🔎 Position Overview:
A well-established local utility company is currently seeking a General Laborer/Driver to support its underground construction and fiber optic installation operations. This is a physically active, hands-on role perfect for someone who enjoys working outdoors, being part of a team, and contributing to vital infrastructure projects across the region.
As a General Laborer/Driver, you'll play an essential role in supporting utility installation crews with daily job site operations — from digging trenches to collecting job data, and safely driving work trucks to and from job sites. If you have a strong work ethic, a Class B CDL, and a background or interest in construction, we want to hear from you!
🛠 Key Responsibilities:

Operate company vehicles to transport equipment, crew members, and materials to and from job sites.
- Data Entry:
Use an iPad to record and submit accurate daily job site data (locations, materials used, crew notes).
- Flagging & Traffic Control:
After training, help with setting up and maintaining a safe traffic flow around work zones (flagging certification provided).
- Site Cleanup & Equipment Handling:
Ensure that all work sites are maintained in a clean, safe, and organized manner. Assist in loading and unloading materials and tools.
✅ Qualifications & Requirements:
- Must have a valid CDL-B license and clean driving record (required to operate company trucks)
- Previous construction or utility labor experience preferred (trenching, flagging, or conduit installation is a plus)
