- Prepare and submit RFIs, change-order documentation and supporting photos or videos.
- Monitor workmanship, productivity, cleanliness and jobsite safety.
- Verify completed work against the plans, scope and client expectations.
- Maintain control of punch lists, inspections, corrections and project closeout.

The Right Candidate
The right person is an experienced Construction Project Manager who understands how work should be performed, can confidently lead crews and safety meetings, and can use video as a professional project-management and training tool.
We are not looking for a video editor who needs to be taught construction. We are also not looking for a construction manager who cannot professionally capture, edit and organize video.
This position requires both construction leadership and practical video-production ability. We look forward to hearing from you!
