Full Job Description
## Description About Vessel Vessel Technologies is reinventing the apartment building. Unlike traditional construction companies, Vessel delivers projects through a highly standardized building production system in which design, engineering, materials, sequencing, budgets, work instructions, and construction methods are developed and continuously improved at the corporate level. This approach allows Vessel to deliver multifamily housing with greater speed, quality, predictability, and efficiency than conventional construction. Because Vessel projects are executed through a defined production system, many responsibilities traditionally assigned to construction project managers are centralized or performed by specialized teams. The Trade Partner Operations Manager plays a critical role within this model by ensuring that the trade partners required to execute the Vessel production system are properly sourced, contracted, administered, and managed throughout project delivery. The Opportunity The Trade Partner Operations Manager is responsible for securing, contracting, administering, and managing the network of trade partners required to execute Vessel projects. Working within Vessel’s established production system, the Trade Partner Operations Manager ensures that all required trade partners are engaged and capable of performing within Vessel’s predefined standards for staffing, productivity, quality, cost, and schedule. Unlike a traditional construction project manager, this role does not create project budgets, develop project schedules, manage permitting activities, coordinate inspections, report to ownership, or supervise day-to-day field operations. Vessel’s project plans, budgets, production sequences, and work instructions are established in advance. The Trade Partner Operations Manager’s responsibility is to ensure that the trade partners executing those plans perform successfully. ## Additional Information Qualifications 5+ years of experience in
