We are seeking a highly organized and proactive Construction Project Coordinator to join our clients in Edmonton. This is a pivotal role for an experienced professional who excels at bridging the gap between the field and the office.

The successful candidate will provide comprehensive administrative and operational support, ensuring that our diverse portfolio of projects is delivered on time, within budget, and to the highest quality standards. You will be the "glue" of the project team, maintaining clear communication across all stakeholders and ensuring no detail falls through the cracks.

Key Responsibilities

  • Project Oversight & Scheduling: Coordinate day-to-day on-site activities and work closely with Site Superintendents to ensure adherence to the Master Project Schedule. Proactively identify potential delays and assist in developing mitigation strategies.

  • Stakeholder Liaison: Act as a primary point of contact for subcontractors, vendors, and consultants. Facilitate the Request for Information (RFI) process and manage the distribution of site instructions and change orders.

  • Comprehensive Documentation: Prepare, organize, and maintain all project-related records, including meeting minutes, daily logs, submittals, and progress reports. Ensure the "as-built" documentation is accurately tracked throughout the project lifecycle.

  • Financial Tracking: Assist Project Managers in monitoring project costs against the budget. Track quantities, review subcontractor invoices for accuracy, and assist in the preparation of monthly progress claims.

  • Safety & Compliance: Promote a culture of safety by monitoring job site compliance with Alberta OHS regulations and company-specific safety policies. Assist in organizing safety meetings and maintaining safety certifications/documentation.

Qualifications & Skills

  • Education: Post-secondary Diploma or Degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering Technology, or a related technical field.

  • Experience: A minimum of 3–5 years of hands-on experience in a coordination or junior management role within the Edmonton construction market (Commercial or Industrial experience preferred).

  • Technical Proficiency: Advanced skills in Microsoft Office (Excel, Project) and industry-standard construction management software (e.G., Procore, Bluebeam, or Sage).

  • Communication: Exceptional verbal and written communication skills with the ability to navigate complex conversations with diverse stakeholders.

  • Local Knowledge: A solid understanding of local Edmonton building codes, permitting processes, and seasonal weather-related scheduling challenges.

  • Core Competencies: Strong multitasking abilities, a high level of attention to detail, and a "solutions-oriented" mindset
