• Assist with preconstruction planning, procurement tracking, and subcontractor coordination

• Perform light executive assistant responsibilities such as calendar coordination, task tracking, and internal communication

• Organize internal reporting systems to maintain up-to-date project progress visibility

• Ensure accuracy and consistency in logs, schedules, and quality control documentation

• Take initiative to streamline workflows and improve project tracking processes

Qualifications:

• 2–5 years of construction experience in a project engineering or coordination role

• Associate’s or Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or related field preferred

• Familiarity with Procore and other construction management tools

• Previous experience on multifamily, podium, or large-scale renovation projects preferred

• Excellent organizational and time management skills

• Strong written and verbal communication skills

• Ability to work independently and support senior leadership

• High attention to detail and problem-solving mindset

Compensation & Benefits:

• Salary range: $80,000 – $100,000/year based on experience

• 2 weeks PTO

• Long-term growth opportunity within a high-touch, entrepreneurial team
