• Administer the full project lifecycle, including scope definition, specification, tendering, scheduling, implementation, and close-out.

• Plan and manage suite renovations, minor common area upgrades, equipment replacements, and support completion of post-project loose ends such as deficiencies, landscaping, or delayed components (e.g., holdbacks, ancillary items).

• Participate in site tours to assess project requirements, validate progress, and confirm completion to company standards.

• Support procurement and vendor coordination, including quote collection, job scheduling, and documentation of project close-out.

• Coordinate the completion of any outstanding work or deficiencies following turnover, ensuring units are delivered as promised.

Administrative and Reporting Support

• Support the Senior Associate in maintaining comprehensive capital project documentation, including project logs, financial tracking tools, and contract records.
• Assist with budget planning by creating project cost summaries and supporting financial forecasting efforts.
• Support new vendor onboarding, purchase order creation, and invoice processing and review.
• Contribute to annual capital planning by gathering data, drafting project proposals, and identifying opportunities based on historical performance and emerging needs.

Communication and Coordination

• Serve as a liaison with internal departments (Operations, Leasing, Maintenance) to gather input, share updates, and ensure coordinated execution.
• Communicate with residents regarding unit or building work, providing clear timelines and setting accurate expectations.
• Attend internal capital planning and execution meetings, recording action items, decisions, and progress updates.
