Fremont, NH Jewett Construction Company, a New England regional design-build construction management firm and general contractor, has hired Mason Westover as an assistant project manager. Westover, a New Hampshire native, will help continue to strengthen Jewett’s commitment to clients throughout the Granite State and the rest of the Northeast.

Westover graduated from Wentworth Institute of Technology with a bachelor’s degree in Construction Management. Post-graduation, Westover started his career as a project coordinator where he assisted a project manager with daily activities within the special projects division. He developed schedules, oversaw project COI’s and contracts, oversaw project CO’s, developed cost estimates, procurement logs, logistic plans, meeting minute documentation and distribution, submittal and RFI submission and distribution, oversaw permit application process and inspection scheduling, and oversaw project closeout. He also communicated daily with subcontractors, clients, architects, and engineers. His knowledge of the construction community and his demonstrated past performance in his previous role make him an integral part of Jewett Construction’s continued growth.

When asked what his favorite thing about working at Jewett was, Mason said, “I really enjoy the scope and scale of our projects here at Jewett. Being able to work on both ground-up projects and fit-outs has allowed me to diversify my construction knowledge and has been a truly rewarding experience so far. Interacting with new trades and growing a network of top-class subcontractors has also been a highlight for me. I look forward to the future here!”
