Job Title: Construction Administrator

Overview

We’re looking for a highly organized, detail-driven Construction Administrator who thrives in a fast-paced environment and takes pride in keeping projects on track. In this role, you’ll act as the operational backbone of our construction projects—coordinating communication, managing documentation, and ensuring nothing slips through the cracks. If you’re proactive, dependable, and enjoy being at the center of project execution, this is a great opportunity to make a meaningful impact.


What You’ll Do

  • Manage and coordinate administrative aspects of construction projects from start to finish
  • Serve as the primary point of coordination between internal teams, clients, architects, engineers, and subcontractors
  • Maintain and organize project documentation, ensuring accuracy and compliance
  • Support project teams with scheduling, data entry, reporting, and document control
  • Utilize construction management platforms (such as Procore or Timberline) to track progress and maintain records
  • Help ensure projects stay on schedule, within scope, and aligned with client expectations

What You Bring

  • Strong proficiency in Microsoft Office (Excel, Word) and Adobe Acrobat
  • Experience with construction management software (Procore, Timberline, or similar)
  • Working knowledge of construction documentation, contracts, and compliance requirements
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to interact professionally across all levels
  • Strong attention to detail, organization, and ability to prioritize under deadlines
  • Self-starter with the ability to work both independently and within a team

Nice to Have

  • Experience supporting construction or engineering projects
  • Familiarity with general office equipment and administrative tools

Work Environment

  • Fully onsite role, Monday–Friday, first shift
  • Collaborative office environment supporting active construction projects

Why This Role
