Job description

We have an immediate opening for a full time, Entry Level, Materials Testing Technician to be based at our Londonderry, New Hampshire office and work on construction projects in New Hampshire and parts of Vermont and Massachusetts.


To thrive in this role, you will not need experience - we will train you and pay you while you learn. You'll typically be working Monday through Friday, with occasional weekend work based on project needs. You can expect some early mornings and late evenings with regular overtime during the construction season. Most days you will drive to construction sites and perform field tests on materials like concrete, soil, aggregate, asphalt, grout, mortar, and steel. You will often be the only S.W. COLE team member on job sites, but you will interact with many people from other companies. The work can be physical at times: you will lift and carry samples of various construction materials including soil and concrete, walk through construction sites, or push a wheelbarrow. We complete this type of work year-round. Safely conducting yourself and the equipment we entrust to you is a must. S.W. COLE prioritizes and invests in the safety of its team members, so you will be provided with what you need to be safe on job sites including safety-toe boots. 


To perform this job, you will need to do some basic math, write or type your observations and test results, and regularly utilize a computer or tablet. Along the way you will learn to read and understand design plans and specifications. When you're not in the field you will work in our laboratory or be training for more certifications. 


Our core values are leadership, commitment, integrity and quality. We work as a team with a passion for construction whose focus is to provide high quality services to our clients while helping each other reach our goals. If this resonates with you, consider applying today!


We provide opportunities for extensive training and job experience to develop your skills and expertise and support your professional development to help you earn industry specific certifications. We also offer opportunities to fuel your growth and advancement in the company including an internal leadership development program, Stephen W. Cole Emerging Leaders Program.  

Interested?  Fill out the application, and upload your resume - and don't forget to include a cover letter to show us your writing skills and tell us why you are a good candidate to be our next team member!


You must be legally authorized to work in the United States for any employer.  We are not able to sponsor employment Visas at this time.
