• Support the allocation of resources across multiple projects, including labor, equipment, and materials, coordinating deliveries and logistics ensuring that team members are equipped to meet project demands. Assist in the identification and resolution of resource constraints or conflicts. Manage project-related budgets and timelines with a focus on optimizing resources to improve efficiency.
• Prepare and distribute project reports and status updates to project stakeholders, including progress reports, milestone tracking, and risk assessments, ensuring transparency and accountability throughout the project lifecycle.
• Assist in monitoring project budgets, tracking expenses, and reporting on financial performance, identifying variances and contributing to cost control efforts.
• Identify and assess project risks, such as safety hazards, schedule delays, and budget overruns, developing risk mitigation strategies and contingency plans to minimize impacts on project outcomes.
• Manage change requests and variations to project scope, assessing impacts on schedule, cost, and resources, and coordinating with stakeholders to implement approved changes.
• Monitor and enforce quality control standards and procedures, conducting inspections and audits to ensure workmanship and materials meet project specifications and industry standards. Establish and enforce quality control measures across all stages of the project lifecycle to ensure high-quality outcomes.
• Closely monitor project spend against budget, identifying discrepancies, and initiating corrective actions as needed to avoid budget overruns.

Job Knowledge & Skills

• Understanding of construction processes, terminology, and industry standards to effectively coordinate project activities and communicate with stakeholders.
• Proficiency in project management software tools such as Microsoft Project or Primavera P6 to create schedules, track progress, and manage project documentation efficiently.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills to liaise with clients, contractors, and team members, facilitating effective collaboration and ensuring project requirements are understood and met.
