The physical demands and work environment characteristics described here are representative of those that must be met by an employee to successfully perform the essential functions of this job.

  • Physical Demands: This is not a sedentary position. Work consists of moderate to heavy physical activity. Employees must be able to walk and move around regularly and consistently throughout an active construction site daily, including climbing ladders and stairs, standing for extended periods, and accessing temporary routes and scaffolding while work is being performed. Employees are required to bend and reach on a regular and consistent basis, and to hold, grasp, turn, lift and/or move objects up to 50 lbs. while onsite. Employees must be able to traverse the jobsite and avoid obstacles and hazards, while always maintaining security and safety measures. Personal protective equipment (PPE) – including but not limited to hard hats, face/eye gear, and safety vests – will be provided by the Company to the employee and must be worn by the employee at all times while on the jobsite. The work requires the ability to speak and to clearly see, hear, understand, and distinguish speech and/or other sounds (e.g., machinery, alarms, traffic).
  • Work Environment: Primary work is performed at an active construction site. Some work, such as conducting phone calls and meetings, use of a computer or other technology, written and electronic documentation, and reviewing contracts/blueprints/budgets, may be conducted in a jobsite trailer or temporary office onsite, but these locations will often require employees to be able to navigate tight quarters with limited turnaround space and exterior stairs. The noise level in the work environment varies and could reach moderate to extreme levels for short periods of time. Work is subject to inflexible deadlines and the employee may be subject to work beyond the normal scheduled work hours and in extreme weather conditions.
  • Telework: The work of Donohoe Construction Field positions does not lend itself to telework or work from home opportunities.

The expected base pay range for this position is $100,000 - $110,000. Salary ranges are dependent on a variety of factors such as qualifications and experience.
