Job Description
Insight Global is seeking a Project Specialist (APM) to support a high-volume, multi-site interior refresh program for a national client. This role partners closely with an assigned Project Manager, serving as the operational backbone of the program by owning project coordination, documentation, budget tracking, and day-to-day communication across multiple stakeholders.

• Partner closely with an assigned Project Manager to support multiple fast-moving interior refresh projects across active locations
• Participate in frequent client and internal meetings, project kickoff calls, and coordination calls with General Contractors and landlords
• Track schedules, budgets, documentation, and project updates across multiple platforms while maintaining tight timelines
