• Proficiency with Microsoft Office, including Excel, Word, and Outlook.
• Comfortable using tablets, mobile devices, and field technology to support construction and safety activities.
• Report to work on time and be prepared to perform assigned duties throughout the scheduled workday.

• Work extended shifts of 10-12 hours when required by the project or Company.
