Original job description

Who We Are

Core Spaces (Core) is more than a real estate company, it’s a people company. Where building relationships is just as important as building properties. From researchers and architects to designers and operators, Core is made up of risk takers and dreamers who are on a mission to invent the future of living. Our six cultural values guide us every day and we strive to live them in everything we do: PUSH (Invent Better Places to Live), GRIT (We Got This), LIFT (Help Each Other Win), SHINE (Bring Your Full Self), UPHOLD (Never Break Trust), GROW (Always Get Better). Everything Core does stems from this culture of collaboration and innovation, and the drive to constantly improve the resident experience. This unique approach has led to creating spaces and services that are redefining the way people live.

What We Do

Founded in 2010, Core is a vertically integrated real estate investment manager focused on acquiring, developing and managing across the student housing and build-to-rent (“BTR”) sectors. Its residential communities feature world-class amenities, progressive design, and hospitality-driven service. Core’s student housing portfolio includes over 74,440 beds currently owned or managed, with a pipeline of over 53,860 beds in various stages of development. Core’s BTR division has over 3,000 homes under development, now leasing or in its pipeline in high-growth metros nationwide. For more information, visit www.corespaces.com.

Position Overview

As an Associate, Development, you will be the day-to-day engine behind your assigned projects, partnering directly with Development Managers and Senior Development Managers to carry projects from acquisition and entitlement hand-off through construction completion and turnover to asset management. You will own the project information, schedules, budgets and documentation that keep Core’s developments on time, on budget, true to our brand and consistent with our standards and specifications. This is a hands-on role with real accountability: you will be Core’s on-site representative, a trusted point of contact for architects, general contractors and consultants, and a proactive problem-solver who surfaces risks early and recommends solutions. It is an ideal opportunity for a driven, detail-oriented professional who wants to build a long-term career in development.

What You Will Do

Pre-Construction

Own the review of design and pre-construction deliverables to ensure all physical components of each project meet Core’s standards, specifications and brand objectives, and elevate deviations to the Development Manager with recommended resolutions
Track and drive the permitting and entitlement-compliance process against the Development Schedule, coordinating with consultants and jurisdictions to anticipate delays and protect critical-path milestones
Lead project meetings by preparing agendas, documenting decisions, and managing accountability and on-time completion of action items across internal and external stakeholders
Review consultant, vendor and contractor agreements for consistency across Core’s projects and hold all parties accountable for their contractual obligations, escalating gaps in scope, schedule or cost
Evaluate the General Contractor’s agreement, including schedule, qualifications and inclusions, to confirm alignment with Core standards and identify risk before buyout
Review invoices and billings for accuracy against work completed and contract terms, and prepare them for approval to protect project budgets
Prepare and deliver weekly project updates to the projects group that clearly communicate status, risks, budget and schedule variances, and decisions needed

Construction

Serve as Core’s representative and primary point of contact for project information workflow among the owner, Architect, General Contractor and subcontractors
Proactively identify schedule and budget risks using prior contractor performance, market standards and project historical data, and recommend mitigation strategies to leadership
Manage quality control of construction progress through active engagement with the Architect and General Contractor, from subcontractor buyout through punch list completion
Analyze the construction schedule using productivity analysis and past project metrics to confirm critical path and milestone dates are met, and recommend acceleration plans when necessary
Build, maintain and update project forecasting and tracking tools that inform cost, schedule and decision-making for the development team
Verify compliance with entitlement, architectural, permit and contract documents, and resolve or escalate nonconformance
Partner with the Design department to develop FF&E contracts and schedules and oversee installation of all FF&E
Evaluate change orders for merit, consistency with contracts and historical data, and budget impact, and make recommendations for approval
Assemble and review project invoices for conformance with contracts and process monthly payments accurately and on time

Post-Construction

Develop the project closeout plan and track all open punch list and warranty items through resolution
Implement and track warranty and punch list work following project delivery, and ensure a clean hand-off to asset management

Other

Travel will be required. On average, 1–2 days of travel are expected every other week, with additional travel expected during project delivery months (i.e., spring break through summer).
Perform all other duties and tasks as assigned by management
Must be able to complete all physical requirements of this role with or without a reasonable accommodation

Ideally, You'll Have

Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Architecture, Finance, or other relevant field
2-4 years of experience in construction or real estate development, including exposure to project budgets, schedules, contracts, and invoice/change order review
Strong understanding of construction and development processes, from entitlement and permitting through design, construction and closeout
Sound judgment and the ability to analyze data, identify risk and make well-reasoned recommendations with increasing independence
Excellent organization, documentation, and communication skills, with the ability to manage multiple projects and hold external partners accountable
Proficiency with project forecasting and tracking tools, including advanced Microsoft Excel
Located in or around the Chicagoland area, with ability to travel to project sites

You'll crush it if you have experience with

Experience in student housing, multi-family, hospitality or senior living development
Hands-on experience with Northspyre, Procore and PlanGrid
