• Manage permitting, utility locates, and municipal coordination for right-of-way access
• Maintain accurate documentation including as-builts, daily logs, work orders, and change orders
• Ensure all work is performed safely and in compliance with OSHA standards and client safety requirements
• Manage project budgets and material inventory; identify cost efficiencies without sacrificing quality
