Construction Management Representative

ASR International Corp. has an opportunity for a Construction Management Representative (CMR) role in a full‑time, on‑site capacity at Hot Springs National Park, AR, supporting a major historic rehabilitation project. This field‑based role requires approximately 40 hours per week during active construction periods and is projected to span through January 2027, with potential for additional work if option periods are exercised.

Some initial remote flexibility may be possible during project ramp‑up, to be coordinated with NPS.

This role assists in overseeing construction activities for the adaptive reuse and preservation of historic bathhouses, ensuring compliance with National Park Service contract requirements, historic preservation standards, and quality assurance protocols. The position offers the opportunity to contribute directly to preserving and revitalizing iconic historic structures while supporting high‑quality, compliant construction outcomes.

• Serve as an on‑site representative supporting the lead full‑time CMR in observing and documenting daily construction activities across multiple historic structures in downtown Hot Springs.
• Assist in ensuring the general contractor’s Quality Control (QC) Plan is implemented and functioning effectively, while the CM firm provides Quality Assurance (QA) oversight.
• Conduct regular site observations to verify compliance with contract plans, specifications, historic preservation requirements, building codes, accessibility standards, safety regulations (including OSHA), and NPS operational needs.

• Maintain professional neutrality; communicate concerns and observations promptly to the COR (not directly to park or region staff or contractor unless directed).
• Perform other QA‑related tasks as needed, including payroll/labor interviews, progress payment verification, schedule reviews, and estimating support under back‑office guidance.

• Experience using construction/project management software (e.g., Project Team, Procore, similar platforms for submittals, RFIs, photos).
