Construction Site Coordinator
1 week ago
We're a design-build company specializing in small multi-unit developments (4-12 units) across Nova Scotia. We don't just build - we've revolutionized how construction sites operate through our proprietary "Dream Site" system.
Our approach: create construction environments where trades are more productive, projects finish faster, and quality exceeds standards. Every site runs like a precision operation - organized, safe, efficient, and impressive.
We need a Construction Site Coordinator to be our daily operational leader, ensuring our innovative systems deliver results that exceed industry standards.
Why This Opportunity Is DifferentOwn a complete site operation: You'll have full daily operational control of a construction site, implementing our proven "Dream Site" systems that consistently deliver results exceeding industry standards.
Work with cutting-edge construction methods: Our standardized, modular approach means you'll master efficient systems rather than constantly firefighting. Be part of a proven model that guarantees execution quality.
Professional development path: Master innovative site management techniques that position you ahead of industry standards. Learn advanced BuilderTrend systems and proven coordination methods.
Continuous work opportunity: Strong performers move directly from project to project. With 10+ projects annually, top coordinators essentially have full-time employment through back-to-back contracts.
Results-based compensation: Your daily performance directly impacts your income. Execute consistently and earn significantly above market rates with guaranteed work pipeline.
