On-siteAdministrative$22–$25/hrFull-time

About the Role

We're looking for a Project Assistant who can be a true swiss army knife — someone who thrives on variety and isn't afraid to wear a lot of hats. This is a unique opportunity to split your time supporting both our Residential and Commercial New Construction teams, giving you broad exposure across the business and a front-row seat to how projects come together from both sides. You'll work closely with Project Coordinators and Project Managers in each department, providing the administrative backbone that keeps jobs moving — from inspections and job packets to project documentation and day-to-day problem solving. If you're organized, adaptable, and energized by a role that changes day to day, this is a great way to build a foundation in construction administration with a company that's growing fast and promotes from within.

What You'll Do

  • Receive inspection requests and coordinate with municipalities to schedule inspections for the Residential & Commercial teams
  • Create job folders and packets — print plans and build job packets for Construction Coordinators to complete project takeoffs
  • Track builder portals for required project documents (cabinet plans, appliance specs, spec books) to ensure the field has everything needed to complete projects
  • Assist vendor delivery drivers with directions or access to jobsites as needed
  • Take on miscellaneous projects and duties across the Residential & Commercial Department
  • Provide a flexible, go-to resource for both departments as needs arise

Requirements

  • High school diploma or equivalent required
  • 1 year of office experience preferred (construction experience is not required — we'll teach you the trade side)
  • Valid driver's license
  • Strong communication skills, both written and verbal
  • A proactive, detail-oriented, "figure it out" mindset
  • Comfortable multitasking and shifting priorities across two busy departments
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office

Compensation

$22 - 25hr (Based on Experience)

Benefits

  • Health Care Plan (Medical, Dental & Vision)
  • Retirement Plan (401k, IRA)
  • Life Insurance (Basic, Voluntary & AD&D)
  • Paid Time Off (Vacation, Sick & Public Holidays)
  • Family Leave (Maternity, Paternity)
  • Short Term & Long Term Disability
  • Training & Development
  • Work From Home
  • Wellness Resources

Schedule

  • PTO + Sick Days + Paid Holidays
  • Work From Home Flexibility + Flexible Hours
