Construction General Laborer

RM Steel Buildings

Job Description

Job Description

Are you someone who loves the smell of a fresh job site, thrives on hard work, and takes pride in building things from the ground up? If you genuinely want to be in the construction industry, we want you on our team.

Position Overview

We are seeking a dedicated, reliable, and energetic Construction General Laborer to join our crew. This isn't just a "placeholder" job—this is a role for individuals who love the construction environment, enjoy physical work, and want to sharpen their skills alongside experienced pros.

You will be the backbone of our active job sites, ensuring operations run smoothly, safely, and efficiently. If you have a solid foundation of construction experience and a true passion for the trade, you'll fit right in.

Key Responsibilities

  • Site Preparation & Maintenance: Clear work areas, dig trenches, set up scaffolding, and prep sites to ensure a safe, efficient workflow.
  • Material Handling: Load, unload, and organize construction materials, tools, and heavy equipment.
  • Tool Operation: Safely operate a variety of hand and power tools (e.g., jackhammers, drills, grinders, saws, and cement mixers).
  • Assisting Skilled Trades: Work directly alongside carpenters, masons, and site foremen, learning the ropes and lending a hand on specialized tasks.
  • Safety Enforcement: Strictly adhere to all OSHA regulations, wear required PPE, and maintain a clean, hazard-free job site.

What We Are Looking For (Requirements)

  • Proven Construction Experience: You already know your way around a job site. You understand the pace, the language, and the basic tools of the trade.
  • A True Passion for the Trade: You don't just show up for a paycheck; you actually want to work in construction and take pride in a hard day's work.
  • Physical Stamina: Ability to lift up to 50+ lbs regularly, stand, bend, and perform strenuous physical labor in various weather conditions (heat, cold, rain).
  • Reliability & Punctuality: You show up on time, every day, ready to give 100%.
  • Team Player Mentality: You take direction well, communicate clearly, and look out for the safety of your crewmates.
  • Transportation: Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation to get to various job sites.

Why You’ll Love Working With Us

  • Competitive Pay: $XX.XX – $XX.XX per hour (depending on your experience).
  • Growth Opportunities: We love to promote from within. Show us your dedication, and we will help you learn a specialized trade or move into a leadership/foreman role.
  • Great Crew Culture: Work with a team of look-out-for-each-other professionals who share your passion for building.
  • Consistent Work: Steady hours and a reliable pipeline of upcoming projects.
