Ideal Candidate

The ideal candidate is someone who enjoys being the person who keeps the operation organized.

They understand that good administrative work directly impacts profitability, customer service, scheduling, and field production. They are comfortable taking ownership of software and processes rather than waiting for someone else to tell them what to do.

We are looking for someone who can grow with the company and eventually become a key administrative resource for both our maintenance and construction operations.
