• Develop and maintain short-term schedules to keep projects on track.
• Monitor daily progress and identify potential delays or obstacles.
• Coordinate manpower, materials, equipment, and onsite activities to support project schedules.
• Communicate project updates, challenges, and potential solutions to the project management team.
• Coordinate subcontractors and other trades as needed to maintain workflow and minimize disruptions.

• Monitor jobsite quality and ensure work is completed according to project plans, specifications, and company standards.
• Identify, document, and manage punch list items through completion.
• Conduct regular jobsite inspections to identify quality concerns or potential issues.
• Ensure job sites remain clean, organized, and ready for ongoing work and inspections.

• Promote and maintain a safe work environment for all employees, subcontractors, and visitors.
• Ensure compliance with OSHA requirements, company safety policies, and project-specific safety procedures.
• Conduct or participate in regular safety meetings and jobsite inspections.
• Address unsafe conditions and practices promptly.

• 4+ years of hands-on experience in commercial construction, renovation, or a related field, with demonstrated ability to lead crews and coordinate daily job-site activities.
• Strong knowledge of commercial construction methods, processes, and practices.
• Experience managing multiple active job sites and coordinating crews and trades.
• Strong leadership and communication skills.
• Ability to make decisions and effectively solve problems in changing jobsite conditions.
• Ability to read and understand construction plans, specifications, and project documents.
• Strong understanding of jobsite safety and OSHA requirements.
• Organized, dependable, and comfortable working in a fast-paced construction environment.
• Willingness and ability to perform hands-on construction work alongside crews when needed.
