Additionally, the Foreman is instrumental in maintaining accurate project records, sharing progress documentation promptly with the larger team. Ability to speak Spanish and/or Portuguese is extremely helpful.

The Foreman is responsible for reporting daily updates and project status to the Project Manager, and both individuals ultimately report to the Operations Manager within the organizational chain of command.
