SBR Jobs recruits construction leadership across the Inland Empire, from Ontario, Rancho Cucamonga and Fontana to Riverside, Corona, San Bernardino, Redlands, Moreno Valley, Perris, Temecula, the High Desert and the Coachella Valley. Specialized direct-hire recruiting for construction management, project managers to presidents, since 1997.
Inland Empire hiring: the biggest industrial and homebuilding market in the state
Riverside and San Bernardino counties carry more industrial and logistics construction than any market in the country, and more new home construction than anywhere else in Southern California. Distribution centers, cold storage and manufacturing along the 10, 15, 60 and 215 corridors in Ontario, Fontana, Rialto, Redlands, Moreno Valley, Perris and Beaumont. Master planned communities and production housing in Eastvale, Menifee, Temecula, Murrieta, Lake Elsinore, the High Desert and the Coachella Valley. Hospital expansions, schools, water and transportation programs, and the airport and rail work that keeps the goods moving.
The hiring problem is distance and depth. Many of the builders working the Inland Empire are headquartered in Orange County or Los Angeles, and the superintendents and project managers who will actually commute to Perris or Victorville every day are a smaller group than the postings assume. The best of them live inland, know the jurisdictions, and move between a short list of builders who already know each other. We have recruited them since 1997.

What Inland Empire construction leaders earn
Inland Empire pay sits a step below the coast for the same title, but the gap closes fast for superintendents and project managers who have delivered large industrial programs or run master planned communities, and for land and purchasing leaders at the active homebuilders. We benchmark every search against the live offers we are seeing inland, not against Orange County numbers.
