Coastal Built Contracting is hiring a full-time Field Operator for concrete restoration, coatings, waterproofing, repair work, and field execution across Gulf Coast properties.
This is not a warm-body labor position.
We work in occupied condominiums, homes, garages, balconies, walkways, stairwells, and shared spaces. The work has to be done correctly, cleanly, safely, and with respect for the property we are trusted to enter.
We are looking for people who want to become useful across multiple areas of the work: concrete repair, grinding, surface prep, coatings, waterproofing, painting, demolition, cleanup, material handling, documentation, staging, and problem-solving.
You do not need to know everything on day one.
You do need to show up serious, stay engaged, learn quickly, move with purpose, and take responsibility before someone has to chase you.
We want people who treat the trade like something to master, not something to tolerate until Friday.
WHAT WE DO
Coastal Built performs structural concrete repair, restoration, coatings, waterproofing, and related field work on Gulf Coast properties.
Typical work may include:
- Concrete repair and patching
- Grinding and surface preparation
- Crack repair
- Coating and waterproofing prep
- Painting and finish work
- Demolition and removal
- Dust control and cleanup
- Tool setup and breakdown
- Material staging
- Photo documentation
- Occupied-property protection
- General repair and restoration support
The work changes by the day. The standard does not.
THE FIVE STANDARDS WE HIRE FOR
This is a safety-sensitive field role.
We work around grinders, saws, lifts, ladders, cords, chemicals, vehicles, occupied properties, balconies, walkways, and other crew members. Everyone on site has to be clear, controlled, and safe.
Applicants may be required to pass a pre-employment drug screen, including THC, as a condition of employment.
No impairment, possession, or use of drugs or alcohol is permitted on company time, company property, or any jobsite.
This is not about judging what someone does off the clock. It is about whether they can be trusted around tools, people, property, and consequence.
We want people who want to learn the work.
Concrete repair, coatings, waterproofing, grinding, prep, patching, painting, detailing, cleanup, documentation, and jobsite execution all matter here.
This is not a place to hide inside one narrow task forever.
A strong operator pays attention, asks better questions, learns the sequence, studies the materials, watches how problems develop, and gets more useful every month.
You do not need to know everything on day one.
You do need to care enough to learn.
- Moves Without Being Chased
A field operator does not wait around for every obvious instruction.
If the task is known, start.
If the task is unclear, ask.
If the site is drifting, correct it.
If tools are scattered, reset them.
If trash is building up, remove it.
If another crew member is carrying something alone, step in.
If the next step is coming, prepare for it.
We do not confuse being present with contributing.
- Protects the Property, Crew, and Next Step
We work in occupied homes, condominiums, garages, balconies, walkways, stairwells, and shared spaces.
That access is earned.
A strong operator protects the client's property, the crew's workflow, the company's tools, and the next person who has to touch the work.
That means clean paths, controlled dust, staged materials, wrapped cords, organized tools, documented conditions, and no mess left behind for someone else.
The repair matters.
The way we leave the site matters too.
This is production-based field work.
Start times are set. End times depend on the day's sequence, weather, access, cure windows, cleanup, and closeout.
We do not walk off just because the clock hits a number.
The day is done when the day's goal is complete, the site is clean, tools are accounted for, materials are staged, and the next step is ready.
Some days are shorter. Some days run longer.
You are paid for the hours you work, but this is not a clock-punching culture.
If you are looking for a job where the main goal is to leave at the earliest possible minute, this is not the right fit.
PAY, OVERTIME, AND SATURDAY WORK
Pay is based on experience, usefulness, reliability, and ability to carry responsibility.
Overtime is paid at time and a half after 40 hours worked in a workweek.
Saturday work may be offered when the opportunity is there. These are usually project pushes, closeout days, special-access windows, or chances to get ahead while the work is available.
Approved Saturday work may include same-day pay when offered and agreed in advance. All hours are still tracked properly, and overtime applies when total weekly hours exceed 40.
If you want extra work, extra hours, and extra money when the opportunity is there, this can be a strong fit.

HOW TO APPLY
