Currently based in Albuquerque, NEW MEXICO | UTC/GMT -6 hours

While the construction industry is still a very brick and mortar business, technology these days now gives employers the opportunity to explore alternative options. In my Industry we call this a Niche Market VA. Generally Niche Market Va’s tend to specialize in there field of experience and in many cases this stems from there local in office work and carries over to a remote position.

I started OfficeManager4u originally because I spent years in this role working in office in the construction industry and fell in love with the industry itself. I fit like a glove with the guys on the field and knew how to talk to the brains (engineers) in the office. Combined with my strong personality and work ethic it seemed like me and this industry were practically married. Time flew fast because this industry knows how to keep you busy wrapped up in paperwork, procedure and building those relationships with your GC’s, trade contractors and suppliers all day long. A Construction VA’s job is always a busy one, it would not matter if you worked in office or remotely, their is always something to do. I have worked for both sides in this industry with General Contractors and Subcontractors both in residential and commerical construction. Experienced in David Beacon jobs (Public previaling wage projects)

If your company is still based locally in office, the benefit would be great working with me. I can bring your business up to date and build your online reputation to be more prominent and competitive on the world wide web. The Construction Industry is catching up to modern digital times. The mere fact that you are reading this (light bulb moment) should tell you, it has arrived. It is clear there is a demand for more people like myself. I do wonder if the demand will be met?

Are you a one man show but hate the administration part of the business? or are you an small office, company or crew looking to compliment the many tasks needed to support your business? Whichever it is, you have found a resource in me.
