  Land Development Manager Commercial Real Estate | Fort Myers, FL (Remote Option Available to Florida Residents Only) Full-Time | Monday–Friday | Competitive Pay + Bonus + Full Benefits

Bring Commercial Projects to Life—From Concept to Construction

Creighton Construction & Management is looking for a skilled Land Development Manager to join our growing team. In this role, you’ll guide commercial real estate projects from site feasibility through design, permitting, and bidding—playing a critical part in shaping new development across the U.S.

You’ll work closely with consultants, municipalities, and internal teams to keep projects on track, on budget, and moving forward. This is a hands-on management role that supports the Director of Development and interacts daily with engineers, architects, surveyors, clients, and city officials.

Location & Flexibility Our office is in Fort Myers, FL, and we strongly prefer local candidates or those open to relocation. However, we’re open to remote work for experienced professionals who bring the right expertise and independence.

Key Responsibilities

· Manage commercial development projects from feasibility through permit approvals and pre-construction

· Coordinate and lead consultants: civil engineers, architects, surveyors, traffic engineers, and more

· Develop and manage project budgets and development schedules

· Review leases and purchase and sale agreements (PSAs) to understand site requirements and critical obligations

· Lead communication with municipalities and regulatory agencies for entitlements and permitting

· Review and value-engineer site plans, architectural drawings, and civil designs

· Partner with construction, real estate, and client teams to ensure alignment and timeline execution

· Identify and mitigate risks that may impact project cost, schedule, or approvals

· Maintain clear documentation and reporting on project status, milestones, and deliverables

 What You Bring

· 4+ years of experience in commercial land development, entitlements, and permitting

· Proven experience developing and managing project budgets and schedules

· Familiarity with lease agreements and purchase & sale agreements in a development context

· Strong ability to coordinate across internal and external project teams

· Deep understanding of development regulations, agency approvals, and permitting workflows

· Proficient in reviewing architectural and civil construction documents

· Tech-savvy: proficient in Microsoft Office and experienced with Procore

· Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, Architecture, or a related field (preferred)

You’ll Stand Out If You…

· Have experience managing multiple development projects in different states

· Are confident building relationships with city officials, utility providers, and authority having jurisdiction

· Can independently manage timelines while keeping leadership well-informed

· Thrive in a fast-paced, high-accountability team environment

What We Offer

· Competitive base salary + bonus pay

· 401(k) with company match

· Full medical, dental, vision & life insurance

· Paid time off and company holidays

· A dynamic and collaborative work environment

· Opportunities for long-term career growth
