We are a woman-owned, family-run general contractor specializing in retail construction, remodels, rollouts and other commercial projects across the country. Our Project Coordinators work closely with Project Managers to keep project details organized, documented and moving forward.

We are looking for someone who communicates well, follows through, can manage multiple projects and deadlines, and notices when something is about to fall through the cracks.

• Support Project Managers in coordinating multiple active commercial construction projects from project setup through closeout.
• Set up and maintain project information, tasks, deadlines and documentation in Microsoft Teams, Planner and company systems.
• Track project schedules, subcontractor commitments, material orders, deliveries and other critical deadlines.

• Assist with permits, inspections, change orders and other project documentation.
• Help prepare client updates and maintain organized project files and records.
• Assemble project startup information and superintendent job notebooks before construction begins.
• Help compile required project closeout documentation.
• Monitor project details and communicate with the Project Manager when something is missing, late or needs attention.

What Success Looks Like Here

Successful Project Coordinators at Diamond know what is happening on their projects, keep accurate records, follow up before deadlines become problems, and communicate when something needs attention.

You do not have to know every answer, but you do need to be willing to find the answer, ask questions when needed, document the details and close the loop.

• Two weeks PTO
• Paid holidays
• 401(k)

Salary: $20 - $25 per hour
