- Experience with project plans and blueprints – you should be comfortable reviewing drawings and understanding the scope of work.
- Strong organizational and multitasking skills – you’ll be managing multiple bids and deadlines.
- Good communication skills – you’ll work closely with vendors, contractors, and team members.
