• Coordinate and oversee contractors, vendors, engineers, and inspectors to ensure quality workmanship and compliance with project requirements.
• Apply practical knowledge of mechanical systems, construction methods, and building operations to identify issues early and drive effective solutions.
• Conduct site visits to monitor progress, verify work in place, and support field decision-making.
• Use Google Sheets and other digital tools to track budgets, timelines, change orders, and project documentation.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with internal teams (ownership, operations, finance, leasing) to align project outcomes with business objectives.
• Maintain organized project records, contracts, and close-out documentation.
• Evaluate completed projects and recommend process or cost-efficiency improvements for future work.
• Travel periodically to project sites across North Carolina.

Requirements:

• Proven experience managing projects within construction, facilities, commercial real estate, or property development environments.
• Strong mechanical and construction aptitude with the ability to understand drawings, scopes of work, and building systems.
• Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to make sound, real-time decisions in the field.
• Strong communication and coordination skills with contractors, vendors, and internal stakeholders.
• Proficiency in Google Workspace, particularly Google Sheets for budgeting and project tracking.
• Demonstrated ability to manage multiple projects, budgets, and deadlines simultaneously.
• Highly organized, detail-oriented, and accountable.

Preferred Qualifications
