Branch Management

A Branch Manager for Venture Construction is expected to be a business manager, a manager of people and to provide leadership for project managers as well.

• The first responsibility should be to control and direct all activities of the branch office through its project managers, accounting personnel and secretaries.
  
• The field activities of each branch office are controlled and directed by the job superintendent under the direction of our area supervisors. The branch manager and the area supervisor should work hand-in-hand, trying to make each other's work go as smoothly as possible. COMPLETE TEAMWORK BETWEEN THE BRANCH MANAGER AND AREA SUPERVISOR IS VITAL FOR THIS JOB DESCRIPTION.
  
• OVERSEEING AND CONTROLLING THE INVOICING AND COLLECTIONS OF EACH PROJECT MANAGER IN THE BRANCH IS VITAL FOR THIS JOB DESCRIPTION.

 
Project Management

A Venture Project Manager is a team player working under the direction of the Branch Manager and making every effort to bring the project in on time, within the budget and with a quality we can all be proud of. The Project Manager, Job Superintendent and Area Supervisor must always work together toward a common goal.

• Client contacts and client satisfaction.
• Bidding and negotiating projects.
• Buy out of the job.
• Coordinating the construction schedule and material deliveries.
• Cost control.
• Invoicing (includes coordination of lien waivers and punch list completions).
• Day to day teamwork with Job Superintendent and Area Supervisor with each trying to make the other person's job go as smoothly as possible.

 
Area Supervisors

A Venture Area Supervisor should provide leadership, direction and control of the field activities for five to eight projects simultaneously.

• Particular care should always be taken to spend more time with weaker Superintendents and less time with more seasoned personnel realizing that it is mandatory that the Area Supervisor be on the job during certain phases of construction regardless of the ability of the Job Superintendent.
  
• Finding and checking property pins, checking line and grade for building lay-outs, checking plumbing and electrical stub-ups before slab pours and checking sub-surface conditions at various stages of paving operation should be of vital concern to each Area Supervisor.
  
• Teamwork is also a vital part of area supervision. Area Supervisors should strive to fully cooperate with the Project Managers and keep them informed of jobsite conditions that they might not be aware of from day to day.
