Administrative & Operations Assistant - Denver, CO

Martin Construction is a growing residential excavation contractor looking for an Administrative & Operations Assistant to join our team. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who wants to learn how a construction business operates from the inside out.

We are not looking for someone who already knows everything-we're looking for someone who is organized, dependable, eager to learn, and willing to jump in wherever help is needed.

In this role, you'll work closely with company leadership, project coordinators, field supervisors, customers, builders, and vendors. You'll gain hands-on experience in scheduling, dispatch, utility locates, accounts payable, project coordination, customer communication, and day-to-day business operations.

No two days are exactly the same. One day you may be processing invoices, the next helping coordinate utility locates, supporting scheduling efforts, assisting with project documentation, or helping solve a problem that keeps a project moving forward.

If you're someone who enjoys variety, likes learning new things, takes pride in staying organized, and wants to be part of a team where your contributions matter, we'd love to hear from you.
