  • Financial Oversight: Ensure clients meet their financial obligations as outlined in the contract.
  • Team Collaboration: Assist the Estimating and Sales teams to ensure costs and timelines are maintained. Prepare clients for Colour Selections and ensure all necessary paperwork is available to the Construction Administrator
We are looking for:
