4. Budgeting & Cost Control
   • Assist with estimating, value engineering, and project budgeting.
   • Track and analyze labor, materials, and equipment costs to maintain profitability.
   • Work closely with the team to negotiate contracts and manage subcontractor buyouts.
5. Documentation & Reporting
   • Handle submittals, RFIs (Requests for Information), change orders, and project closeouts.
   • Maintain detailed project documentation and ensure everything is organized and up to date.
   • Prepare and submit progress reports to stakeholders and clients.

   • Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, or a related field.
   • 0-3 years of experience with a General Contractor or in the field of construction.
   • Experience working with engineering consultants, architects, and subcontractors is a plus.
2. Technical Skills
   • Strong understanding of construction project planning, budgeting, and scheduling.
   • Familiarity with construction management software (Procore, PlanGrid, Bluebeam, or similar).
   • Ability to read and interpret blueprints, drawings, and engineering plans.
   • Basic knowledge of building codes, safety regulations, and permitting processes.
3. Soft Skills & Work Ethic
   • Excellent communication skills; you can coordinate with multiple teams and stakeholders.
   • Detail-oriented and organized; you love keeping projects on track and documentation in order.
   • Self-motivated and adaptable; comfortable working remotely while also traveling to project sites when needed.
