As a General Contractor Apprentice, your daily tasks often include assisting with site preparation, organizing materials, and supporting skilled tradespeople such as carpenters or electricians. You'll also help maintain safety standards, track project progress, and communicate updates to supervisors or team leads. This hands-on role offers valuable exposure to all phases of construction and provides a strong foundation for advancing toward a licensed general contractor position.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a general contractor apprentice?

To thrive as a General Contractor Apprentice, you need a basic understanding of construction principles, safety protocols, and often a high school diploma or equivalent. Familiarity with hand and power tools, construction management software, and OSHA safety certification is typically required. Strong communication, reliability, and a willingness to learn are critical soft skills that set apprentices apart. These skills and qualifications ensure safe, efficient work and provide a solid foundation for growth in the construction industry.

How much do apprentice general contractors make?

Apprentice general contractors typically earn between $15 and $25 per hour, depending on experience, location, and the complexity of projects. As they gain skills and certifications, their wages tend to increase, and they may progress to higher-paying roles in construction management.

Job description

FNF Construction, Inc. is a general contractor providing heavy civil construction services throughout the Southwestern United States.

We are seeking a General Equipment Operator with at least 5 years of experience.

The Equipment Operator performs skilled operation of heavy and light construction equipment to support earthwork, grading, demolition, pipe installation, and roadway construction activities. This position requires proficiency with equipment such as bulldozers, loaders, excavators, rollers, and backhoes, including the ability to cut grade, work around underground utilities, and use GPS machine controls when required. Operators are responsible for conducting daily precheck, posttrip, fueling, and safety inspections, completing equipment status reports, and reporting mechanical issues promptly. Work involves physical tasks such as climbing, kneeling, steering, twisting, and occasional lifting up to 100 pounds. This is a safetysensitive position requiring strict adherence to all safety procedures. Travel to various job sites is required.

To perform this job successfully, an individual must be able to perform each essential duty satisfactorily. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable qualified individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions.

  • Follow all safetysensitive protocols and operate equipment in compliance with company, OSHA, and project safety standards.
  • Operate heavy and light construction equipment including bulldozers, frontend loaders, excavators, rollers, backhoes, and related machinery in accordance with all company safety programs.
  • Perform earthwork operations such as excavation, trenching, grading, backfilling, slope cutting, ditch shaping, and structure demolition.
  • Install underground utilities including sewer and water lines, storm drains, and RCP/CM pipe while working safely around existing utilities.
  • Use GPS machine controls and follow grade stakes, plans, and directions from supervisors to achieve required tolerances.
  • Conduct daily equipment inspections including precheck, posttrip, fueling, and routine maintenance such as greasing, cleaning, and fluid checks.
  • Complete daily equipment status reports and promptly report defects, hazards, or repair needs to supervision.
  • Use hand tools such as wrenches and other tools required for minor adjustments or maintenance.
  • Maintain clean, organized, and safe work areas around equipment and active construction zones.
  • Perform physical motions required for equipment operation, including climbing, stretching, sitting, steering, twisting, kneeling, and squatting.
  • Lift and carry materials up to 100 pounds as needed for equipment support or ground tasks.
  • Work in varying weather conditions, including exposure to heat, cold, dust, and uneven terrain.
  • Assist crews with labor tasks when equipment operation is not required.
  • Travel to and from job sites and work overtime as needed to meet project schedules.
