• Field Liaison: Conduct site visits to track progress, ensure adherence to blueprints/specs, and assist the Lead Foreman in resolving technical challenges.
• Safety & Compliance: Support the enforcement of OSHA standards and our internal safety programs to maintain our A+ reputation.
• Quality Control: Perform inspections to ensure all masonry work meets Holman’s rigorous standards for "beautiful workmanship."

Qualifications

• Experience: Minimum of 2+ years of experience in the construction industry (Masonry or Concrete experience is a significant plus).
• Education: Degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent field experience).
• Technical Skills: Proficiency in reading blueprints, architectural drawings, and technical specifications. Experience with estimating software and Microsoft Office Suite.
• Soft Skills: Strong communication skills and a "team-first" attitude. You must be comfortable speaking with general contractors, homeowners, and field crews.
• Requirements: A valid driver’s license and the ability to travel to project sites within a 90-mile radius of Farmville.

Why Join the Holman Team?

• Family Culture: We are a "close-knit" group where many employees have been with us for over 15 years.
• Stability: A consistent pipeline of diverse projects ranging from private estates to university residence halls.
• Career Growth: We invest in our people. You will receive mentorship from industry veterans who have been in the business for 30+ years.

Benefits:

• Competitive salary based on experience.
• Paid Holidays (5 days) and 1 week of Vacation.
• 401K Program with company contribution (after 1 year of service).
• A supportive environment where your voice is heard and your hard work is recognized.
