Construction Administration Employee / Construction Project Assistant (80–100%)

You know the construction industry – and enjoy it when everything runs smoothly in the background?

At Penzel Valier, demanding architecture and engineering projects are created. For these projects to function well not only in terms of planning, but also organizationally and economically, people are needed who keep an overview, consolidate information, and support project management in daily operations.

For our Management + Processes competence area, we are looking for a committed personality for construction administration and project assistance.

You do not need to be able to do everything already. Much more important is your interest in the construction industry, your structured way of working, and your willingness to develop professionally.

Your tasks

You support our general and project managements in the organizational and administrative processing of our construction projects.

This includes, among other things:

• Support with construction administration and project organization
• Preparation and maintenance of cost and project data
• Support with construction cost control, cost forecasts, and evaluations
• Assistance in the creation and processing of tenders and tender documents
• Obtaining, preparing, and comparing contractor offers
• Support with awards, works contracts, and orders
• Maintenance of schedule, project, and document structures
• Support with invoice verification and construction accounting
• Updating project information and documentation
• Preparation of meetings, discussions, and decision-making bases
• Coordination and follow-up of open points
• Support of the project management in organizational and administrative topics
• Cooperation with architects, engineers, construction managers, contractors, and other project participants

With increasing experience, you will independently take on more demanding tasks in the areas of costs, tenders, and construction administration.

What you bring with you

You have a commercial or comparable education and ideally already have experience in the construction industry.

You are a particularly good fit for us if you have worked, for example, as a:

• Project Assistant
• Project Administration
• Construction Clerk
• Commercial Employee of a construction company
• Assistant to Construction Management / Project Management
• Clerk in Architecture or Engineering
• GU/TU Employee
• Real estate clerk with a connection to construction projects

We are not looking for a pure assistant personality. You should have an interest in looking behind the projects and understanding how costs, schedules, tenders, and construction processes are interconnected.

This is important to us

• Commercial education or comparable qualification
• Initial professional experience, ideally in a construction, architecture, engineering, or real estate environment
• Interest in construction projects and economic contexts
• Confident use of MS Office, especially Excel and Outlook
• Very good German skills
• Independent, structured, and reliable way of working
• Enjoyment in coordinating information and keeping an overview
• Clear and binding communication
• Willingness to develop professionally

Experience with Messerli, construction administration software, tenders, or construction accounting is a plus – but not a requirement.

What awaits you with us

With us, you are not simply "the administration."

You work directly on our projects and receive the opportunity to build up specialist knowledge in construction administration, cost management, and tenders step by step.

You work closely with our general managements, project managements, architects, and specialist planners, and thereby gain a comprehensive insight into the creation of complex construction projects.

We offer you:

• demanding and varied construction projects
• a versatile interface function between administration and project work
• the opportunity to take on responsibility and develop professionally
• short decision-making paths and an interdisciplinary environment
• modern work tools and digital processes
• a collegial environment with direct communication
• a workload of 80–100 %
