This is an excellent opportunity to join a company that is well known in their construction segment and work directly for an owner who is admired, respected, and widely known in our community as a “good person” who is ethical with a strong moral compass. Enjoy the chance to work for a very intelligent and supportive leader who is building the company methodically and thoughtfully.
