Our SelectLeaders client, a privately owned high-end General Contracting and Construction Management firm, is seeking a senior leader to grow its Miami luxury residential platform.
Our client specializes exclusively in ultra-high-end residential construction, delivering custom single-family homes, penthouses, and select residential-focused mixed-use projects. The firm operates with a quality-over-quantity philosophy, intentionally limiting project volume to ensure best-in-class execution, discretion, and client satisfaction.
