About the Role

We are a well-established commercial construction company with over 50 years of success. We are seeking a highly organized and detail-oriented person to fill our newly created Construction Contract Administrator role to support our project management team. This role is responsible for contract and project documentation, compliance management, work order processing, and supporting the project management team.

While we have our preferred qualifications, this position requires someone who is detail-driven, process-minded, and takes ownership of their responsibilities. You should feel confident asking clarifying questions, improving systems, and ensuring compliance at every step. We will teach you the nuances of construction if you excel at those.
