Concrete Superintendent

Backus Concrete is looking to add another exceptional member to our team. The right person for the job will have a minimum of 7 years of relevant concrete experience. We are looking for someone who knows the ins and outs of how concrete works, how to read plans, how to manage a concrete project, how to plan and forecast the needs for multiple field crews, and how to give top of the line customer service to our valued customers.

We are a company that prides ourselves on hard work. We are a family that takes on projects that everyone else runs away from. One minute you will find yourself looking over a set of plans for an upcoming project, the next minute you will help the field crews in the field set elevations, and the minute after that you will be doing a pre-job walk through with a customer. If you are looking for a 9-5 desk job then our company probably will not be the best fit for you. If you are looking for a fast paced, challenging, yet rewarding career with excellent compensation then look no further and apply today.
