• Participate in project meetings and communicate with owners, subcontractors, and internal teams.
• Assist with project financials, including subcontractor buyout, change orders, pay applications, and cost tracking, depending on experience.
• Collaborate with preconstruction and leadership teams to ensure successful project delivery.
• Build strong relationships with customers and trade partners.

• Strong communication, organization, and problem-solving skills.
• Ability to lead subcontractors and hold teams accountable.
• A hands-on, team-oriented approach with a strong work ethic.
• Experience with Procore, MS Project, or Bluebeam is helpful but not required.
• A construction management degree is not required.

We are open to candidates at multiple experience levels , including Assistant Superintendents, Field Supervisors, Project Managers, and Senior Project Managers. Responsibilities and compensation will be based on experience.
