  • Coordinate deliveries, DOB/FDNY inspections, material procurement, and trade sequencing
  • Keep daily field reports, safety logs, and site documentation current
  • Flag RFIs and change order opportunities and loop in the PM
  • Enforce OSHA, NYC SST, and prevailing wage requirements on site
  • Manage relationships with clients, consultants, and GCs on site

Qualifications
