  • Organize and support project meetings by preparing agendas, documenting minutes, tracking action items, and ensuring follow through.
  • Monitor project progress, identify risks, and provide timely updates to project managers and stakeholders.
  • Maintain accurate and organized project documentation, including contracts, reports, change orders, drawings, and package submissions.
  • Prepare, format, and issue project deliverables using WSP templates and tools to meet quality and client standards.
  • Track project expenditures and support resource planning to align utilization with approved budgets and work plans.
  • Facilitate communication between internal teams, external vendors, and clients to keep work flowing and remove bottlenecks.
  • Support project and construction management activities, including document control, action tracking, and coordination with site teams.
  • Capture accurate minutes for weekly project reviews and key sessions, ensuring decisions and next steps are clearly shared.

The Skills That Set You Apart

  • A degree, diploma, or certificate in administration, project management, or a related field, paired with 3–8 years of project coordination or project administrative experience supporting multiple projects.
  • Experience working in project driven environments
  • Knowledge in Smartsheet is an asset
  • High proficiency in MS Office and confidence working with databases, vendor systems, and project management tools.
  • Knowledge of project controls and planning tools such as Primavera P6 is an asset.
