Job description

With offices in Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana, and Ohio, Pepper Construction is a national general contracting and construction management firm that primarily serves the private sector. Pepper Construction provides clients the experience and resources of a national company, combined with the hands-on approach of a local company.

Job Title: 2027 Summer Project Engineer Intern

Location: Chicagoland Area

COMPANY OVERVIEW:

Pepper leads the construction industry with an energy and ambition uncommon in our time. We seek out new methods and technologies that support your vision with a practical approach, and we apply our nearly 100 years of expertise to ensure the precision, quality and confidence that comes from working alongside a partner that's dedicated to performance.

Every building starts with a solid foundation, it's people. At Pepper, we create leaders at every level and generate momentum in every market we serve by rewarding new thinking and respecting the long-standing values that have made our company unique for generations. You'll see the impact of our leadership in everything we do - from the Preconstruction work, we deliver to the decisions we make in the field to the relationships we form and keep fresh for years to come.

As a family-owned and operated company, we take building personally.

POSITION SUMMARY:

Pepper Construction Company is looking for qualified, intelligent students with a passion for learning about the construction industry to come and experience life as a General Contractor.

You will be paired with a Project Manager and/or Superintendent on one of our construction teams in the Chicagoland area. You will work directly with many aspects of project management, including but not limited to, processing submittals, take-offs, potentially preparing budgets and attending job site/owner meetings. We intend to expose you to real-life situations in the field and in the office. You will also be involved in training sessions, jobsite tours and safety. You will participate in an intern project competition simulating the process of bidding and winning work as a general contractor.

POSITION REQUIREMENTS:

  • Current college student entering their Sophomore, Junior, or Senior year studying Construction Management, Civil Engineering, or Construction Engineering.
  • Good communication skills - verbal and written
  • Strong computer skills that allow you to learn and understand new technology and put it into practice quickly
  • A confidence that allows you to work independently but a desire to be part of a team and work collaboratively in it
  • Skilled at multitasking, but never taking your eye off the details that can change the outcome
  • Reliable self-transportation to and from work-related activities and assignments daily
  • Ability to work in the Chicagoland area including far north and/or south suburbs
  • Able to participate in the 12-week program from Memorial Day to Mid-August in the Chicagoland area

The salary for this position is $20-$24/hour based on graduation year.
