Construction Coordinator - Pre-Construction Focus

Company: IRBY Group
Location: Spanish Fort
Posted on: May 29, 2025

Job Description:

IRBY Group's fast-growing residential construction division, Blueprint Community Homes, specializes in small subdivisions and infill lot development. We focus on delivering affordable, smaller homes ideal for both starter homebuyers and build-to-rent investors. We subcontract all labor and manage material vendors in-house. We are seeking a highly organized and proactive Construction Coordinator with a pre-construction focus to help us scale by managing the front-end of our building process-from raw land to shovel-ready.



This is not an exclusively field superintendent position. Instead, you will be the engine behind getting homes ready to build. Your primary focus will be pre-construction coordination, including lot & land acquisitions, site readiness, entitlements, budgeting, and permitting. If you love solving problems, navigating municipal processes, and keeping development projects moving - this role is for you. This is an in-office position at our headquarters in Mobile, Alabama.



What We Offer:



--- Competitive base salary ($50K-$60K+ depending on experience)
--- Performance-based bonuses and incentives ($20K+ annually)
--- Paid time off and health benefits
--- Vehicle stipend or mileage reimbursement
--- Opportunities for growth in a dynamic, high-impact environment

Responsibilities:
--- Analyze lot and land leads for viability for new construction projects
--- Perform pre-purchase due diligence, site evaluations, and lot selection
--- Coordinate entitlements, rezoning, and subdivision applications
--- Work with engineers, architects, and surveyors on site plans and layouts
--- Apply for and manage permits and inspections with local municipalities
--- Assist with budgeting and pre-construction cost estimates
--- Select and adjust house plans to fit site specs, market needs, and code compliance
--- Coordinate vendors, utilities, and subcontractors to prepare sites for vertical construction
--- Track timelines and approvals, and regularly report to leadership on project readiness
--- Ensure compliance with all applicable building codes and zoning laws

Qualifications:
What We're Looking For:
--- 3+ years of experience in residential construction, land development, or pre-construction coordination
--- Knowledge of permitting, zoning, and land development processes
--- Ability to read and interpret site plans, house plans, and surveys
--- Strong communication and follow-up skills with contractors, engineers, and government agencies
--- Self-starter with the ability to juggle multiple projects at once
--- Proficiency in technology tools like BuilderTrend, Procore, Contractor Foreman, or other project management platforms is a plus
