Job Description

Description :

About Banks Construction Company : Banks Construction Company is the leading single-source provider of heavy civil and asphalt paving services in the Charleston region, serving the Tri-County area with excellence for over 75 years. Our divisions span asphalt paving and grading, storm drainage, traffic control, surveying (including GPS-guided grading and drone-enabled modeling), and quality control in our state-certified lab. As a family-run, third-generation leader in highway and civil construction, we take pride in our innovation, safety-first culture, and community impact.

Position Summary : The Executive Assistant will deliver executive-level administrative support directly to the CEO, serving as a trusted partner and communications hub within the company. You’ll ensure seamless operations in a fast-paced, mission-critical environment, interacting with internal teams—from field operations to equipment and surveying divisions—and external stakeholders, including clients, government agencies, and contractors.

Key Responsibilities :

  • Calendar & Communication Management

Coordinate the CEO’s daily schedule, including internal / external meetings, site visits, and strategic sessions.

  • Screen and correspond with incoming calls, emails, and requests, routing or responding as appropriate.
  • Maintain CEO’s contact database and manage correspondence with discretion and professionalism.
  • Travel & Meeting Logistics
  • Arrange all aspects of business travel, including transportation, accommodations, and itineraries.

  • Prepare and distribute meeting agendas, minutes, briefing materials, and follow-up tasks.
  • Document & Project Support
  • Draft, edit, and format presentations, reports, executive summaries, and internal memos using Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.

  • Support ad-hoc and special projects, including executive outreach, community or agency relations, and parts of family-office–like administrative needs if applicable.
  • Office & Administrative Coordination
  • Manage office systems such as filing, procurement of supplies, and general administrative needs.

  • Coordinate with cross-functional teams (e.g. operations support, traffic control, equipment division) to facilitate project documentation and CEO engagement.
  • Confidentiality & Professionalism
  • Handle sensitive matters with strict confidentiality, exercising sound judgement under pressure.

  • Represent the CEO and Banks Construction with integrity in all interactions.
  • Requirements :

  • Must be local to the Charleston area and able to work on-site daily
  • Minimum 5 years of experience supporting a CEO, President, or C-level executive—preferably in construction, heavy civil, engineering, or related sectors
  • Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite : Outlook, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.
  • Exceptional organizational skills, attention to detail, and ability to prioritize competing demands.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, tact, and discretion, with a polished professional presence.
  • Resourceful, proactive, and capable of operating with minimal supervision in a dynamic industry setting.
  • Comfortable standing in for the CEO when necessary and engaging with internal teams across technical operations.
  • A valid driver’s license and reliable transportation—field visits and travel are integral to this role.
  • Preferred Attributes

  • Experience collaborating with construction, infrastructure, or heavy civil operations.
  • Familiarity with industry-specific software or digital tools (e.g., project management, scheduling, document / database management).
  • Excellent interpersonal skills to connect with both office staff and field crews, enhancing company unity and efficiency.
  • What We Offer

  • A collaborative, supportive work environment shaped by decades of industry leadership.
  • Opportunities to engage across departments—from grading and paving to surveying and quality control.
  • Competitive compensation aligned with experience.
  • Growth potential as we continue advancing projects throughout South Carolina.
  • Why This Role Matters : Supporting a dynamic CEO in a multi-faceted, operations-driven organization like Banks Construction is more than an administrative duty—it’s a hands-on opportunity to engage with high-impact infrastructure projects and make a meaningful operational contribution.
