  • Help prepare submittals and track RFI logs, routing items to the appropriate team members and following up on responses.
Reporting Support
  • Assist in compiling data for weekly/monthly project status reports (schedule updates, cost tracking, milestone status).
  • Update project management software/trackers with current schedule, cost, and deliverable information.
  • Help prepare slides, charts, and summary materials for internal and client/owner reporting, under Project Manager review.
Administration & Coordination
  • Coordinate meeting scheduling, agendas, and minutes for project meetings as assigned.
  • Serve as a point of contact for routine document requests from field teams, subcontractors, and vendors.
  • Support onboarding of new subcontractors/vendors (documentation collection, system setup).
  • Perform other project administration tasks as assigned by the Project Manager.
Required Qualifications
  • 1–3 years of experience in project management, project engineering, or construction administration; internship or co-op experience in construction/energy considered.
