Interest and passion for the construction industry
What a Successful Candidate Looks Like
Enthusiasm & Drive: Be punctual and dedicated, stay until work is done, arrive early for meetings, and be a proactive team player. Take initiative, represent the company professionally, and build trust with stakeholders. Proactively seek ways to contribute to team success and maintain a positive attitude.
Delivery & Performance: Reliably meet role expectations and commitments, follow Clark’s standard procedures, own responsibilities, and demonstrate responsiveness with a sense of urgency.
Learning & Growth: Immerse yourself in Clark’s culture and community, fulfill corporate learning requirements, be engaged, accountable, self‑directed, and curious. Continuously build technical expertise and business acumen.
The Physical Side of the Role:
This is an active, hands‑on role. Expect to be on your feet frequently, navigating active job sites with uneven terrain, stairs, ladders, and hoists. The work is physically demanding and requires a full range of motion, including bending, kneeling, and reaching. You’ll need to be comfortable frequently lifting and carrying materials up to 25 pounds, and occasionally up to 50 pounds. This role requires effective communication and visual acuity for reading plans and inspecting work. Desk time in the office may require prolonged sitting for tasks such as computer work, document review, and meetings.
Your Work Environment:
You’ll spend a significant amount of time on active construction sites, which means being adaptable to all kinds of weather and moderate to loud noise levels, and comfortable in elevated or confined work areas with moving mechanical equipment and fast‑paced project dynamics. You will also spend time in a typical office setting with moderate noise levels. Safety is our top priority; you’ll be expected to follow Clark Construction’s safety policies and procedures, and all applicable laws, at all locations.
Our High‑Performing Culture:
This is a demanding, high‑performance environment. We look for candidates who are energized by challenge, thrive under pressure, and are prepared to achieve exceptional results. Success requires significant commitment, including flexibility to work extended hours, especially during critical project phases or client deadlines. In addition to regular hours, there will be occasions where business needs require your attention for time‑sensitive matters or emergencies. You are expected to monitor and respond to communications (phone calls, emails, text messages) as required to address these situations effectively. Your ability to manage expectations and respond when critical issues arise is key to your success and our collective success as a team.
A Drug Free Workplace:
Clark promotes a drug‑free workplace. A pre‑employment drug “fitness for duty” screening is required, and the company conducts random quarterly drug “fitness for duty” tests.
Clark offers a total compensation package that includes base salary, bonus potential, and a comprehensive benefits package including health, dental, and vision benefits, paid time off, retirement/401k, and company contribution plan. Additional benefits include life insurance, commuter benefit, short‑ and long‑term disability, fitness reimbursement, FSA, tuition reimbursement, backup daycare, tutoring & family support benefits, EAP/Work‑Life assistance, and a holiday contribution program. For this role the base salary range is $62,500–87,500. Compensation may vary outside of this range depending on a number of factors, including a candidate’s education, experience, skills, and geographic location. Base pay is one part of the Total Compensation Package that is provided to compensate and recognize employees for their work.
