- Perform accurate data entry of daily inspection reports, material certifications, test results, quantities, and other CIQC records into AWP, ProCore, ProjectWise, or other required systems.
- Track, log, and file incoming/outgoing correspondence, RFIs, submittals, change-order documentation, force-account records, and material acceptance documentation.
- Assist with preparation and distribution of meeting minutes, progress reports, and routine administrative correspondence.
- Support quantity tracking and progress-estimate preparation by compiling inspector data and verifying basic calculations under supervision.
- Maintain logs for material certifications, sample tracking, non-conformance reports, and corrective-action documentation.
- Coordinate with field inspectors, Office Engineer, Resident Engineer, and materials testing staff to ensure timely submission and completeness of required records.
- Perform general clerical duties including photocopying, scanning, filing, mail handling, and office supply coordination for the project field office.
- Assist with project close-out documentation and final records package assembly.
- Uphold confidentiality and maintain professional communication with contractors, NYSDOT staff, and internal team members.
- Perform other related administrative duties as assigned to support the CIQC and construction inspection effort.  

**The Minimum Requirements we seek:**

- High school diploma or equivalent required.
- 1–2 years of clerical, administrative, or office experience preferred (construction, engineering, or public-works setting a plus).

- Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced project environment.
- Ability to follow written procedures and maintain accurate records.
- Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation may be required.
- Ability to work in a field-office setting and adapt to project schedules (occasional overtime or adjusted hours possible).
- Primarily office-based within a project field office, with occasional site visits in a deadline-driven environment requiring accuracy and adaptability to varying project demands.
- Requires prolonged periods of sitting and computer work, occasional lifting of files or boxes weighing up to 25–30 lbs., and the ability to navigate a construction field office environment.  

**Preferred Qualifications**

- Prior experience supporting NYSDOT, Thruway, or similar transportation construction inspection projects.
- Familiarity with MURK forms, SiteManager, ProjectWise, or comparable construction management software.
- Experience handling material certifications, daily reports, or contract documentation.
