Job Summary

We are currently hiring Project Coordinators.

We would expect that PCs and PMs, are able to help scope, coordinate the delivery of resources and schedule labour for different jobs; while ensuring the projects are being completed on time and within budget.





PCs and PMs will need to communicate internally with the estimating, purchasing and design teams to ensure project elements are coming together and discuss site challenges and help crews set up and troubleshoot issues as they arise. PCs and PMs will also need to communicate externally to clients helping answer questions about job status or handle changes as they arise.

Finally, PCs and PMs will need to help ensure that all relevant billing for jobs is being processed with the accounting team, ensuring that costing for the jobs is complete.
