Midion is seeking a Project Coach to join our team and help construction project teams improve collaboration, planning, reliability, and project outcomes through Lean Construction principles and coaching.

The Project Coach is a developing, consulting, and coaching role for someone eager to learn, comfortable in dynamic project environments, and motivated to grow into an independent project coach. You will work alongside experienced Midion coaches, learning through a combination of project immersion, structured training, observation, co-facilitation, reflection, and increasingly independent client work.

Our development approach is intentionally hands-on:

• Build strong relationships and trust with project leaders, trade partners, and project team members.
