What are the responsibilities and job description for the Motor Grader Fine Grade Operator position at LCI-Lineberger?
LCI-Lineberger Construction is a full-service construction firm located in Lancaster, SC, providing heavy highway and civil construction projects in the region for more than thirty years. Our employees enjoy competitive pay, excellent benefits, and a 30-hour guarantee. Apply today and join a professional team focused on safety, quality and production.
We are currently seeking an experienced fine grade Motor Grader Operator to join our Reclamation Crew. Only apply if:
You are the operator who can hold grade, read the job, and make the whole crew better!
We aren’t looking for someone to just steer the machine. We are looking for a Fine Grade Specialist who takes pride in precision—someone who understands drainage, cross slope, and subgrade tolerances, and knows how to leave the job ready for the next operation without rework.
Our goal is simple: build heavy highway reclamation projects the right way, with production, safety, and quality working together. To get there, we only hire people who care about the details. If you are comfortable with "close enough," do not apply.
What We Demand:
• Precision Grade Control: You can fine grade for reclamation, base, and shoulder work with tight tolerances, proper drainage, and consistent cross slope.
• Production with Purpose: You keep material moving and the operation on pace without sacrificing finish quality or creating rework for the crew behind you.
• Situational Awareness: You understand the full operation—traffic control, milling/reclamation sequence, haul patterns, utilities, and the people working around your machine.
• Equipment Mastery: You know how to run and maintain a motor grader efficiently, read the ground, make smart adjustments, and communicate clearly with supervisors and grade checkers.
What You Get:
• Reliable Equipment: We provide solid, well-maintained iron so you can focus on the work—not fight the machine.
• Competitive Pay: We value operators who can produce quality work and carry their weight on demanding highway jobs.
• A Strong Crew: You’ll work with a team that understands highway production, expects accountability, and takes pride in doing the job right.
The Bottom Line:
If you’re the kind of operator who can shape a job right the first time, keep a crew moving, and take ownership of your work, we want to talk. If you need constant babysitting or you’re satisfied with average, this isn’t the seat for you.
