Regional Vice President of Florida in Tampa, Florida at LGE

• Lead, Manage, Retain & Hold My Team Accountable – Recruit, develop, and retain a high-performing Florida team, and hold that team to clear standards of accountability.
• Safety First – Zero recordable safety incidents across all Florida projects and subcontractors – no exceptions for growth-market pace or pursuit pressure.
• Clients Are Raving LGE Fans – Florida clients become referenceable, repeat, raving advocates for LGE – not merely satisfied one-time customers.
• PDA / AIA Sales Metrics to Goal – Signed Phase Development Agreements and AIA contracts to goal, tracked monthly as the region's core sales metric.
• Relentless Focus on the Design Build Process – Uncompromising adherence to LGE's integrated design-build process from preconstruction through closeout – not a traditional, siloed GC sequence.

• Recruit and hire the first one to two key leadership positions for the Tampa office (e.g., Director of Preconstruction and/or Director of Business Development), then build out the fuller leadership bench as volume justifies it.
• Personally own recruiting as a core, ongoing function – not a one-time hiring event – building a pipeline of A-player talent ahead of need.
• Coach, mentor, and develop direct reports using LGE's core values and the A player framework; delegate execution authority as the team matures rather than centralizing decisions.
• Establish the Tampa office culture, cadence, and operating rhythm (team meetings, 1:1s, accountability structure) from the ground up.
• Create succession depth so that no single project or client relationship depends solely on the RVP.

• Build LGE's brand, reputation, and relationship network in the Tampa / Florida market from an earlier stage than a mature region requires – owners, brokers, engineers, and industry partners.
• Develop and execute a market entry and growth strategy, including competitive positioning against established Florida design-build and GC firms.
• Personally lead or co-lead pursuit strategy on priority opportunities and represent LGE at industry and client-facing events across the region.
• Partner with the President on market sizing, target account strategy, and go/no-go pursuit decisions specific to Florida.
• Build and manage a pipeline of business development opportunities, tracking conversion from pursuit to signed contract – with PDA and AIA execution as the core sales metrics to goal.
• Drive the client experience across every pursuit and project so that Florida clients become referenceable, repeat, raving fans of LGE.

• Oversee construction, estimating, and project delivery across the region through the leaders hired into those roles – not by directly running individual projects.
• Own the financial performance of the Florida region: budgeting, forecasting, cost control, and profitability, reporting results to the President.
• Set goals, monitor performance, and evaluate results against organizational and growth objectives for the region.
• Assist in negotiation and review of Florida prime contracts alongside corporate counsel, prior to sending for final review.
• Ensure each signed Florida project is properly set up in the construction management software program and staffed appropriately by the team (not personally staffed line-by-line by the RVP).
• Maintain visibility into project schedules, permitting progress, and City review milestones through regular check-ins with the leadership team – not by personally attending every kickoff and submittal.
• Establish and maintain the region's approved subcontractor and vendor network.
• Resolve escalated issues involving subcontractors, clients, or municipalities that the team is unable to resolve at their level.
• Own regional safety performance with a standing goal of zero recordable incidents, and build a safety-first culture across LGE staff and subcontractors alike.
• Maintain uncompromising adherence to LGE's integrated design-build process – preconstruction through closeout – rather than defaulting to a traditional, siloed general-contracting sequence.

• Demonstrated track record of building and scaling a team or office from an early stage – this is a must-have, not a preference.
• High-energy, entrepreneurial leader with strong external presence; comfortable being the face of LGE in a new market.
• Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, Architecture, or related field. Master's degree or MBA preferred.
• Minimum of 10 years' experience in the construction industry, including senior leadership experience managing regional operations or a comparable P&L.
• Strong financial acumen: budget management, financial forecasting, and analysis.
• Proven business development ability – not just relationship maintenance, but new market/new relationship creation.
• Advanced knowledge of construction scheduling, construction management processes, means and methods, and relevant building codes and regulations.
• Competent in conflict and crisis management may occur during a commercial construction project.
• Familiar with construction project management software.
