• Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or related field preferred
• Strong understanding of construction processes and project lifecycle
• Experience with Procore, Autodesk Build, or similar construction management software preferred
• Proficient in Microsoft Office, especially Excel
• Strong communication, organization, and problem-solving skills
• Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment

What We’re Looking For

• Someone who can take ownership of tasks and see them through
• Comfortable working with subcontractors and keeping them accountable
• Detail-oriented but able to see the bigger picture
• Motivated to grow into a Project Manager role within 2–3 years
