Description

You answer questions before they get asked. You catch problems a week out. You get restless when the work looks the same on Monday as it did on Friday, and you would rather be trusted to figure it out than managed through it.

You like being the one others come to when the call is hard. You take pride in bringing a job in under time and under budget, and you notice the small things a week before they turn into big ones.

If that sounds like you, keep reading.

Why Work With Us

Hunter Environmental is a growing company. That word matters here. You would join at a point where your ideas carry weight and how you work becomes part of how the team works.

We run varied jobs. Snow removal one week, urban infrastructure the next, municipal work after that. No two months look the same, and that is on purpose. People who thrive here get bored fast when the work repeats.

We hire people who take the work seriously and treat each other well. Foremen, superintendents, office staff, clients, and the people we work for at agencies and transit authorities. The relationships hold because the people running the jobs answer the phone, keep their word, and show up when it counts.

We stay out of the crew's way and back them up. We check our own paperwork. We tell each other the truth when something looks off. That is the culture we are building, and we want people who want to build it with us.

If that sounds like a place you would want to show up to, read on.

Please Don't Apply If

  • You want the same job every day with a fixed routine.
  • You wait to be told what to do next.
  • You send paperwork forward and hope somebody else catches the errors.
  • You go quiet when a customer is upset instead of picking up the phone.
  • You would rather sit at a desk than walk a jobsite in the weather.
  • You want to be managed step by step through your own project.

Our Ideal Applicant

You want the whole thing on your shoulders. From the first site walk to closeout, you own it, and you like it that way.

You write things down the moment they come up. You confirm details twice on anything going to a customer. You read the whole set of information before you make a call.

You walk the work in person on a regular schedule. You do not manage a jobsite from a screen. When a hard conversation needs to happen, you show up in person for it.

You keep the people around you informed without being prompted. The foreman knows the plan. The superintendent knows what is coming. The GM always knows where the job stands.

You pick up work that falls between roles. When you see something no one owns, you handle it and move on.

You ask when something looks off, right when you see it. You would rather raise a small question early than clean up a mess later.

You take pride in a clean paper trail and a closeout that stands up on the first pass.

What You'll Be Responsible For

The Project, Start to Finish

Each job is yours from the first site walk to closeout. You hold the schedule and the budget the whole way. You see problems coming and handle them early, before they cost time or money.

When the job is done, the work is done to standard, the paperwork is closed out, and the GM never had to step in to save it.

The Person With the Answer

On every project you run, you are the one with the answer. You know the site, the scope, and the plan well enough to make the call when a question comes up in the field or the office.

Our jobs vary widely. You come up to speed fast on whatever the next one demands.

Support for the Field

You work hand in hand with the foreman and the superintendent. The crews know what the job needs and have what it takes to do it because you are thinking a step ahead of them.

You visit sites on a regular schedule and spot trouble before it becomes a problem. You back up the field, and you stay out of their way.

Everyone in the Loop

You tie together everyone with a stake in the job. Internal teams, clients, municipalities, and transit authorities. When a customer raises a problem, you listen and you own it through to resolution.

Conflicts get handled before they grow. Relationships hold up because the person running the job answers for it.

Paperwork That Holds Up

You review the manager's paperwork so it is accurate before it moves forward. Every document goes out complete and correct the first time.

You handle the in-office administrative and planning work with the same care you bring to the field. Both sides of the job are yours.
