  • Proactively identify, troubleshoot, and resolve issues or obstacles impacting construction progress, using sound judgment and problem-solving skills to minimize delays and maintain workflow.
  • Documentation, Reporting & Cost Management

  • Maintain accurate records of daily construction activities, progress updates, site conditions, and changes from the original plan.
  • Provide regular reports to project leadership and stakeholders.
  • Monitor project costs—including labor, materials, and equipment—and support budget management by identifying cost‑effective solutions.
  • Qualifications

  • Minimum secondary school diploma, a degree or diploma in civil engineering, construction management, or a related field is preferred.
  • Completion of relevant certifications, such as First Aid / CPR, Construction Safety Training Systems (CSTS), and other industry-specific certifications.
