Commercial Construction Project Assistant in Folsom

Job DescriptionJob Description

Overview

Are you ready to support impactful commercial construction projects that shape how businesses and communities thrive in Northern California? At TI Builders, we specialize in commercial tenant improvements and build-outs, transforming outdated spaces into modern, functional environments for retail, office, medical, and more.

With almost 40 years of proven experience, we’ve built our reputation on quality, innovation, and the ability to rethink and rebuild spaces from the ground up. As we expand throughout the state of California, we’re seeking a Project Assistant based in Sacramento, CA, to help drive successful project execution and support our teams in delivering exceptional results.

The Project Assistant supports the planning, coordination, and execution of commercial tenant improvement projects. This role is essential to ensuring projects run smoothly, documentation is accurate, and communication among stakeholders remains clear and effective. The ideal candidate is detail-oriented, proactive, and excited to grow within a fast-paced construction environment.

This is not an entry-level coordination role—it’s suited for someone who understands how commercial projects move, anticipates needs proactively, and contributes to keeping projects on track from preconstruction through delivery.

What You’ll Own

·       Support preconstruction and estimating workflows including take-offs, bid documentation, and material pricing

·       Drive subcontractor communication—bid coverage, follow-ups, and scope clarification

·       Conduct site walks and capture on-the-ground insights that inform project planning

·       Maintain clean, organized, and up-to-date project documentation across all phases

·       Document project progress visually (photo/video) from preconstruction through completion

What You Bring

·       3+ years of experience in commercial construction support, estimating, or project coordination

·       Solid understanding of tenant improvement (TI) projects and commercial build workflows

·       Strong communication skills—clear, concise, and professional across stakeholders

·       Ability to manage multiple priorities without constant oversight

·       High accountability—you take ownership and follow through

·       Sound judgment—you know when to move forward independently and when to escalate

Tools & Systems

·       Microsoft Office (required)

·       Experience with Dropbox, Monday.com, or similar project/workflow tools ()

Profile We’re Targeting

·       Self-sufficient operator who doesn’t wait for direction

·       Organized and detail-oriented without losing sight of deadlines

·       Calm under pressure and solution-focused when issues arise

·       Comfortable working across multiple projects simultaneously
