• Ability to take ownership of projects and perform with minimal ramp-up.
• Fluent English required; Spanish language skills are a plus.
• Dependable, organized, and quality-focused with a strong work ethic.
• Commercial construction experience required; residential and condominium experience alone will not qualify.

Benefits
