Construction Project Coordinator
Purchasing, Estimating & Scheduling
About the position
We are seeking an organized, customer-focused Construction Project Coordinator to guide prospective
customers from first contact through estimating, proposals, follow-up, and closing the sale. Once the
proposal and contract are finalized, you’ll coordinate a smooth transition to the assigned Project
Manager and continue supporting our two Project Managers with purchasing, scheduling, and project
coordination. The coordinator also maintains accurate budgets and project information in Buildertrend to help keep jobs
moving.
Key responsibilities
Customer contact: Respond to new inquiries, conduct initial client meetings and site visits, document
project goals and scope, and maintain professional communication.
Estimates and proposals: Prepare rough estimates and preliminary proposals, gather supplier and
subcontractor pricing, and develop final proposals for management review and approval.
Customer follow-up and sales: Present proposals, answer questions, coordinate revisions, and follow up
through customer acceptance and contract signing within company approval procedures.
Project handoff: Transfer the signed contract, approved scope, estimate, budget, selections, customer
commitments, and outstanding items to the assigned Project Manager.
Purchasing: Obtain quotes, prepare purchase orders, order approved materials, and track deliveries.
Identify long-lead items early and resolve shortages, returns, and order issues.
Scheduling support: Maintain schedules and coordinate deliveries, subcontractor commitments, and PM
appointments under the Project Managers’ direction. Flag potential delays early.
Budgets and Buildertrend: Track purchases against approved budgets, flag overruns, coordinate invoice
discrepancies with accounting, and keep customer and project records current.

- Familiarity with residential construction materials, plans, and construction sequencing.
- Strong communication, organization, sales follow-up, and attention to detail.
- Comfortable managing multiple priorities, budgets, and deadlines; Buildertrend experience preferred.
Reporting and accountability

contract terms. Project Managers own project execution, field supervision, technical decisions, and
construction schedules. Purchasing follows established approval limits.

materials, current records, and fewer preventable delays.
