- Maintain clean and organized work areas and support site safety culture
- Participate in daily toolbox talks and hazard assessments
- Perform manual labour as required (shoveling, cutting, tamping, etc.)

- 2+ years of experience in underground water and sewer installation is required
- Strong understanding of pipe elevations, trenching, and bedding requirements
