, it's your responsibility.

Own full P&L performance for the construction division
Drive revenue, profitability, and margin performance on a weekly and monthly basis
Lead budgeting, forecasting, and financial accountability across all projects
Ensure strong cash flow and support AR performance
Team Leadership & Development
Lead, coach, and develop Project Managers and field leadership
Build a team of A-players-train, elevate, or make changes when needed
Establish a culture of accountability, energy, and performance
Conduct regular one-on-ones, performance reviews, and development plans
Operational Excellence
Standardize processes, build SOPs, and drive consistency across all projects
Implement training programs and structured onboarding ("training rodeo")
Ensure safety, quality, and execution standards are met across all jobs
Monitor project flow, scheduling, and execution efficiency
Client Experience & Quality
Ensure an elite client experience from start to finish
Drive high levels of customer satisfaction and project quality
Maintain strong communication standards and problem resolution
Project & Process Oversight
Oversee project handoffs, estimating accuracy, and execution standards
Conduct bid vs. actual reviews and continuously improve performance
Ensure projects are completed on time, on budget, and at the expected level of quality
Vendor & Subcontractor Management
Build and manage strong vendor and subcontractor relationships
Ensure pricing, performance, and contract compliance align with company standards
What Success Looks Like
Hitting revenue and margin targets consistently
High-performing, accountable PM team
Projects delivered on time, on budget, and at a high level of quality
Strong client satisfaction and repeat business
A scalable, process-driven construction division
What We're Looking For
Proven leadership experience in landscape construction, outdoor living, or similar project-based environments
Strong business acumen with P&L ownership
Experience managing Project Managers and multiple concurrent projects
Ability to build systems, develop people, and drive accountability
A coach and leader who sets the tone and elevates those around them
Detail-oriented, highly organized, and results-driven
Compensation & Benefits
Base Salary: $100,000 target
Profit Sharing: Significant upside tied to division performance
Vehicle Allowance:
