Concrete Carpenter

Work – Industrial Civil (Structural Gradebeams, Pile Caps, & Slabs)

Duration – ~12-week temporary, project-based (July start) — strong potential to go permanent

You know formwork — flatwork and structural. Come build the complex civil infrastructure on a major industrial build.

Why this is worth your time

• Pay for what you bring. Competitive rate set to your real experience and competency — not a flat band.

• Serious structural work. Building heavy formwork layouts for major civil infrastructure: gradebeams, pile caps, and large industrial slabs.
• A team that means it. Quality, safety, and accountability are non-negotiable here.
• A future, not just a job. Project-based entry with a strong path to go permanent — based on performance and fit.
