• Providing support to construction inspectors and contract administrators in the field and office to gain familiarity with construction techniques and challenges.
• Working under the guidance of project managers and management staff across the company to develop design skills and ensure design quality standards are met.
• Collaborating with and contributing to multi-office project teams to ensure project delivery successfully meets the needs of clients.
