Position summary

Leads TCM’s program at RELLIS and is accountable to campus leadership for the integrity of the obligation record across the portfolio. Builds the program from nothing: the register structure, the governance, the reporting, the procedures. When RELLIS leadership asks whether a developer is meeting its commitments, this is the person who answers.

Responsibilities

• Own the obligation register across all agreements in the portfolio and its accuracy
• Direct the review of executed agreements, amendments, and exhibits, and the extraction of obligations from them
• Establish governance: review cadence, escalation thresholds, documentation standards
• Serve as primary interface to RELLIS leadership and to developer counterparts
• Prepare correspondence and deficiency documentation for A&M System review and signature
• Direct and develop the team; balance loading across projects and stages
• Deliver the training and knowledge transfer program as RELLIS fills its own positions
• Manage TCM contract administration, staffing, and invoicing on the engagement

Required

• 12+ years in project or program management on complex capital programs
• Demonstrated contract administration depth — can read a long-form agreement, identify what it obligates each party to do, and build a system to track it
• Experience in a heavily regulated delivery environment: nuclear, semiconductor, pharmaceutical, data center, aerospace, defense, or major public infrastructure
• Prior service as an owner’s representative or owner’s agent, not solely contractor-side
• Experience leading a small professional team
• Strong technical writing; documentation will be reviewed by attorneys
• Credibility with senior executives and comfort holding sophisticated counterparties to their commitments
• Bachelor’s degree in engineering, construction management, architecture, business, or a related field, or equivalent experience

Preferred

• Texas PE, PMP, CCM, or equivalent
• Experience with ground leases, development agreements, or long-term real property instruments
• Prior work with a Texas public university system or state agency
• Familiarity with e-Builder or comparable owner-side PMIS
