You'll manage onsite trade coordination from design through installation, oversee contractor payment applications, and own cost control and risk management across the project. The role requires you to interpret construction documents, resolve issues proactively through change orders and RFIs, and take broad accountability for overall project execution—not just your assigned trades.
This position suits someone with a construction or engineering degree, or three or more years of hands-on field or project experience. You'll need strong communication and time management skills, comfort working both independently and collaboratively, and familiarity with standard construction software like Bluebeam, SketchUp, and BIM360. A key part of the role is mentoring junior associates and modeling Holder's values on site.
Holder offers competitive compensation with an annual bonus program, paid time off, comprehensive health coverage, 401(k) matching, and shift differentials where applicable.
