Construction Administrator (Architecture & Engineering)

Charlotte, NC

Be the Bridge Between Design and Construction

Some professionals design projects. Others build them.

As a Construction Administrator, you’ll make sure the vision becomes reality.

We’re partnering with a highly respected Architecture & Engineering firm that’s shaping some of the Southeast’s most impactful healthcare, education, senior living, government, and community-focused facilities. From groundbreaking to ribbon cutting, you’ll play a critical role in ensuring projects are delivered efficiently, accurately, and with the highest level of quality.

If you enjoy being in the field, solving problems in real time, collaborating with contractors and project teams, and seeing projects come to life, this is an opportunity to make a lasting impact.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Work on meaningful projects that serve communities and improve lives
• Join an established, growing A&E firm with a strong reputation throughout the Southeast
• Serve in a highly visible role with direct influence on project success
• Partner with architects, engineers, owners, and contractors on complex projects
• Enjoy long-term career growth within a collaborative, people-focused culture

Competitive Compensation, Comprehensive Benefits, And Leadership Support

Diverse project portfolio spanning healthcare, education, senior living, civic, and government facilities

What You’ll Do

As a key member of the project delivery team, you’ll help ensure construction aligns with the design intent while serving as a trusted advisor to project stakeholders throughout the construction process.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead construction administration efforts across multiple architectural and engineering projects.
• Review and process RFIs, ASIs, CCDs, proposal requests, change orders, shop drawings, and construction submittals.
• Interpret construction documents, specifications, contracts, and AIA agreements.
• Conduct field visits and site observations to monitor project progress and verify compliance with design intent.
• Track project documentation, correspondence, and construction activities through project completion.

• Participate in construction meetings and provide guidance throughout all phases of construction.
• Help bridge communication between design teams and field teams to ensure successful project execution.

CCCA (Certified Construction Contract Administrator) Certification

Who Thrives Here?

• Enjoy balancing time between the office and active construction sites
• Are proactive, organized, and solutions-oriented
• Communicate effectively with contractors, architects, engineers, and clients
• Can manage multiple projects and priorities without losing attention to detail
• Take pride in helping deliver exceptional projects from start to finish

Build Projects That Matter
