Construction Close-Out Specialist 

About the Role: 
As a Construction Close-Out Specialist, you will play a pivotal role in guiding construction projects through their final stages to successful completion and turnover. This role is responsible for managing the administrative and operational aspects of project closeout, including punch list completion, documentation, and warranty coordination. You will work directly with general contractors, developers, and internal and external stakeholders to ensure every location is ready for occupancy with all required materials submitted, issues resolved, and closeout activities completed. 
 
This role is ideal for a self-starter with strong on-site experience—someone who understands what it takes to get things done and who thrives in a fast-paced, team-driven environment. You will not operate in a silo; collaboration, communication, and initiative are essential.  


Key Responsibilities: 
  • Manage 10–15 construction projects simultaneously, with an emphasis on the final project stages. Ensure all punch list items are identified, tracked, and resolved. Maintain direct communication with General Contractors to keep close-out on track—without depending on others to drive progress. 
 
  • Take full responsibility for organizing and submitting all required close-out documentation, including warranties, licenses, permits, as-built drawings, and O&M manuals. Strong working knowledge of Procore is essential to track tasks, manage documentation, and facilitate project communication. 
 
  • Lead the punch list process—identifying, verifying, and ensuring correction of all deficiencies. Conduct follow-ups and coordinate with subcontractors to ensure nothing is missed prior to project handover. 
     
  • Conduct site visits as needed to verify completion of work and evaluate final construction conditions. Ensure all punch list and warranty items are addressed properly before location turnover. 
     
  • Serve as the key contact for franchisees during the first 60 days of operation. Resolve warranty concerns quickly and effectively. Maintain organized systems for warranty tracking and contractor communication. 
     
  • Work closely with internal partners including Construction Management, New Center Opening, and Facility Operations teams to ensure alignment and handoff readiness. Collaboration and cross-functional coordination are critical. 

Requirements: 
  • Minimum 2+ years of experience in construction management, with direct exposure to project closeout and punch list execution. 
     
  • Experience in on-site project coordination, with preference for school or commercial construction; residential experience will be considered. 
     
  • Strong knowledge of Procore and construction management software. 
     
  • Proven ability to manage multiple concurrent projects in a high-volume environment. 
     
  • Exceptional communication skills—written and verbal—with a team-first mindset. 
     
  • Highly organized, detail-oriented, and capable of managing closeout and punch list processes independently. 
     
  • Willingness to travel up to 30% nationally and visit job sites when required. 
     
  • Must be a proactive problem solver and self-starter who takes ownership of outcomes without relying heavily on Construction Managers. 

Preferred Skills: 
  • Experience in daycare, school, or educational facility construction 
     
  • Familiarity with childcare licensing processes 
     
  • Working knowledge of building code requirements and compliance for institutional buildings 

Physical Requirements: 
  • Ability to travel and perform on-site inspections in active construction environments 
     
  • Must be able to work in varying weather conditions and navigate construction sites 
     
  • Valid driver’s license required 
Compensation: $60,000.00 - $70,000.00 per year
