  • Provide actionable solutions to enhance project profitability.
  • Complete and submit competitive project bids in line with established guidelines.

  • Follow safety protocols and wear PPE when necessary.
  • Frequent interaction with team members and clients.
  • Ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines.
