Job Posting:

Pre-Construction & Permits Coordinator Job Type:

Full-Time Experience Level:

Mid-level (3-5 years preferred) About Us At Oasis Homes we pride ourselves on exceptional quality, architectural integrity, and a seamless client experience. We are looking for a detail-oriented, highly organized Pre-Construction & Permits Coordinator to join our team and serve as the critical bridge between initial design concepts and breaking ground. Position Overview As our Pre-Construction & Permits Coordinator, you will own the critical "phase one" of our custom home projects. You will navigate local zoning laws, secure building permits, coordinate with architects and engineers, and ensure our field teams have everything they need to start construction on time and on budget. If you love architecture, thrive on organization, and get a weird amount of satisfaction from turning chaos into a perfectly ordered binder of approved permits, we want to talk to you.

Key Responsibilities Permit Management:

Prepare, submit, and track all necessary building, zoning, environmental, and utility permits across various local municipalities.

HOA & Architectural Review:

Manage submissions and approvals for Homeowners Associations (HOAs) and local architectural review boards.

Subcontractor & Vendor Liaison:

Gather and compile site plans, engineering reports, and architectural drawings required for municipal review.

Timeline & Tracking:

Maintain an up-to-date schedule of all projects in the pre-construction pipeline, proactively identifying and resolving potential municipal delays.

Utility Coordination:

Coordinate with local utility companies (water, power, gas, sewer) for new service connections, disconnects, and site readiness.

Client & Team Communication:

Provide regular, clear updates to internal Project Managers and custom home clients regarding permit status and estimated start dates.

What We Are Looking For Experience:

3-5+ years of experience in residential construction administration, architecture, or working directly within a municipal building department.

Local Knowledge:

Strong familiarity with building codes, zoning ordinances, and permitting processes is a massive plus.

Blueprint Literacy:

Ability to read and interpret architectural blueprints, site plans, and engineering drawings.

Tech-Savvy:

Proficiency with construction project management software and Microsoft Office/Google Workspace. The "Soft"

Skills:

Exceptional communication skills. You need to be equally comfortable talking to a high-end custom home client, an engineer, or a grumpy city inspector.

Problem-Solver:

A resilient attitude. When a municipality becomes difficult, you don't sweat—you find the solution.
