Assistant Project Coordinator

Now Hiring: Assistant Project Coordinator

Boyd Jones is a growing general contractor with deep roots in Nebraska and Iowa and an expanding presence across the region. We build with purpose—commercial, industrial, and specialty construction projects that matter to our clients and the communities we serve. Our Urbandale office is growing, and we’re looking for an organized, detail-oriented professional to join the team as an Assistant Project Coordinator.

This is a part-time role (approx. 20-25 hours/week) added in response to our continued growth in the Des Moines market. You’ll work directly alongside our Project Coordinator to keep projects organized, compliant, and moving- making a real impact from day one.

This is a part-time position designed for someone who thrives in a structured, project-focused environment and is looking to build real-world construction experience alongside a collaborative team.

What You’ll Do

• Keep project documentation organized, current, and audit-ready—contracts, submittals, RFIs, logs, and executed agreements.
• Coordinate communication between our internal team, clients, subcontractors, and vendors.
• Support meeting scheduling, agenda prep, and action item tracking.
• Track compliance documentation—insurance certificates, bonds, licenses—and flag gaps promptly.
• Assist with subcontractor and vendor onboarding documentation.
• Support contract setup in Procore and Sage, and assist with project closeout activities.
  
  

What You Bring

• 0–3 years of experience in project coordination, administrative support, or a related field; construction experience is a plus but not required.
• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail—you catch things others miss.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office; experience with Procore or similar platforms is a bonus.
• Clear written and verbal communication skills with a professional, service-oriented approach.
• An associate or bachelor’s degree in Business, Construction Management, or a related field is preferred; relevant experience is equally considered.
  
  

Why Boyd Jones

• We’re a team that genuinely values partnership, stewardship, and continuous improvement—these aren’t just words on a wall.
• You’ll have real responsibility and visibility from the start, not just busy work.
• Collaborative culture with experienced construction professionals who invest in developing their team.
  
  

If you’re organized, eager to learn, and want to contribute to a team that builds with purpose—we’d love to hear from you.
