Job description

About J+M Infrastructure

We are a company that is founded on family values. Our mission is "Serve Others Through the Infrastructure We Build," where we specialize in underground utilities and piping. Our small team is our family, and we invest in their growth and well-being through training, support, and recognition.

Why You Might Love Working Here

• Family-Oriented Culture: Jacob, our founder, takes a personal, hands‑on approach with every project and team member.
• Mission-Driven Work: Our mission, “Serve Others Through the Infrastructure We Build,” isn’t just a statement. We aim to “Serve one another humbly in love... Gal: 5:13.”
• Essential Impact: We lay the solid foundation for all types of construction to provide safer roads, smarter drainage, and modern utilities that keep communities and businesses safe.

How You'll Get To Contribute

As we grow to meet a rising backlog of projects, you’ll keep crews aligned, clients reassured, and jobs delivered the right way every time, from first boots on site to the last handshake.

What You’ll Get To Do

• Run efficient and smooth multi‑site operations that, above all else, prioritize crew safety
• Deliver successful $2.5M to $11M projects, including managing blueprints, plans, schedules, production, materials, equipment, and subcontractors
• Drive high‑quality sitework with precise material quantities, surveys, layouts, grading, excavation, demolition, underground pipework, and regulatory compliance
• Grow skilled, reliable crews of 5‑7 by combining mentorship, field tech, and hands‑on support with equipment operation and site development
• Create strong, trusting client partnerships through proactive communication, problem‑solving, and follow‑up

About You

• You desire to be a creative contributor to a small, rapidly growing company where things quickly evolve, you get to pitch in and work hands‑on, and your input truly matters
• You either already know and love the Lynchburg, VA area, or you've been longing to get to a place between the scenic Blue Ridge Mountains and the James River. Lynchburg is a place where you can spend your weekends hiking, fishing, biking, or just enjoying the views, while still living minutes from grocery stores, restaurants, and a growing downtown. You want the best of both worlds: outdoor living and small‑city comfort.
• You have at least 6 years of experience in site preparation, commercial civil underground utilities, surface infrastructure, land and public space improvements, and/or facility rehabilitation
• You’re OSHA 30 Certified
• You’re CPR/First Aid Certified
• You have a valid driver’s license with a clean driving history

Even Better, But Not Required

• You’re familiar with HCSS, Bluebeam, and/or Dropbox
• You have a CDL license
• You have VDOT experience and/or certifications

What’s in it for You

• Hit the ground running with all the tools you will need to lead your team effectively, including a company truck, fuel card, material supply credit card, $100 safety boot allowance, company phone, tablet, and laptop
• Administrative support from office and project management
• Dental and vision insurance are 80 % covered for you and your family
• 2 weeks of PTO/Vacation plus 7 paid holidays
• We’ll try to keep you assigned closest to home for optimal work/life balance, but if traveling for work is required, per company policy, a weekly meal per diem is provided, and hotels are taken care of
• Discretionary end‑of‑year bonus
• We’re working to roll out a full medical benefit plan within the next 60 days

Get Rewarded for Loyalty and Referrals

• Earn $2,000 for every successful hire you refer (uncapped, just taxed)
• Stay with us and earn loyalty bonuses along the way
  • 10 years = $10,000
  • 20 years = $20,000
  • 30 years = $30,000

Build Your Future Together

• You’ll have clear expectations and the chance to lead, grow, and advance your skillset. This role can grow into General Superintendent as we continue to build out our team.
• Most training happens hands‑on in the field, with mentorship and role, process, or technology‑specific support to help everyone succeed
• Team events like holiday parties, baseball games, and fishing trips give you time to connect with your crew off the clock.

FAQs

• Typical hours: Monday - Friday 7 am - 5 pm with occasional OT/weekend work as needed
• Work location: This position is on‑site, typically within a 2‑hour radius of Lynchburg, VA
