Senior Director, Interior Construction

At A+, we support private-sector commercial clients through an integrated approach—from strategic planning to project delivery. We act as a single point of contact, orchestrating the entire journey in collaboration with the architects, engineers, professionals and partners who contribute to each project’s success.

At A+, we challenge the ways of working that slow our industry down. We believe in smaller, stronger teams, decisions made close to the field and true accountability for results. If you are driven to improve how things are done and deliver ambitious results, A+ is the place for you.

THE ROLE’S MISSION

Your mandate is to lead a business unit, with full responsibility for its team, market development, client relationships, project delivery and financial performance.

You will oversee an operation of approximately 25 people and create the conditions for it to evolve as a true entrepreneurial unit—autonomous in its decisions, close to its clients and fully accountable for its results.

You will be able to draw on the expertise of A+’s other autonomous business units, including architecture, design and engineering; skilled trades; logistics and equipment; finance and administration; talent acquisition and development; technology; and other specialized teams that strengthen our delivery capabilities.

Your role is to bring the right expertise together at the right time, create strong alignment around the desired outcome and empower everyone to act with clarity and autonomy.

WHAT YOU WILL BUILD

1. A high-performing team

   You will build a team capable of taking on increasingly complex challenges. You will lead recruitment, development and key talent decisions, with the support of our talent acquisition and development team.

2. A profitable and growing business

   You will strengthen existing relationships and build new ones with clients, real estate owners, brokers and partners who generate our next business opportunities.

3. Strong financial performance

   You will be accountable for the full performance of your business unit, including revenue, margins, expenses and profitability. The goal is healthy, predictable growth driven by stronger talent, better opportunities and higher-value projects.

4. An end-to-end client experience

   You will own the entire client journey: identifying opportunities, understanding needs, developing the right solution, securing the mandate, delivering the project and building a lasting client relationship.

   Your team will be recognized for consistently meeting its commitments to budget, schedule and quality.

WHAT DOES SUCCESS LOOK LIKE?

After one year, your business unit has a strong team and a credible succession pipeline, a healthy business development pipeline, clear visibility into its financial performance and a repeatable project delivery model.

Responsibilities are clear. Decisions are made close to the field. Projects are predictable. Clients come back.

Over time, you become less involved in day-to-day decisions while remaining fully accountable for the results.

• You have previously held responsibility for more than one business function.

• You understand commercial interior construction projects and have worked in an environment where design and construction teams collaborate closely.

• Most importantly, you have demonstrated the ability to:

  • build, attract and develop high-performing teams;

  • develop client relationships and generate new business opportunities;

  • lead complex projects with real accountability for budgets and schedules;

  • manage a business unit, profit centre or significant financial responsibilities;

  • make difficult decisions when necessary;

  • create autonomy while maintaining clarity, discipline and accountability.

• Experience within an entrepreneurial or decentralized organization, or one operating through shared areas of expertise, will be particularly relevant.
