About Truline Contracting
Truline Contracting is a growing construction and restoration company serving Southern Alberta. We specialize in commercial and residential construction, restoration, structural repair, complex rebuilds, and custom renovation work.
Our work is built around precision, accountability, craftsmanship, and clear communication. We are trusted for complex projects that require strong organization, practical problem-solving, and a team that knows how to keep work moving properly.
As Truline continues to grow, we are looking for a highly organized and proactive Project Manager Assistant / Office Administrator to help support our projects, strengthen our internal systems, and improve how information moves between our team, clients, trades, suppliers, insurance partners, property managers, and homeowners.
This is the first role of its kind within the company, which makes it a unique opportunity for the right person. You will not simply be stepping into a fully defined administrative seat. You will help shape the role, build processes, create structure, and support the next stage of Truline’s growth.
About the Role
The Project Manager Assistant / Office Administrator will support project coordination, office administration, scheduling, documentation, reporting, client communication, trade coordination, AP/AR tracking, and internal process development.
This role is ideal for someone who is organized, confident, detail-oriented, and comfortable working in a fast-paced construction environment. You should be able to anticipate needs, take initiative, follow through, and help prevent small issues from becoming bigger problems.
The right candidate will be a strong communicator, a proactive team player, and someone who wants to take ownership of their role inside a growing company.
