  • Inspect materials for damage and properly separate and dispose of damaged or scrap materials.
  • Use required safety equipment and follow company safety procedures.
  • Perform basic maintenance and follow established maintenance procedures.
  • Use basic carpentry skills as needed for yard and material-related tasks.
  • Read and accurately use a tape measure and square.
  • Measure, Client out, and work with materials accurately.
  • Look ahead and recognize the logical next step in a job instead of always waiting for direction.
  • Work independently when needed while also being a productive member of the team.
What We're Looking For
  • Previous experience in a construction, building materials, lumber, or similar yard environment is a plus.
  • Basic carpentry skills and comfort using hand tools.
  • Able to read a tape measure and use a square accurately.
  • Strong common sense and problem-solving skills.
  • Take initiative.
  • Comfortable working outdoors in direct sunlight, heat, and changing weather conditions.
  • Able to safely handle physical work and heavy materials throughout the shift.
  • Good communication skills and the ability to understand and communicate in English.
  • Able to learn new products, materials, equipment, and processes.
  • Dependable, safety-minded, and able to work at a steady pace in a busy yard environment.
  • Willing to work as part of a team while also being comfortable working independently.
