Easy Apply now by clicking the "Easy Apply" button and sending us your resume. Salary $210,000 - $250,000 per year A Bit About Us We are working with a great full-service construction management firm that handles facilities construction — Heavily with schools and other public-works projects. Their services cover all phases of a project’s lifecycle pre-design/planning, design review, estimating and budgeting, scheduling, construction management, document control, closeout and commissioning. This will be a great opportunity for someone looking to join a great established organization Why join us? Strong job security and demand — The construction-management sector tends to have steady demand. As building, renovation, and public-works projects continue, firms like this often stay busy, which can translate into job stability. Meaningful, tangible work and sense of accomplishment — One of the advantages of working in construction management is seeing real, physical results of your work — completed buildings, schools, infrastructure, etc. — which can be personally rewarding and satisfying. Diverse and varied day-to-day work — Rather than a repetitive office-only job, construction management involves many different tasks planning, coordination, oversight, problem-solving, managing budgets and schedules, working with designers/contractors. That variety can keep things interesting. Opportunities for career growth and skill development — In this field, there is potential to move up — taking on larger projects, more responsibility, mastering different aspects of construction, maybe even shifting into high-level management Working on impactful and community-benefiting projects — Because firms like this often work on public-works projects and facilities (schools, infrastructure), employees get to contribute to community-oriented, meaningful work. That can add a sense of purpose beyond just “another job.” Based on the type of work described earlier for the firm you asked about. The firm offers benefits such as health insurance, retirement/401(k), paid time off, maybe life/disability insurance Job Details We are seeking a detail-driven Public Works Construction Administrator to support and manage the full lifecycle of public-works projects—from bidding and compliance through contract administration and ongoing project requirements.

Edit and prepare documents using Bluebeam or Adobe, and work confidently in Microsoft and Google Suites. Assist with operational tasks such as fleet registration renewals and distribution of insurance documents and fuel cards.
