I am currently working with a market leading multi-family specialist in New York City, who focus on the Affordable side of the market on both Ground Up Construction and Occupied Rehab's.

As the essential  on-site field manager  responsible for the daily execution, safety, quality, and scheduling of affordable housing construction projects in New York City.

• OSHA 30-Hour Construction Safety  certification required.

• Valid  NYC Site Safety Training (SST) Supervisor Card  preferred or required per project classification.

• Establish and strictly enforce all construction site safety standards, including OSHA regulations and all Chapter 33 of the NYC Building Code requirements. Conduct daily safety meetings ( Toolbox Talks) and routine site inspections.

• Maintain the official job site log book and daily activity reports. Coordinate and manage all required NYC Department of Buildings ( DOB) inspections, sign-offs, and compliance with all permits.

• Ensure all designated workers and subcontractors have the necessary licensing and  NYC Site Safety Training (SST)  cards.

• Oversee the structural, envelope, and system installation phases of new construction, ensuring proper sequencing and quality control for all trades (excavation, concrete, steel, MEP, finishes).

• Work with the Project Manager to create and maintain the short-term look-ahead schedule, adjusting daily work plans to ensure the project remains on track to meet milestones.

• Inspect and verify that all installed materials and workmanship conform to the approved plans, specifications, and quality standards required by the affordable housing program and funding agencies (HPD, HDC).

• Manage site logistics, including material delivery, storage, waste removal, and equipment staging, minimizing impact on the surrounding community.

• Supervise all on-site trade subcontractors, resolving immediate field conflicts and ensuring seamless coordination between trades.

• Verify materials delivered match purchase orders and specifications, and that sufficient materials and labor are present to maintain the schedule.

• Field verify conditions and communicate clearly with the Project Manager, Architect, and Engineers to resolve Requests for Information (RFIs) and implement approved change orders.
