What are the responsibilities and job description for the Construction & Landscape/Hardscape Crew Leader position at The Dunn-Wright Companies?
Dunn-Wright Hartville, Ohio area Full-time | Monday–Friday Typical hours: 7:00 AM–3:30 PM Pay: $28–$34 per hour
Dunn-Wright is looking for an experienced construction professional capable of developing into—or immediately stepping into—a crew-leader position.
We perform a wide range of construction and property-improvement work including hardscaping, excavation, landscaping, roofing and general construction.
We’re looking for someone who doesn’t simply know how to perform construction work, but can take responsibility for getting a job done correctly.
Responsibilities
Depending on the project, work may include:
- General construction and remodeling
- Hardscape and paver installation
- Retaining-wall construction
- Excavation and grading
- Drainage installation
- Roofing and exterior construction
- Concrete and masonry-related work
- Demolition and site preparation
- Operating skid steers, excavators and other equipment
- Truck and trailer operation
- Job layout and elevations
- Material planning and organization
- Directing and training less-experienced employees
- Maintaining an organized and safe jobsite
- Communicating professionally with customers
What We’re Looking For
The right candidate should eventually be capable of receiving a project assignment and taking responsibility for the crew, equipment, materials, quality and completion of that project.
Relevant experience may include:
- Construction
- Hardscaping
- Excavation
- Carpentry
- Roofing
- Masonry
- Landscape construction
- Heavy-equipment operation
- Truck and trailer operation
- Crew supervision
You don’t have to be an expert in every trade we perform. However, you need a strong construction background, good judgment and the ability to learn unfamiliar work.
Requirements
- Valid driver’s license
- Your own reliable vehicle to get to work
- Strong attendance and punctuality
- Construction/trade experience
- Ability to perform physical work
- Ability to work outdoors in varying weather
- Comfortable working on ladders and roofs
- Ability to safely operate tools and equipment
- Ability to lead and train other employees
- Ability to work independently
- Professional behavior around customers
- Willingness to occasionally work later than 3:30 PM when required to properly complete a project
Experience towing equipment trailers and operating skid steers or excavators is strongly preferred.
Compensation
$28–$34 per hour depending on experience, demonstrated skills and level of responsibility.
We aren’t interested in keeping a capable employee at the same wage while asking them to continually take on more responsibility.
Our compensation structure is designed to reward employees who become more valuable to the company.
Eligible compensation and benefits include:
- Competitive hourly compensation
- Performance/pay reviews
- Skill-based raises
- Paid time off
- Paid holidays
- Reliability incentives
- Longevity/retention bonuses
- Project-performance bonuses for qualified crew leaders
- Opportunities for increased responsibility and compensation
A strong crew leader who can independently manage projects, employees, equipment and customers will have the opportunity to earn significantly more than base hourly compensation.
What Matters to Us
We’re looking for someone who takes pride in being able to drive past a completed project and say:
“We built that, and we built it right.”
We want someone interested in becoming a long-term part of Dunn-Wright rather than simply moving from contractor to contractor for another dollar an hour.
If you’re an experienced construction professional who wants responsibility, variety and the opportunity to be rewarded for producing good work, we’d like to talk to you.
Apply through Indeed with your work history and a brief description of the projects, equipment and trades you’re experienced with.
