- Work in conjunction with the Project Manager to develop and maintain detailed project schedules, translating the overarching schedule into actionable short‑interval and look‑ahead plans for field execution
- Coordinate trade sequencing, material deliveries, and equipment needs to minimize downtime and maintain project momentum
- Provide the Project Manager with timely field updates on progress, productivity, and any condition that may impact the schedule or budget
- Proactively identify scheduling conflicts, constructability issues, and potential delays, and communicate recommended solutions to the PM for resolution
- Attend regular project coordination meetings with the PM, including owner, architect, and contractor meetings as needed, to field questions and report on project progress from a field perspective
- Serve as the primary field point contact for all subcontractors and trade partners on site, managing day‑to‑day working relationships and resolving field‑level conflicts
