- A diploma or education in a related discipline
- Sound knowledge of Microsoft Office 365 and Sharepoint
- Ability to understand and interpret Contract Documents and Drawings

- Understanding of the Occupational Health and Safety Act and Construction Regulations, along with OTC Book 7 and traffic control measures
- Strong coordination and organizational skills
- High attention to detail and accuracy
- Determination to set and manage priorities to meet all deadlines
