About this position
This is not a role where you sit behind a schedule and report problems upward. You’ll own your projects end to end — from early planning through delivery and close-out — working alongside a highly collaborative team to collectively drive the project forward. You’ll be trusted to navigate real-world complexity with judgment, accountability, and momentum, bringing people together to get the work done well.
Because many of our projects are Lark developments, you’ll work closely with development, finance, operations, consultants, and site teams. That means strong collaboration, no ego, and the ability to influence without relying on hierarchy. You’ll be comfortable working at all levels — from trades and site leadership through to senior executives.
This is a fast-paced, high-expectation environment. If you thrive on responsibility, enjoy solving messy problems, and want to work on projects that genuinely matter to communities, you’ll fit well here.

Collaboration & Coordination
- Working closely with Superintendents, Project Coordinators, consultants, and internal teams
- Partnering with Development on Lark-led projects to balance commercial, design, and delivery priorities
- Coordinating stakeholders to ensure alignment and avoid execution bottlenecks
Risk, Planning & Controls

- Creating clarity, accountability, and momentum across project teams
- Actively developing people — building capability, confidence, and ownership
Communication & Accountability

- Managing consultants, vendors, and contracts with confidence and professionalism

- Leading in a way that reflects Lark’s values: Drive, Authentic, Respect, Elevate, Safety, and Bold
