About the role
Read this part first
We're hiring the person who's going to build Visibuild's North America business.
If you're a Project Executive, Quality Director, Business Development Executive or VP Operations at a Tier 1/2 General Contractor right now, this ad is also for you. Even if you have no intention of leaving. Read it, then decide what to do with it.
The story is short. Visibuild is the quality and commissioning platform of record on the largest hyperscale data centre builds in the Asia-Pacific region. $100B+ total value of projects being delivered on the platform.
We're already inside the Tier 1 GCs delivering the world's largest hyperscalers, commercial, infrastructure and residential projects. The US is next, and we're building the team to do it.
If the rest of this is for you, keep reading. If it's not, send it to the person you respect most on your last project and tell them we said hi.
Who we're looking for
You've spent ten-plus years inside US construction. Not on the periphery. Inside.
You've sat in the room when the Cx evidence didn't add up and someone had to explain it to the client. You've watched a $400k rework bill land because a hold point got skipped three weeks ago and nobody saw it. You've inherited a project mid-stream and spent the first month trying to find out where the records live.
You know the difference between a quality module bolted onto a PM platform and a quality system that actually holds up at Level 5 sign-off. You have opinions about it.
You're tired of the gap between what project clients ask for and what the tools on most jobs are built to do. You think the industry deserves better than spreadsheets the night before substantial completion.
You don't need to have sold software before. You do need to be the person who, when you walk onto a project campus, knows which super is running the job and what they care about. That's the network we're hiring.
What you'll actually do
You will be the US leader for Visibuild. Not a sales hire. A market builder.
In the first six months you'll do three things.
Open the rooms we can't. Warm introductions into Tier 1 mission critical GCs, mid-market specialists, and the developers funding hyperscalers and major projects across the US. The relationships you've built over 10+ years are the asset. We bring the platform, the proof, and the scale stats. You bring the trust.
Run the first pilots yourself. Visibuild's Customer Success team will build the project instance with the customer. You'll be in the room from the first conversation to the first inspection. The Project Executive on the pilot needs to know you, not just the logo on the deck.
Tell us what the US actually needs. We have a strong opinion about how this should land. We also know we're not on the ground. You'll shape the playbook, the materials, and the next two hires under you.
Phase two, you scale.
What you'll have
A platform that the most demanding builds on the planet already run on. Real proof, real numbers, named customers we can introduce you to. The full backing of a profitable AU business that's not betting the company on this. The capital, the engineering, and a team that delivers.
Unlimited subs on every project. No paywall for trades. The architectural answer to the problem you've watched general-purpose tools fail at on every hyperscale job you've worked on.
A compensation structure that reflects early-team status. We'll talk about the number when we talk.
The honest part
Brand awareness is in its infancy in the US right now. The first six conversations will need you to carry credibility on your own name before the proof points land. We have a UK template that worked. We have a CEO, a CRO, and an extended support network that will be in your corner as you build. We have customers who'll take a call. But the early weeks are you in rooms doing what you've always done.
The market doesn't know us yet. The Tier 1s we want to land have been pitched by every construction tech company on the planet. The reason this works is that we have something they actually don't have, and you're the one who knows how to prove it.
How to apply
Don't send a resume. Send us a note answering two questions:What's the single biggest quality failure you've seen on a project in the last five years?
Where do you think the next big quality failure in the US project landscape will come from?
One message. Your name and when you'd be available to chat. Send it to [email protected] with subject line GM US: [your name] . We read every one.
If you're not the person but you know who is, forward this. We'll thank you properly when they land.
