  • Maintain subcontractor and vendor contact records.
  • Track insurance certificates, contracts, W-9s, and other required documentation.
  • Enter daily logs, meeting notes, project updates, and internal communications.
  • Track material selections, approvals, lead times, and delivery dates.
  • Assist with warranty items, punch-list tasks, and project closeout documentation.
  • Prepare weekly Buildertrend reports for management.
  • Review every active project regularly to identify missing information, overdue tasks, or administrative issues.
  • Communicate with project managers to ensure Buildertrend reflects what is happening in the field.
  • Help create and maintain standardized Buildertrend templates, workflows, checklists, and operating procedures.

  • Bilingual proficiency in English and Spanish.
  • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.
  • Ability to manage multiple active construction projects simultaneously.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • Comfortable following up with team members, vendors, and subcontractors.
  • Ability to work independently and meet deadlines without constant supervision.
  • Proficiency with Google Workspace, Microsoft Office, PDF documents, and cloud-based file systems.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience supporting a general contractor, homebuilder, construction manager, or real estate developer.
