Job description

Opportunity starts here.

At Velocity Constructors, an internship isn't about watching from the sidelines. We're an employee-owned general contractor specializing in municipal water and wastewater infrastructure, and our internship gives you real experience both in the field and alongside our project management team. You'll work with the people planning, managing and building infrastructure Colorado communities depend on every day. This isn't a shadow program. It's a pipeline.

What You'll Do

You’ll work alongside Velocity project teams in our Englewood office and on active project sites, gaining hands-on exposure to:

• Submittals, RFIs and change orders
• Budget and schedule tracking
• Field reporting and quality control
• Safety and project coordination
• Vendors, subcontractors, crews and equipment
• Estimating and preconstruction

You’ll learn from Project Managers and Superintendents and gain exposure to other areas of the business, including estimating, accounting and procurement.

One Internship. Two Career Paths.

Not sure yet which side of construction fits you best? Good. That's part of the experience as a Velocity intern. You'll spend the internship learning both sides of the business before deciding where you may want to take your career next.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Intern → Project Engineer → Assistant Project Manager → Project Manager
