• Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to lead subcontractors, collaborate with project managers, and coordinate effectively with inspectors and other project partners.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office, including Microsoft Project, and the ability to maintain accurate project documentation and manage schedules.
• A valid driver's license, current automobile insurance, and a driving record that meets company insurance requirements, along with the ability to travel overnight or for extended periods as needed.
