Boutique Recruiting

Administrative Assistant

Be the person who keeps a busy construction office moving forward. We are seeking an organized, proactive Administrative Assistant to support the day-to-day operations of an established federal construction contractor. This role will work closely with the President, Office Manager, and project teams, handling everything from subcontractor documentation and scheduling to onboarding, office coordination, and administrative support. With exposure across operations, accounting, HR and project administration, this is an opportunity to build a career rather than stay boxed into a traditional administrative role.

The ideal candidate has at least one year of administrative experience within the construction industry and knows how to confidently follow up, stay organized and get information from busy people without letting details fall through the cracks.

Follow up with subcontractors to collect closeout documents, certified payroll documentation, and other required project information

Support the Office Manager with administrative responsibilities and gradually assist with accounts payable, accounts receivable, and invoicing functions

Coordinate calendars, schedule interviews, and provide administrative support for recruiting and employee onboarding

Order equipment, coordinate laptop setup, and help new employees gain access to Procore, Microsoft applications, and other internal systems

Manage incoming calls, scheduling, office supplies, and general clerical needs to keep daily operations running smoothly

Coordinate with the company's IT provider, including assisting employees with help desk tickets and technology-related requests

Assist with website project updates, confidential HR information, and additional administrative projects as needed

1+ years of administrative experience within the construction industry

  • Experience working for a general contractor or subcontractor and an understanding of how construction teams operate
  • Confident communication skills and the tact to work effectively with project managers, superintendents, subcontractors and senior leadership
  • High level of discretion and professionalism when handling confidential employee, HR and compensation information
  • Procore, QuickBooks, or certified payroll exposure is preferred but not required

Company-paid employee health insurance premiums with 50% coverage toward dependent premiums through a PPO plan

  • Short-term and long-term disability coverage and a $50,000 life insurance policy
  • 11 paid holidays
