What You’ll Be Doing:

As a Construction Intern, you'll play a key role in assisting our Project Managers and Project Engineers to ensure that a full range of construction activities are completed successfully and efficiently. Construction Interns work in unison with a specific project team through various stages of an active construction project.

Major Objectives:

Project Shadowing: Work closely with a Project Manager to understand the day-to-day responsibilities of overseeing the execution, communication, and teamwork it takes to complete a construction project.

On-Site Experience: Visit construction sites and help track project progress – see how plans become reality and how challenges are managed. Traveling to your specific job site will be a part of your internship experience.

Team Collaboration: Support construction team with subcontractor coordination, material tracking, file management, document control, and progress reporting.

Documentation Duties: Help maintain project documentation, including contracts, change orders, and reports – stay organized and keep everything on track.
