Position Summary:
This is a great opportunity for anyone looking to transition into field coordination—whether you're a new graduate, hold your NCO (National Construction Officer) certification through ACSA, or are a skilled tradesperson ready to move out of tools and into planning, sequencing, and documentation.

• Perform site walks with supervisors to monitor progress, maintain sequencing, and flag issues early
• Help read and reference construction drawings and specifications (training provided)
• Support safety tasks—PPE checks, hydration stations, and exclusion zone setup on high-traffic days
• Coordinate with layout crews, rebar teams, finishers, and engineers to prevent scope conflicts
• Schedule material and equipment deliveries in line with construction needs and timelines
• Initiate and follow up on quotes for materials, rentals, or subcontractor scopes to be processed by the office or purchasing

What We’re Looking For:

• Trades experience (formwork, rebar, finishing, or general labor) and looking to shift into a coordinator role OR
• Entry-level applicant with post-secondary education in construction, civil tech, or related field OR
• NCO-certified (ACSA) and seeking your first or next role in site management
• Comfortable being active on-site and engaged in real-time field operations
• Proven organizational skills with ability to manage documentation in real time

• Familiarity with LEM tracking systems and how they relate to cost recovery

Wage & Compensation:
