Ideal Candidate

The right person for this role is organized, accurate, and comfortable working in a fast-paced construction environment. You do not need to know everything on day one, but you should be willing to learn, ask questions, solve problems, and take ownership of the details.

You should be:

- Detail-oriented and careful with numbers
- Comfortable reading plans and specifications
- Able to communicate clearly, professionally, and respectfully in both written and spoken English
