Binghamton University invites applications for the position of Construction Project Site Coordinator within the Department of Facilities Management, Planning & Construction. This role offers the opportunity to play a key part in delivering impactful capital projects across a growing campus, including building renovations, infrastructure upgrades, and new construction initiatives. Serving as a University on-site representative, the selected candidate will oversee day-to-day construction activities, on multiple simultaneous projects, to ensure projects are completed in accordance with design intent, within budget, schedule, and quality standards.

This highly collaborative, field-oriented role works closely with Facilities Management staff, University architects and engineers, internal and external stakeholders, contractors, consultants, and partnering external agencies such as the State University Construction Fund (SUCF) and the Dormitory Authority of the State of New York (DASNY).

Ideal candidates will bring a background in construction management, site supervision, architecture, and/or engineering, along with field experience, communication skills, and the ability to coordinate multiple stakeholders in an owner's representative environment.
