We’re a busy construction company looking for an experienced Office Manager to basically be the backbone of our office — handling the books, payroll, projects, and keeping everything running smoothly. This is a big, important role, and we’re looking for someone who knows construction, is super organized, and can juggle a lot without getting overwhelmed.

This is a big, important role, and we’re looking for someone who knows construction, is super organized, and can juggle a lot without getting overwhelmed.
That said — we’re also a very laid-back, casual, no-drama kind of workplace. No corporate vibes, no micromanaging. We just want someone who’s dependable, knows their stuff, and wants to be part of a solid team where everyone pulls their weight and treats each other with respect.

- Solid QuickBooks skills

Why This Job Is Actually Pretty Great
- Competitive pay based on experience
