About The Position

Story Construction is seeking Construction Management Interns for their summer 2026 internship program. Interns will be assigned a jobsite and mentor, participate in orientation, create a learning plan, lead site tours, and present lessons learned to senior leadership. The internship offers exposure to commercial construction through a field-focus, project engineer-focus, or a hybrid approach, tailored to the intern's experience level. The field focus involves working with crews on steel erection, concrete, and carpentry, with mentorship from a project engineer. The hybrid focus splits time between field work and project management tasks, involving project planning and the project management process. The project engineer focus is primarily with the project management team in the jobsite trailer, learning about project planning, document control, RFIs, submittals, and Procore, preparing interns for a future career as a Project Engineer.
