  • Excellent problem solving skills with an ability to analyze and prioritize multiple variables at once
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills; the position involves lots of interaction with clients and tradespeople

  • Strong organization skills and the ability to track and communicate project progress with clients and the rest of the Kole Made team
  • Ability to read blueprints and understand how they translate to the built world
  • Ability to give respect to all parties on the project and be able to resolve problems without escalating the situation
  • Familiarity with local building codes

  • Coordinate material ordering and deliveries on site with proper sequencing (when applicable)
  • Maintain regular communication with clients and provide updates about progress, decisions to be made, and check points, and be their main point of contact throughout the project
  • Meet regularly with clients on site for milestone meetings and communicate progress regularly with progress
  • Assist in assembling estimates for projects
  • Maintain a clean and safe job site (this can mean sometimes being the one who cleans it)

Requirements
