Senior Preconstruction Manager

Kenosha or Waukesha, WI

Do you want to be part of the Riley Construction Co., Inc. team with endless potential and opportunity? We are looking for someone with an entrepreneurial spirit who can come in and lead and coach others.

We are one of the fastest-growing commercial construction companies in Southeastern Wisconsin and Northern Illinois, and we are continuing to invest in smart growth, strong partnerships, and exceptional client experiences.

We are currently seeking a qualified Senior Preconstruction Manager for our Kenosha or Waukesha office. This is more than a traditional estimating or project management role, it is an opportunity to become a trusted advisor to clients, a strategic partner to operations teams, and a key contributor to the future growth of Riley Construction. This position also offers significant leadership growth potential and possible ownership opportunities.

Position Overview

At Riley Construction, pre-construction is about far more than producing accurate numbers. It is about creating certainty, building trust, and helping clients make confident decisions early in the process.

As a Senior Preconstruction Manager, you will play a critical role in shaping project outcomes before construction begins. You will guide clients through budgeting, scheduling, risk evaluation, and project planning while helping them understand tradeoffs, opportunities, and long-term value. Your work will directly influence profitability, operational success, and client confidence.

This role requires an ownership mindset, a relationship-first approach, and the ability to collaborate across teams to deliver exceptional outcomes. You will work closely with clients, architects, engineers, subcontractors, and Riley operations teams to ensure projects are strategically positioned for success from concept through execution.

You'll join a talented and collaborative team committed to continuous improvement, operational excellence, and building the future of Riley's preconstruction approach.

Key Responsibilities:

Serve as a trusted advisor to clients throughout the pre-construction process by providing insight, guidance, and strategic recommendations
Develop conceptual budgets within accelerated timelines using limited design and project information
Analyze complex plans and specifications to prepare detailed and accurate estimates
Help clients understand project tradeoffs, cost drivers, risk factors, and value opportunities
Reduce uncertainty by proactively identifying scope gaps, constructability concerns, and budget risks early in the process
Review and evaluate subcontractor proposals to ensure complete and accurate project scope coverage
Partner closely with operations teams to create a smooth transition from pre-construction to project execution
Manage multiple project pursuits simultaneously through strong prioritization, organization, and communication
Utilize critical path scheduling processes and software to develop accurate project durations and client proposals
Participate in and lead client meetings, interviews, and presentations with professionalism and confidence
Build and strengthen lasting relationships with clients, architects, engineers, subcontractors, and industry partners
Support awarded projects through change order estimating, ongoing client communication, and operational collaboration as needed
Contribute to the continued evolution and improvement of Riley's pre-construction systems, processes, and best practices
Operate with urgency, integrity, accountability, and pride in outcomes that reflect Riley's core values
Support and mentor other members of the pre-construction team

Qualifications:

EducationExperience

Bachelor's degree in construction management, Architecture, Engineering, Design, or a related field preferred, or equivalent experience
Minimum of 10 years of experience in preconstruction management within commercial construction
Advanced understanding of preconstruction processes, estimating techniques, and strategic project planning
Familiarity with construction contract language and risk assessment
Strong ability to read and interpret construction documents
Experience collaborating with operations teams and external project stakeholders throughout project development

Technical Skills

Proficiency in Microsoft Word, Excel, and Outlook
Experience with general Estimating and Scheduling software.
Preferred: Minimum 5 years of experience with estimating complete preparation.

Professional Skills

Strong relationship-building and communication skills
Strategic thinking and sound decision-making abilities
Collaborative leadership style with a team-first mindset
Strong organizational and problem-solving capabilities
Client-focused approach with a high level of professionalism and responsiveness
Ability to take ownership, operate with urgency, and follow through on commitments

Why Join Riley Construction?

Opportunity for leadership growth and long-term career advancement
Potential ownership opportunity
High visibility with clients, leadership, and project teams
Collaborative environment built on trust, partnership, and accountability
Opportunity to help shape the future of Riley's preconstruction approach
Meaningful work that directly impacts project success, client relationships, and operational excellence
A culture that values smart growth, operational partnership, and pride in delivering exceptional outcomes

Join a team where your expertise, leadership, and relationships help create certainty for clients and success for projects before the first shovel hits the ground.

We offer a comprehensive benefits package, pleasant working environment and team atmosphere. Come join an established firm whose core values include Humility, Integrity, Flexibility and Initiative...understanding that it all begins with our employees!
