About Hernandez
Hernandez Development & Construction is a Florida real estate and construction platform working across industrial, commercial, and self-storage assets. The company’s work includes development, construction, asset management, investor relations, HR, IT, accounting and finance, marketing, and business operations.
The Opportunity
We are looking for an early-career Executive Projects and Operations Coordinator to work directly with a senior executive involved in several parts of the business. This is not a traditional administrative or calendar-management role.
The position is for a sharp, curious person who wants to learn how a growing real estate and construction company operates from the inside. You will help move priority projects forward, research unfamiliar topics, organize information, prepare useful business materials, and support practical improvements across different teams.
You will not be expected to know everything on day one. You will be expected to learn quickly, use the resources available, think through problems, and bring back clear work that helps leadership make decisions and keep momentum.
What You Will Do
- Support special projects and priority initiatives across marketing, HR, IT, finance, asset management, and business operations.
- Take incomplete questions or requests, identify what information is missing, research reliable sources, and prepare a concise summary with recommended next steps.
- Build and maintain project trackers, research briefs, spreadsheets, presentations, reference materials, and simple dashboards.
- Help organize business information, project documents, shared files, and operating resources so teams can find what they need quickly.
- Use approved AI tools to improve research, first drafts, information organization, and repeatable work, while reviewing outputs for accuracy.
- Learn the company’s technology and business processes over time, then help identify simple ways to improve clarity, follow-through, and efficiency.
- Coordinate with team members and outside partners to gather information, clarify open items, and keep defined projects moving.
- Handle confidential business and employee information with maturity and discretion.
What You Will Learn
This role provides direct exposure to executive decision-making and to the different parts of a real estate and construction company. You will gain practical experience in business operations, project coordination, marketing support, internal processes, technology tools, and strategic communication.
The role is designed for someone who wants to grow into larger responsibilities. Your first priority is to become reliable in project support, research, and follow-through. As you build trust and show strong judgment, you will take on more complex work and develop deeper experience in the business areas that match your strengths.
What We Are Looking For
- Bachelor’s degree required, preferably in business, finance, communications, operations, marketing, information systems, or a related field.
- A strong new graduate or a candidate with up to three years of experience through work, internships, analyst roles, project coordination, consulting, operations, or comparable experience.
- Strong written communication, organization, attention to detail, and ability to turn information into a clear summary.
- Comfort with Microsoft 365, including Excel, PowerPoint, Word, Outlook, shared files, and online research.
- Curiosity about AI and technology. Familiarity with tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Microsoft Copilot, or similar tools is helpful, but prior technical expertise is not required.
- Ability to work through ambiguity, ask specific questions, identify practical next steps, and take ownership of assigned work.
- Good judgment about confidentiality, accuracy, and when a decision requires executive or functional-owner approval.
- Ability to work full-time, in person, in Fort Lauderdale.
This Role Is a Good Fit If You
- Like learning how a business works rather than staying in one narrow job lane.
- Enjoy taking a messy question and making it easier to understand and act on.
- Are comfortable learning new tools and using technology to work faster and more accurately.
- Want direct exposure to leadership, practical projects, and several areas of a business.
- Care about doing high-quality work without needing someone to repeat every instruction.
