About the Role:

This role is designed for someone who takes pride in working with their hands and doesn’t mind getting dirty. It’s a full-time, 40-hour-per-week position spent almost entirely outdoors, with very little time behind a desk.

Over time, you’ll develop a working knowledge of the core disciplines that drive our projects, including earthwork, concrete, mechanical piping, and mechanical equipment installation.

In addition to hands-on trade exposure, you’ll gain an understanding of how key subcontractors contribute to the success of complex water and wastewater projects. This includes working alongside and coordinating with teams specializing in electrical systems, instrumentation and controls (I&C), and HVAC.
