Temp Lausd Construction Jobs (NOW HIRING)

The Work

LAUSD's Facilities Environmental Technical Unit (FETU) manages the environmental side of school construction and repair: asbestos abatement and lead remediation that has to happen before campuses can be demolished, renovated, or repaired. As the Junior M&O Project Manager, you help plan, coordinate, and expedite these projects across schools, administrative buildings, and other District facilities.

You are the liaison among the District's project management units, the Maintenance and Operations areas, environmental consultants, and abatement contractors. You review Requests for Assistance with FETU technical staff to set the scope, review project drawings, prepare funding request packages, and request and evaluate cost proposals from environmental consultants for accuracy and viability.

Day to day you initiate and execute abatement work through A&B, task order, and JOC contracts, schedule lead and asbestos abatements around demolition, renovation, and the temporary housing of students and staff, review contractor submittals, daily logs, and certified payroll to approve invoices, analyze change orders, run the bid and contract award process, and support closeout and certification. You keep the FETU tracking sheet current and document job start meetings.
