Construction - Field Laborer/Craftsman

At Velocity Constructors, Inc., we don't just build projects, we build careers, futures, and ownership.

Velocity is an employee-owned general contractor specializing in water and wastewater infrastructure throughout Colorado and the surrounding region. Since 2002, we've partnered with municipalities, utilities, engineers, and other public and private clients to build and improve the infrastructure communities rely on every day. Our field teams are at the heart of our work.

We're looking for dependable, hardworking Craftsmen and Laborers who want to be part of a team that takes pride in doing things the right way, safely, efficiently, and with quality that lasts. Whether you're bringing construction experience and an established craft skill or you're ready to learn and build your career in the field, there's room to grow at Velocity.

What You Bring

You don't have to know everything on day one. We're looking for people who show up ready to work, learn, contribute, and be part of the team.

You'll bring:

• A strong work ethic and dependable attendance
• A safety-first mindset
• Willingness to learn new construction skills and take direction
• Ability to work effectively as part of a field crew
• Pride in producing quality work
• Ability to perform physically demanding work and work outdoors in changing weather conditions
• A valid driver's license
• Construction experience is valuable, but we're also interested in candidates who are ready to learn and grow
• Experience in process piping, carpentry and/or concrete is especially valuable for Craftsman level candidates

What You'll Do

Reporting directly to the Project Superintendent, you'll work alongside the field team to help safely and efficiently build Velocity's water and wastewater projects. Depending on your experience and project needs, your work may include operating and maintaining construction equipment; preparing jobsites; loading and unloading materials; assisting skilled craft workers; assembling and dismantling temporary structures; and supporting excavation, backfilling and compaction activities. Experienced Craftsmen may also work more independently and apply established skills in areas such as process piping, carpentry and concrete to complete assigned construction activities.

What We're Looking For:

Every member of the crew is expected to maintain a clean and safe jobsite, follow established safety procedures, communicate with the Superintendent and other crew members, and pitch in wherever needed to help the project succeed.

To succeed we need team members who are:

• Dependable. Your crew can count on you to show up and be ready to work.
• Safety-minded. You understand that getting the job done matters, and getting everyone home safely matters more.
• Willing to learn. You're open to training, feedback, and developing new skills.
• A team player. Construction takes everyone working together. You're willing to help wherever you're needed.
• Proud of your work. You care about the quality of what you build and the role it plays in the communities we serve.

Working Conditions

This is an active construction position and requires the ability to perform strenuous physical work, lift and move materials weighing up to 75 pounds, navigate ladders, stairs and steep slopes, and work outdoors in varying weather and jobsite conditions.

Some travel may be required depending on project location, but our crews are home on weekends and holidays. Project locations vary. Travel and overnight stays may be required based on project assignments.

Why Velocity?

We want people who are looking for more than another construction job. We want people who want to build with us, grow with us, and take ownership in what we accomplish together. As an employee-owned company, our entire team has the opportunity to share in the success they help create. We believe in developing our people, promoting growth, recognizing hard work, and giving our team opportunities to expand their skills through hands-on experience and training. In our field you'll work on meaningful water and wastewater infrastructure projects throughout Colorado alongside experienced fellow Craftsmen, Laborers, Superintendents, Project Engineers, and Project Managers.
