  • Coordinate meetings and provide general administrative support to the construction and development team.
  • Create PowerPoint presentations and other materials for internal meetings and presentations.
  • Communicate with vendors, contractors, consultants, and internal teams by phone and email.
  • Assist with Bluebeam and other software-related administrative needs.
  • Identify outstanding items and proactively follow up with team members to keep projects and approvals moving.
  • Take on additional administrative and project support responsibilities as needed.

Qualifications

  • 3–5+ years of administrative, project coordination, or contract support experience within the construction industry.
  • Experience supporting a general contractor, subcontractor, construction company, developer, or related organization strongly preferred.
  • Experience working with construction contracts, purchase orders, change orders, or project documentation.
  • Strong Microsoft Office skills, particularly Excel, Word, Outlook, and PowerPoint.
  • Adobe experience required.
  • Bluebeam experience highly preferred; training can be provided.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • Excellent attention to detail and organizational abilities.
  • Confident communicator who is comfortable consistently following up with managers and stakeholders.
  • Ability to manage several priorities and deadlines simultaneously.
  • Self-directed and comfortable working independently with limited supervision.
  • Professional, dependable, and responsive.
  • Associate’s or Bachelor’s degree preferred, or equivalent relevant experience.


Perks

  • Contract-to-hire opportunity
  • Work directly with a construction and development team
  • Opportunity to gain additional experience with contracts, change orders, purchase orders, and project administration
  • Exposure to construction project operations and senior leadership
  • Long-term growth potential
