Job Description
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
