Bower Builders is a Fernie-based custom homebuilding company focused on creating thoughtfully designed, high-quality homes throughout Fernie and the Elk Valley.
We’re looking for an organized, reliable, and proactive person to join our small team and provide administrative and project coordination support. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys keeping things organized, communicating with people, and helping projects run smoothly behind the scenes.
Working directly with the owner, you’ll help manage the many details involved in building custom homes, from maintaining schedules and coordinating with trades to keeping project information up to date.
What You’ll Do
Project Coordination
- Assist with maintaining and updating construction schedules across multiple projects.
- Coordinate and follow up with subcontractors and suppliers regarding scheduling, deliveries, and outstanding items.
- Track project milestones, upcoming deadlines, and action items.
- Assist with organizing site meetings, inspections, and project-related appointments.
- Help keep projects moving by identifying outstanding information and following up as needed.
Administration & Documentation
- Maintain organized digital project files, records, and documentation.
- Enter and update project information, schedules, selections, and other tracking documents.
- Assist with preparing and distributing emails, meeting notes, and project updates.
- Scan, file, and organize invoices, receipts, contracts, and other project paperwork.

What We’re Looking For
- Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
- A proactive approach to problem-solving and follow-through.
- Comfortable working independently, managing priorities, and keeping multiple projects organized.
- Confident using computers, email, spreadsheets, and common office software.
- Professional and approachable when communicating with trades, suppliers, and clients.
Experience in construction, residential building, office administration, or project coordination is an asset. Familiarity with construction schedules, project management software, or reading construction drawings would be an advantage, but we’re happy to train the right person.
What We Offer
- Competitive hourly compensation of $25–$30, based on experience.
- A consistent, part-time schedule of approximately 16 hours per week across 4 days.
- Health Spending Account after 3 month probation period.
- The opportunity to learn about custom homebuilding and contribute meaningfully to projects throughout the Elk Valley.
