• Create and maintain extra work reports; track approval signatures and project logs

• Analyze daily production performance and report insights to management

• Maintain quality control documentation and ensure subcontractor compliance

• Attend project meetings, client updates, and site visits as required

• Serve as the PM’s "eyes and ears" on the jobsite—reporting potential issues, budget variances, or delays
