  • 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.

  • 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.
