- Timeline Monitoring: Keep a close eye on daily and weekly on-site workflows to guarantee adherence to the master project schedule.
- Site Inspections & Reporting: Conduct weekly on-site walkthroughs, documenting progress comprehensively through written logs and detailed photo documentation.
- Defect Management: Identify, log, and track any defects caused by subcontractors, and strictly monitor deadlines for their resolution.
- Digital Documentation: Manage all protocols and visual data digitally via modern project management tools to ensure full transparency of the construction status at all times.
Your Profile

- Communication: Business-fluent or native German skills (C1/C2) with a confident, assertive, and professional communication style when dealing with various project stakeholders.
- Mindset: A strong hands-on mentality, entrepreneurial thinking, and the willingness to take full ownership of your projects. You thrive in a young, dynamic company where you can actively shape processes.
- Mobility: Valid driver's license and the flexibility to commute to local site visits regularly.
