Support project controls and help ensure critical project information is accurate and up to date
Partner closely with Project Managers, Superintendents, and Project Accountants to keep projects moving forward

Internship or professional experience supporting commercial, multifamily, mixed-use, institutional, or residential construction projects
Strong organizational skills and attention to detail
Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
Strong written and verbal communication skills
