Load and transport materials and equipment safely
Conduct daily equipment inspections and maintain machinery in proper working condition
Promote a safe, productive work environment and ensure all safety protocols, best practices, and company procedures are followed at all times
Other duties as assigned.

Job Requirements

High School diploma, or equivalent
Team-oriented mindset with a positive attitude, strong work ethic, and attention to detail
Proven ability to safely and efficiently operate excavators, skid steers, and/or loaders
Strong understanding of excavation, grading, and material placement techniques
Experience supporting hardscape or landscape construction projects, preferred
Class A CDL with air brakes endorsement, preferred
Ability to lift 50+ pounds repeatedly throughout the workday
Reliable attendance and ability to work long days as project schedules require
