Capital governance: Run fund approval workflows, including oversight of operator-led spend approvals, ensuring alignment with fund criteria and thresholds.
Execution oversight: Partner with operating partners and vendors to deliver projects on schedule and within cost, with disciplined change-order control.
Reporting & documentation: Maintain strong tracking and documentation to support internal decisions, investor visibility, and portfolio risk management.

Must-haves:
10+ years of experience across capital projects / CapEx planning / construction leadership / redevelopment / diligence or real estate investment platforms.
Clear ownership of multi-asset / multi-site CapEx programs (not single-project delivery).
Direct experience translating diligence into execution: PCA → scope → budget → delivery.
Strong command of hard-cost drivers, vendor pricing, and change-order controls; proven ability to drive transparency and accountability.
Experience with value-add or occupied renovation environments where prioritization trade-offs matter.
Fast, scrappy operator mindset - comfortable building process while executing in a high-growth setting.
Strong communication skills with the ability to influence senior stakeholders and operating partners.
