About the role

**Location & Team Gatherings

Intersect has been a fully flexible workplace since its founding in 2016.  We’ve been very intentional about the way we do things. We are not work-from-home, hybrid, or in-office – we are any and all of those options! Deepening social connections and offering shared experiences is a cornerstone of the way we work. We connect as a team at our Team Week experiences four times a year and at our recently established Hub locations - SF Bay Area, NYC Metro Area, NY; Denver, CO; Houston, TX; Calgary, AB; and Toronto, ON.

We are currently looking for candidates located within 60 miles of any of the listed hubs to foster more in-person connections while maintaining our flexible remote culture.

**About This Role

As part of Intersect’s data center construction organization, you’ll support the delivery of complex powered shell projects that require tight coordination, disciplined documentation, and strong execution fundamentals. Working closely with the Project Manager, you’ll help keep schedules, budgets, and cross-functional teams aligned while ensuring day-to-day project activities move forward smoothly.

You’ll act as the operational backbone of the project team, organizing information, tracking progress, and supporting communication across architects, engineers, contractors, and vendors. This role is well-suited for a developing project professional who thrives in fast-paced environments, brings strong construction fundamentals, and is eager to grow into larger project leadership responsibilities over time.

**Team Overview

This team plays a critical role in advancing Intersect’s mission to accelerate the energy transition by delivering technically complex, large-scale infrastructure projects with consistency and discipline. Partnering closely with engineering, construction, procurement, and operations teams, the group ensures projects are executed safely, on schedule, and with high-quality outcomes. Joining this team offers exposure to complex builds, structured project execution, and meaningful career growth within Intersect’s expanding portfolio.

Drive Project Closeout

• Play a lead role in project closeout by collecting, organizing, and reviewing turnover documentation.

• Support handover to operations teams by ensuring as-builts, O&M manuals, warranties, and closeout materials are complete and well-organized.

**What You’ll Bring

• A bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Project Management, or a related field will help you succeed.

• Foundational experience supporting construction or infrastructure projects in a project coordination or assistant project management role.

• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail, particularly with documentation and tracking.
