This role is ideal for someone with strong field experience in landscape restoration, clearing and grubbing, tree removal, TESC / erosion control, public works, and subcontractor coordination.

The selected candidate will represent Lumank in the field, coordinate daily work with subcontractors, communicate with the owner/engineer, maintain schedule, document progress, and help ensure the project is completed safely, on time, within budget, and in compliance with all contract requirements.

• Maintain daily reports, field photos, manpower/equipment logs, and quantity tracking.
• Prepare and maintain short-term lookahead schedules.
• Coordinate with the owner, inspectors, engineers, subcontractors, suppliers, and Lumank management.
• Review drawings, specifications, addenda, and work limits before field execution.
• Confirm that only approved trees/vegetation are removed.
• Protect existing trees, wetlands, buffers, utilities, park features, hardscape, fences, and surrounding improvements.
• Monitor subcontractor performance, safety, quality, cleanup, and schedule.
• Support RFIs, change-order documentation, pay applications, and closeout records.
• Coordinate TESC / CESCL requirements, BMP maintenance, stormwater controls, and environmental compliance.
• Help enforce prevailing wage, certified payroll, safety, and public works documentation requirements.
