Qualifications: 3+ years of experience in procurement, contract administration, construction administration, or supplier/vendor management. Bachelor's degree or an equivalent combination of education and relevant experience. Strong organizational skills with exceptional attention to detail and ability to manage multiple priorities. Proven ability to coordinate complex, multi stakeholder workflows and ensure timely follow through. Excellent communication and relationship management skills, with the ability to work across all levels of an organization. Ability to learn and apply technical regulatory requirements and compliance frameworks. Interest in becoming a subject matter expert in prevailing wage and apprenticeship compliance. Proficiency with Microsoft Office, including Excel, Outlook, and Teams, and ability to quickly learn new systems. Experience in renewable energy, utility scale construction, capital projects, EPC contractors, or field construction environments is an asset. Familiarity with IRA, Davis Bacon, certified payroll requirements, apprenticeship programs, construction compliance software, and ERP platforms such as Dynamics 365 or SAP is preferred.
