The Opportunity

✅ Coordinate with all consultants, manage BIM coordination, and review consultant sets before phase releases

✅ Serve as a secondary point of contact for RFIs, submittals, and project correspondence, and maintain RFI and submittal logs

✅ Support construction administration, including shop drawing review, site meetings, field reports, punch lists, and record documents at closeout

✅ Attend client meetings, prepare meeting minutes, and give technical guidance to less experienced colleagues

Strong design, communication, and organizational skills, with the ability to work both independently and collaboratively

Why This Role

Work on high-profile residential, hospitality, commercial, and adaptive-reuse projects that add long-term value to your portfolio
