The Opportunity

The Material Handler keeps materials moving on the jobsite. You will receive and organize materials in the central laydown area, deliver them to crews where the work is happening, help track inventory, and operate the forklifts, telehandlers, and lifts that make it possible.

No electrical experience is required, and we provide the equipment training. What matters is that you are dependable, safety-minded, and good at keeping things organized when a site gets busy. For a lot of people, this role is a first door into commercial construction.

What You'll Do

Move the Material

• Keep materials organized in a central laydown area and maintain inventory of stocked materials.
• Deliver materials from the laydown area to specific work locations as requested by field leaders.
• Assist with inventory tracking so records of materials and tools stay accurate.
• Support the logistics and warehouse teams by coordinating material movement as needed.

Operate the Equipment

• Operate on-site equipment including forklifts, telehandlers, and aerial lift platforms.
• Report equipment discrepancies or operating issues to supervisors promptly.
• Follow safety guidelines and proper handling procedures for all materials and equipment.

Keep the Site Right

Qualifications

We recognize that experience comes from many paths. An equivalent combination of education, certification, and experience that results in successful performance of the job is welcomed. Additional education may substitute for required experience on a one-for-one year basis, or vice versa.

Work Environment

This is a field-based role performed on active construction sites, both indoors and outdoors, with exposure to weather and jobsite conditions. The role involves lifting up to 50 pounds, climbing, crawling, working at heights, and working in confined spaces, and requires wearing personal protective equipment. Expect a fast-paced environment that calls for focus and sound judgment under pressure.
