• Maintain project and facility punch lists and drive outstanding items through completion.
• Coordinate contractor and vendor access, site visits, measurements, installations, deliveries, and other on-site activities.
• Identify potential issues, delays, or deviations from the intended design and escalate them appropriately. Vendor Research & Procurement

• Contact vendors and communicate project requirements.
• Obtain estimates, specifications, product information, pricing, and lead times.

• Organize project information, including drawings, photographs, proposals, quotes, product specifications, and vendor contacts.
• Support day-to-day facility management needs and improvement projects as they arise. Codes, Permitting & Technical Research
• Research and help interpret applicable building codes, accessibility requirements, fire and life-safety requirements, and local or state regulations when evaluating proposed facility changes.
• Apply relevant code requirements to preliminary design and facility questions when appropriate.
• Help identify potential permitting or compliance issues and coordinate questions with architects, engineers, contractors, building management, or other professionals.
• Recognize when a technical, regulatory, or professional design decision requires escalation. What We Are Looking For The ideal candidate is:
• Highly organized, dependable, and proactive.
• Comfortable taking ownership of a task and following it through to completion.
• Resourceful and able to independently research unfamiliar products, vendors, technical questions, and potential solutions.
• Comfortable communicating with contractors, vendors, architects, engineers, building staff, and internal team members.

• Able to manage multiple projects, vendors, and follow-up items simultaneously.
• Comfortable reviewing architectural drawings and basic construction documentation.
• Comfortable understanding, researching, interpreting, and applying building codes and related regulatory requirements when needed.
• Able to work independently while exercising good judgment about when decisions should be escalated.
