Construction Cleaner -- URGENTLY HIRING

POSITION SUMMARY

The Construction Cleaner keeps assigned job sites clean, organized, and ready for the next trade. The position performs rough, final, and punch-phase construction cleaning — debris removal, sweeping and vacuuming, wiping down and detailing finished surfaces, glass and fixture cleaning, and overspray and adhesive removal — and supports RPG crews by staging materials and maintaining housekeeping in work areas, job trailers, and storage areas. Prior construction cleaning experience is required; the role must know how to work safely around active trades and how to clean finished surfaces without damaging them.
