  • Maintain centralized project folders, ensuring all fiber splicing records, test results, and site photos are organized and accessible.

  • Prepare client invoices, track billing against the SOW, and proactively identify when funding increases are required based on field Production.

  • Verify and track subcontractor invoices against revenue records to ensure the integrity of operational margin.

  • Prepare and distribute daily/weekly production reports to management, highlighting milestones achieved and potential bottlenecks.

  • Act as a professional liaison between the company, clients, and local authorities to resolve issues regarding construction schedules or permit delays.

  • Identify potential project risks (e.g., permit delays or print discrepancies) and work with the Fiber Construction Operations Manager to develop mitigation strategies.

  • Ensure all project documentation adheres to company safety standards and regulatory compliance protocols.

  • Troubleshoot homeowner complaints and schedule work order resolutions.
