Position Overview

Align is a specialized general contractor (GC) who manages the entire fit-out of data center white space projects across the country. We seek a Construction Administrator who will support the successful delivery of large-scale construction projects.

This role serves as a key coordination point between Project Managers, Operations, Accounting, Legal, and subcontractors to help ensure projects remain organized, compliant, and aligned throughout the project lifecycle.

You will assist with project setup, documentation tracking, subcontractor coordination, and compliance-related processes while maintaining clear communication across internal teams and external partners. The ideal candidate is highly organized, detail-oriented, and proactive, with the ability to manage multiple moving pieces in a fast-paced data center project environment.

—This hybrid position requires 3 days per week in our Midtown Manhattan office and 2 days working from home.
