Full Job Description

At C&C Industrial, Inc., we pride ourselves on Building Foundations & Relationships That Stand the Test of Time.

Position Summary
We are seeking a highly skilled Heavy Equipment Operator with proven experience in fine grading and finish work. This role is responsible for operating equipment with a high level of precision to achieve final grade tolerances required for structural concrete, pads, slabs, and site development.

This is not a bulk earthmoving role—we’re looking for operators who can consistently deliver clean, accurate, finish-grade results with minimal rework.

Key Responsibilities

Perform fine grading and finish work for building pads, slabs, footings, and site surfaces to exact elevations and tolerances
Operate dozers, motor graders, skid steers, and excavators with precision control, not just production speed
Read and interpret site plans, grade stakes, and laser/GPS grading systems
Work from hubs, string lines, and digital grade control to achieve tight tolerances (+/- as required by spec)
Coordinate closely with surveyors, superintendents, and concrete crews to ensure readiness for placement
Identify and correct grade issues proactively—own the finished product
Maintain equipment and ensure safe, efficient operation at all times

Required Skills & Experience

Demonstrated experience in fine grading / finish grading (not just rough grading or mass excavation)
Ability to achieve and maintain precise elevations and smooth, uniform surfaces
Proficiency with laser levels, grade rods, and/or GPS machine control systems
Strong understanding of soil behavior, compaction, and subgrade preparation
Ability to read and work from construction drawings and grade plans
High attention to detail—takes pride in clean, accurate finish work
Ability to work independently with minimal supervision

Preferred Qualifications

Experience supporting structural concrete work (footings, slabs, foundations)
GPS machine control experience (Trimble, Topcon, Leica, etc.)
Motor grader experience for finish work
Proven track record of passing grade checks without rework

What Sets You Apart

You don’t wait for someone to tell you it’s off—you already know
Your work is ready for the next trade the first time
You understand that finish grade is make-or-break for concrete crews
You take ownership of the final product, not just the seat time

Bottom Line

If you’re a production operator who moves dirt, this isn’t the role.
If you’re the one everyone calls when it has to be right the first time, we want to talk.

Pay

Actual pay will be based on candidate's related experience.

Join us in building the future! We’re dedicated to creating a safe, energetic workplace where your skills can grow while contributing to meaningful projects that make a difference in communities.

At C&C Industrial, Inc., we’re proud to be an equal opportunity employer. Everyone is welcome here—no matter your background, identity, or experience. We follow all North Carolina and federal laws that protect against discrimination.

Job Type: Full-time

Pay: $23.00 - $30.00 per hour

Benefits:

401(k)
Health insurance
Paid time off
