Salt Lake City, UT | $65,000+
Keep the Projects Moving. Keep the Details Sharp. Be the Person Who Makes It Happen!
Are you the kind of person who can keep a dozen moving pieces organized, solve problems before they become problems, and somehow keep everyone on the same page? Do you enjoy the fast-paced world of construction, where no two days look exactly alike and there is always something exciting happening? We’re looking for a motivated, detail-driven Project Engineer / Project Coordinator (PE/PC) to join a growing construction team in Salt Lake City!
This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys being involved in the action, thrives on organization, and wants to build a rewarding career in construction project management. You'll work alongside experienced Project Managers, Superintendents, subcontractors, vendors, and field personnel to help bring projects from planning to completion. You'll be an important part of the team, helping coordinate schedules, manage documentation, track progress, and keep the entire project operation running smoothly.
What You'll Be Doing:
-
Assist Project Managers with the planning, coordination, and execution of construction projects from start to finish.
-
Coordinate daily project activities and help keep schedules, deadlines, and deliverables on track.
-
Prepare, organize, and maintain project documentation, including contracts, submittals, RFIs, change orders, meeting minutes, and project correspondence.
-
Track submittals, shop drawings, material procurement, and approvals to ensure everything gets where it needs to be when it needs to be there.
-
Communicate with subcontractors, suppliers, architects, engineers, and internal team members to keep information flowing.
-
Assist with project budgets, cost tracking, purchase orders, invoices, and expense reporting.
-
Monitor project schedules and follow up on outstanding items before they turn into last-minute headaches.
-
Participate in project meetings, document discussions, and help ensure action items are completed.
-
Support field operations by coordinating materials, equipment, deliveries, and other project requirements.
-
Review plans, specifications, and construction documents to help identify potential conflicts or missing information.
-
Assist with change management, progress tracking, and project closeout activities.
-
Maintain accurate project records and ensure documentation is organized, accessible, and up to date.
-
Build strong working relationships with project teams and help create a collaborative, solutions-focused environment.
-
Jump in wherever needed because great project teams are built by people who are willing to roll up their sleeves!
What We're Looking For:
-
Previous experience in construction project engineering, project coordination, project administration, or a related role.
-
Construction industry knowledge and an understanding of project workflows.
-
Ability to read and interpret construction plans, specifications, and project documents.
-
Strong organizational skills with an appreciation for details, deadlines, and follow-through.
-
Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
-
Comfortable juggling multiple priorities without losing sight of the big picture.
-
Proficiency with Microsoft Office; experience with Procore, Bluebeam, or other construction management software is a plus.
-
A proactive attitude and the ability to anticipate needs rather than wait for someone to point them out.
-
Strong problem-solving skills and the confidence to ask questions, find answers, and keep things moving.
-
A team-first mindset, a positive attitude, and a genuine interest in growing within the construction industry.
Why This Opportunity?
This is more than a paperwork position! It's an opportunity to get involved in the heart of construction operations, learn from experienced industry professionals, take ownership of meaningful responsibilities, and develop the skills needed to advance your career. You'll have the opportunity to make an impact, contribute to successful projects, and become an essential part of a team that values initiative, accountability, communication, and hard work.
If you're organized but not afraid of a little chaos, detail-oriented but big-picture minded, and ready to turn your construction knowledge into something bigger, we'd love to hear from you!
Bring your energy, bring your ideas, and let's build something great!
