Director of Oakview Construction
About Oakview Construction
Oakview Construction is a licensed, bonded, and insured general contracting firm owned by 2B Living, a leading Bay Area property management company. Oakview specializes in multifamily unit turns — from quick turns to full unit renovations — delivering high-quality, cost-effective construction services that enhance property value and resident satisfaction.
About the Role
Oakview Construction — the construction arm of 2B Living, one of the Bay Area’s most dynamic property management firms — is looking for a Director ready to build, lead, and truly own the next chapter of our growth.
This is not your average construction management job. As the Director of Oakview Construction, you’ll operate with the autonomy and entrepreneurial spirit of running your own company — backed by the resources, stability, and vision of a thriving parent organization. You’ll oversee every facet of operations, from estimating and budgeting to field execution, quality control, and cash flow management.
This role blends strategy and boots-on-the-ground leadership: you’ll guide project teams, strengthen supplier relationships, and partner directly with property owners and managers to plan, anticipate, and deliver projects that elevate living spaces across the Bay Area.
Why This Role Is a Game-Changer
This is your chance to make Oakview your own — to shape systems, grow a team, and define how construction excellence looks within a fast-scaling company. You’ll have:
- True ownership of operations, strategy, and results
- Autonomy to innovate, with support from a strong executive team that values initiative and accountability
- A seat at the table, influencing how 2B Living and Oakview grow together
If you’ve ever wanted to run a small business within a larger, values-driven organization — this is it.
About You
You’re a builder in every sense of the word — a seasoned leader who thrives at the intersection of construction, business, and people. You think like an owner: proactive, numbers-driven, and relentlessly solution-oriented.
You bring the experience to manage complex projects and the mindset to scale an operation. You’re just as confident walking a job site as presenting a financial plan — balancing efficiency, quality, and care for both your team and clients.
Above all, you lead with clarity, respect, and accountability — inspiring others to raise their standards and take pride in their work.
