  • Quality control: Regularly inspect the work completed by the crew to ensure it meets project specifications and quality standards.
  • Resource management: Monitor and manage the inventory, delivery, and proper use of materials, equipment, and tools.
  • Reporting and documentation: Maintain daily logs detailing work progress, hours, materials used, and any incidents. These reports are often submitted to project managers or other supervisors.
  • Problem-solving: Address and resolve any issues or conflicts that arise on the job site in a timely and effective manner.
  • Communication: Act as the primary point of contact between the work crew, project managers, clients, and suppliers.

  • Leadership: The ability to motivate, mentor, and lead a team to achieve project goals.
  • Communication: Clear verbal and written skills for providing instructions, reporting progress, and resolving conflicts.
