What are the responsibilities and job description for the Construction Laborer - Crew Member | Sports Construction position at HiLine Sports Construction?
About the Position
HiLine Sports Construction is looking for dependable Crew Members to help build athletic facilities at schools, parks, colleges and sports complexes throughout the Southeast.
Our crews install netting systems, backstops, scoreboards, batting cages, football goal posts, shade structures and other specialty sports equipment.
This is construction work. Some days you may be installing specialized athletic equipment. Other days you may be digging holes, unloading steel, pouring concrete, operating equipment or working outside in difficult weather.
Every project is different, and we are willing to train the right person.
Construction experience is helpful, but it is not our most important requirement.
We are looking for people we can count on.
If you show up when you say you will, work hard, communicate, learn quickly and take pride in doing good work, we can teach you the rest.
What We Value
Show Up
Our crews are small, which means every person matters. We expect team members to arrive on time, ready to work and prepared for the day.
Work Hard
This is a physically demanding construction position. Some days will be harder than others. You should be comfortable working outside, lifting heavy materials and helping the crew do whatever is necessary to complete the project.
Communicate
Emergencies and unexpected problems happen. When they do, we expect clear and timely communication with your supervisor.
Follow Through
We value people who do what they say they are going to do, take responsibility for their work and can be trusted by the rest of the crew.
Be Willing to Learn
You do not need to know everything before joining HiLine. We are willing to train motivated employees who ask questions, accept coaching and want to develop new skills.
Responsibilities
- Install athletic facility equipment including netting systems, backstops, scoreboards, batting cages, goal posts, shade structures and related sports infrastructure.
- Load, unload and organize materials, tools and equipment.

Construction, steel erection, fencing, playground installation, equipment operation or related trade experience is preferred, but not required.
Pay and Growth
Starting pay is based on experience and qualifications.
Employees can earn additional pay as they develop useful field skills and complete company approved equipment training and certifications, including aerial lift and skid steer operation.
HiLine is growing, and dependable employees who demonstrate leadership and technical ability can advance into positions such as Lead Installer, Foreman and Superintendent.
We believe advancement should be earned through reliability, skill development, leadership and consistent performance.

- Overtime opportunities.
- Equipment and safety training.
- Opportunities to learn multiple areas of specialty sports construction.

Before You Apply
