We’re guided by our culture of care and our core values: We put safety first. We act with integrity. We are stronger together. We deliver with excellence.

The Capital Projects Construction Coordinator plays a key role in ensuring safe, efficient, and high-quality execution of capital construction projects. This position provides day-to-day field coordination, supports contractor oversight, and helps maintain alignment with project scope, schedule, and standards. While not the project owner, the Construction Coordinator is central to disciplined field execution and successful project delivery.

Key Responsibilities

• Coordinate daily field construction activities and serve as the primary liaison between project teams, site operations, and contractors.
• Participate in daily coordination meetings and weekly planning sessions, providing field status updates, progress reporting, and risk identification to the Capital Projects Team.
• Demonstrate visible safety leadership and reinforce a strong safety culture in the field.
• Verify contractor compliance with site safety requirements, permits, and procedures.
• Participate in hazard identification, job observations, and incident follow-up.
• Stop work when unsafe conditions are observed and ensure corrective actions are taken.
• Oversee contractor work fronts, shared resources, and interfaces to minimize conflict and rework.
• Provide on-site direction regarding scope, sequencing, access, and work boundaries.
• Monitor construction progress, identify delays or conflicts, and support timely resolution.
• Enforce construction standards, specifications, and safe work procedures.
• Maintain accurate field records, including progress updates, contractor interactions, and changes.
• Participate in pre-commissioning, commissioning, and startup activities.
• Review and validate contractor daily reports (LEMs) and approve work for invoicing.
• Identify scope gaps or changes and communicate impacts to the Project Manager.
• Support contractor onboarding, site orientation, and communication of expectations.
• Support readiness for inspections, completion of turnover activities, and completion documentation.
• Contribute to post-project reviews, lessons learned, and contractor performance feedback.

What You'll Bring

• Minimum 5 years of experience in capital project execution in underground mining, heavy industrial, or large-scale construction environments. Experience may include hands-on, supervisory, or coordination roles.
• Demonstrated leadership experience in supervising and managing field teams, coordinating contractors, and fostering strong working relationships across diverse disciplines.
• Practical experience in managing project scope, schedule, and budget is highly valued.
• Strong understanding of construction practices, reading and reviewing technical documents and drawings, safety protocols, and project execution strategies—whether gained through formal education or field experience.
• Excellent communication, problem-solving, and organizational skills, with the ability to work effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Familiarity with project management tools and systems (e.g., Primavera, MS Project, SAP) is preferred. Willingness to learn and adapt to digital tools is equally valued.
