Quality Control Associate ensuring rent-ready standards for rental homes at Darwin Homes. Managing quality checkpoints, inspections, and vendor coordination during the construction turn process.

Responsibilities:

  • Own the post-dispatch stage of every turn, ensuring quality control checkpoints are completed accurately and on schedule.
  • Receive and track all change-order submissions, assessing downstream schedule impact and communicating risks to the Senior Manager and Quality Control Manager in real time.
  • Coordinate with the Quality Control Manager to determine final inspection readiness, ensuring no turn is submitted for inspection prematurely.
  • Conduct proof-of-work reviews for completed turns, verifying that vendor-submitted documentation aligns with the approved scope prior to inspection scheduling.
  • Manage all final inspection outcomes — categorizing results as Straight Pass, Pass With Punch, or Failed RRI — and drive appropriate follow-through for each.
  • Ensure Failed RRIs are resolved and re-inspected within 5 business days of notification, escalating unresolved items to the Senior Manager at day 3.
  • Track and report Pass With Punch cure timelines, holding vendors accountable to 24-hour completion targets.
  • Maintain accurate and current records in the turn management system (SuiteSpot) for all QC activity, inspection outcomes, and punch list statuses.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with the Leasing team to communicate turn status and anticipated rent-ready dates.
  • Identify recurring quality failure patterns and contribute to vendor feedback and improvement processes.

Requirements:

  • 2–3 years of experience in construction quality control, property management operations, or a related field.
  • Solid understanding of residential construction standards, including what constitutes rent-ready condition across key trade categories.
  • Ability to review and interpret proof-of-work documentation, scope completions, and vendor-submitted photos against approved standards.
  • Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple active turns simultaneously at various stages of the QC process.
  • Clear and professional communication skills for vendor coordination, internal escalation, and cross-functional collaboration with Leasing.
  • Urgency-driven mindset with a strong sense of accountability for inspection timelines and move-in readiness.
  • Proficiency in construction or property management platforms (SuiteSpot experience a plus).
