Department: General Services

Job Overview

We are seeking qualified candidates to fill three full-time Construction Projects Specialist positions within the General Services Department. Each role will focus on distinct areas: 1) Energy Initiatives, 2) Maintenance Capital Projects, and 3) General Capital Projects.

Position Summary: Under general supervision, the Construction Projects Specialist undertakes intricate technical responsibilities related to the planning, inspection, and coordination of construction capital projects and spatial organization; and performs additional related tasks as necessary.

  • Competency in utilizing Microsoft Outlook, Projects, and other Office software; as well as AutoCAD and related design software.
  • Commitment to the shared values of the Capital Projects and Facilities/Maintenance Division, including efficiency, customer service, teamwork, respect for individuals and the environment, ethical standards, character, leadership, work-life balance, and workplace innovation.
Key Responsibilities:
  • Develop projects through necessary entitlement research; conduct programming functions with stakeholders; and create detailed project scopes of work (SOW), including potential project layouts or take-off exhibits.
  • Assemble project charters that outline the general project scope, schedule, and the terms of the working relationship between the GS Capital Division and the internal client.
  • Consult with contractors and consultants regarding design, scope of work, and cost estimates.
  • Prepare and negotiate contracts, change orders, and inspection reports; certify payment requests; maintain construction records; and prepare claims on grant-funded projects using office automation software.
  • Coordinate with consultant architects and engineers as needed concerning projects under proposal or construction and maintain appropriate records.
  • Inspect and monitor projects under construction to ensure compliance with specifications; coordinate contractors and maintenance personnel; assist maintenance personnel with issues related to existing buildings.
  • Provide program-level support to Capital Division Managers and Project Managers, including tracking project progress; assembling program reports; developing written documents such as Project Charters, Requests for Qualifications/Proposals (RFQ/P), and Construction Notifications; and assist in posting projects on bidding software.
  • Support the Energy Division with utility management, energy efficiency, and renewable energy program development, including annual reporting and project reviews.
  • Manage a database of HVAC equipment and controls systems, developing a repair and replacement plan aligned with sustainability goals.
  • Collaborate with divisions on the development and monitoring of Electric Vehicle (EV) charging station programs across County-owned facilities.
  • Represent the General Services Department in sustainability program management and coordinate projects with other departments.
  • May supervise paraprofessional staff on a project-by-project basis.
Employment Standards:
  1. Completion of 24 semester units or 36 quarter units of college coursework in architecture, engineering, space planning, drafting technology, or a closely related field, AND two years of experience in architectural, engineering, or construction project management, architectural inspection, construction inspection, architectural design, or space planning; OR
