• Develop, track, and adjust project budgets, cost codes, and financial records to maintain visibility into project performance.
• Coordinate contract-related documentation, including prime agreements, subcontracts, purchase orders, and bonding requirements when applicable.
• Manage submittals, change events, change orders, invoices, owner billings, lien documentation, and other project administration deliverables.
• Build and maintain project schedules, organize required meetings, and communicate updates with owners, general contractors, field teams, and other partners.
• Review drawings, specifications, addenda, and contract front-end documents to identify scope details, risk items, and compliance considerations.
• Oversee punch list completion, as-built documentation, and closeout activities to ensure projects are finalized accurately and on time.
• Support quality assurance, quality control, safety awareness, and strong working relationships with internal teams, clients, and trade partners.
• Contribute to business growth by strengthening existing customer relationships and helping identify new project opportunities.

• Minimum of 3 years of experience in construction project coordination, estimating, project management, or a related project analyst function.

• Demonstrated knowledge of construction documents, plans, specifications, scheduling, estimating, and pre-construction processes.

• Strong ability to manage multiple priorities, solve problems effectively, and maintain a high level of accuracy in a fast-paced setting.

• Clear written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to work collaboratively across office and field teams.

• Willingness to take ownership of assigned work and operate with sound judgment and initiative.

• Familiarity with construction contract administration, billing processes, change management, and project closeout procedures.

• OSHA 10 and OSHA 30 certifications are preferred.

• Degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Design, or a related field is a plus.

Benefits:

  • PTO
  • Medical
  • Dental
  • Vision
