Preconstruction Project Coordinator (Remote) | Philippines

• Employment Type: Full-Time Contractor
• Workplace: Remote
• Schedule: Monday–Friday, 9:00 am - 6:00 pm PST

At HireHawk, we connect top global talent with high-performing U.S. companies. Our focus is on finding exceptional professionals who bring both expertise and drive to every role. We’re passionate about helping candidates grow their careers while supporting our clients with reliable, remote-ready talent that makes an impact from day one.

As Remote Preconstruction & Project Management Coordinator, you will work directly with the Director of Construction and become a key part of our client's prices, coordinates, and delivers projects. The role will begin with a strong focus on preconstruction, estimating, scope development, bid coordination, budgeting, procurement, and constructability review. As you build trust and demonstrate strong judgment, the role is expected to expand into broader remote project-management support for active construction projects. This is a long-term opportunity for someone who wants autonomy, technical variety, and real exposure to the decisions that shape project cost, schedule, quality, and execution.

Responsibilities

• Review architectural, structural, civil, MEP, and consultant drawings to identify coordination issues, missing information, scope gaps, and constructability concerns before they affect the field
• Prepare trade-specific RFPs, bid packages, scope sheets, subcontract exhibits, and clear subcontractor scope language based on project documents
• Identify qualified subcontractors and vendors, distribute bid packages, manage follow-ups, and keep proposals moving to completion
• Level subcontractor bids, reconcile exclusions and qualifications, and prepare clear recommendations that help leadership make confident award decisions
• Validate construction costs through market research, historical pricing, material quotes, subcontractor feedback, and practical cost comparisons
• Identify value-engineering opportunities that reduce cost or schedule risk without unnecessarily compromising quality or design intent
• Draft RFIs and coordinate open questions with designers, consultants, subcontractors, vendors, and internal construction leadership
• Support project budgets, procurement schedules, long-lead-item tracking, trade cost summaries, allowances, contingencies, general conditions, and known risk items
• Prepare organized project handoff packages so the superintendent and field team have clear scopes, drawings, assumptions, and decision history
• As the role grows, support active projects by managing RFI, submittal, procurement, design-coordination, budget, change-order, meeting, closeout, and action-item logs

Requirements

Must-Have:

• 5+ years of experience in construction preconstruction, estimating, project engineering, or project management
• Strong ability to read and interpret construction drawings, specifications, scopes of work, and trade sequencing
• Experience preparing bid packages, leveling proposals, identifying scope gaps, and drafting clear scope narratives
• Ability to review multiple drawing disciplines for coordination, completeness, constructability, and risk
• Strong written communication skills for RFIs, bid instructions, subcontractor correspondence, meeting notes, and leadership summaries
• Working knowledge of project budgets, procurement, schedules, RFIs, submittals, change management, and construction documentation
• Comfort working independently in a remote role while staying highly responsive, organized, and accountable

Nice to Have:

• 7–10 years of construction experience with demonstrated ownership of bid packages, scope development, budgeting, coordination, and project controls
• Experience with Bluebeam, Procore, Autodesk Construction Cloud, estimating software, or scheduling tools
• Experience supporting restaurant tenant improvements, commercial renovations, façade work, utility upgrades, mixed-use projects, ADUs, or ground-up construction
• Familiarity with Los Angeles construction markets, subcontractor pricing, permitting considerations, or local trade conditions
• Experience reviewing subcontractor change-order requests and assembling backup documentation for leadership review

Benefits

• Access to a $200K+ perk marketplace with discounts on 150+ global services.

• Option to withdraw up to 50% of approved earnings before payday.
