Qualifications

•       Proven ability to run multiple trades and subcontractors concurrently in a fast-paced field environment.

•       Strong working knowledge of building codes, safety regulations (OSHA 30 ), and quality standards.

•       Excellent leadership, communication, and problem-solving skills; able to make sound decisions under field pressure.

•       Ability to read and interpret construction drawings, specifications, and contract documents.

•       OSHA 10/30 certification required; First Aid/CPR certification a plus.
