What You’ll Be Doing as the Construction Administrator
  • Administer the construction process by reviewing submittals and shop drawings, responding to RFIs, preparing drawing revisions, and coordinating with engineering consultants.
  • Review construction documents, project construction budgets, and construction progress to support strong project outcomes.
  • Process Applications for Payment and help maintain accurate construction phase documentation.
  • Observe construction work in progress to evaluate performance against specifications and contract documents.
  • Create field reports that clearly document observations, progress, issues, and follow-up items.
  • Perform QC reviews on coordinated sets of working drawings.
  • Analyze shop drawings of varying complexity and report problems or deviations from plans and specifications to the project design team.
  • Maintain submittal logs and RFI logs to support clear communication and accountability.
  • Take a team-oriented approach to the construction process, working collaboratively with internal and external project stakeholders.
  • Mentor younger staff and lead group site visits that strengthen construction knowledge across the firm.
  • Support project teams in Orlando and surrounding markets with clear communication, organization, and attention to detail.

About You as the Construction Administrator
  • 3-6 years of experience in a CA role with an architectural firm.
  • Experience across multiple project phases, with strong knowledge of the construction phase.
  • Experience in multifamily, mixed-use, or student housing construction is strongly preferred.
  • Strong understanding of construction documents, specifications, submittals, RFIs, shop drawings, field reports, and payment applications.
  • Excellent time management, written communication, and verbal communication skills.
  • Highly organized, responsive, and able to follow through in a fast-paced project environment.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to identify issues and communicate practical solutions.
