About the role

Henderson Scott US is seeking a Senior Preconstruction Manager to lead budgeting, estimating, value engineering, and scheduling for complex projects. You will engage owners, architects, and subcontractors to ensure accurate cost control and seamless handoffs. Responsibilities include developing GMP estimates, coordinating bids, and driving constructability reviews while maintaining design intent. Strong NYC knowledge and multi-project leadership are essential.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
