The Physical Side of the Role:
A good portion of your day will be spent at a desk, so you should be comfortable with prolonged sitting while working on a computer, handling documents, or participating in meetings. The role requires the ability to communicate effectively, as well as visual acuity for reviewing documents and performing computer work. You'll also need to be able to move around the office and travel occasionally to various locations, including construction sites, using different modes of transportation. You should be able to lift and move objects up to 10 pounds regularly, and up to 25 pounds on occasion (think a box of files or small office equipment).
Your Work Environment:
Your primary workspace will be in our professional office, which has a typical, quiet-to-moderate noise and light levels. As part of your work, you may also be required to visit active construction sites. These environments are naturally more dynamic and can include exposure to outdoor weather conditions, louder noise, and moving equipment. Your safety is our top priority, and you'll be expected to follow Clark Construction's safety policies and procedures, and all applicable laws, at all locations.
Our High-Performing Culture:
This is a demanding, high-performance environment. We are looking for candidates who are energized by challenge, thrive under pressure, and are prepared to do what it takes to achieve exceptional results. Success in this role requires significant commitment, including flexibility to work extended hours, especially during critical project phases or client deadlines.
A Drug Free Workplace:
Clark promotes a drug free workplace. A pre-employment fitness for duty screening is required, and random fitness for duty tests of employees are conducted quarterly.
