What you bring
construction degree
us authorized
heavy lifting
reliable transport
collaborative
eager learner
  • You are working towards a degree in Construction Management, Concrete Industry Management, Civil Engineering, or a related field.
  • You'll be joining a team that builds. Our construction sites can have rough terrain and are operational during inclement weather (as long as it is safe). Your work hours may fluctuate based on the project activities. As an integral part of the team, you have a reliable method of getting to job sites daily and on time.
  • We build impressive structures. You will likely perform labor at elevation, sometimes at heights multiple stories above ground level. While on the job site, you may need to lift at least 50 pounds.
  • You must be legally authorized to work in the US for any employer without sponsorship now or in the future.
  • We are looking for people who have a drive to excel. Our interns do not always have experience on a commercial construction site. We will empower you with what you need to succeed on the job. Our most successful intern candidates are action-oriented, collaborative, and eager to learn.
