Original job description

This internship may be placed in one or all of these divisions depending on specialization, contextual demand, and/or preference. The construction labourer internship is physically demanding and involves being outdoors for the majority of the day in all types of weather. Construction labourer interns benefit from natural job rotation, physical activity, and partake in a wide variety of on-site assignments which are essential to project completion.

The hours of work will consistently range from 25 to 50 hours per week, (7 am–5 pm) depending on the contract and timeline - overtime, weekends and/or evenings may also be required with regards to the aforementioned.

Construction labourer interns at MGI will come across and engage with tasks such as:

Using equipment, placing materials accurately and according to drawings and/or direction
Operating skid steers, mini excavators and occasionally heavy equipment
Digging ditches or trenches, backfilling excavations, or compacting and levelling the earth to grade specifications, using picks, shovels, and other tools
Performing demolition, excavation, and compaction activities
Removing rubble and other debris at job sites
Physical demolition and/or abatement
Performing site preparation and clean-up duties
Signal equipment operators to facilitate alignment, movement, or adjustment of machinery, equipment, or materials
Control traffic that passes through, near, or around the work zones

‍

Reliable transportation, such as a G-license
Strong communication and learning ability
Manual dexterity in operating gas-powered handheld equipment
A love for the outdoors: summer through winter
Have their own safety footwear
A keen awareness of safety protocol
Experience within the industry
Possess a valid or be willing to obtain the following certifications: WHIMIS, Elevated/Aerial Work Platform, Working at Heights/Fall Arrest

We offer competitive salaries on experience, knowledge, and education. MGI also provides attractive benefits that extend to health, dental, vision insurance, retirement planning, pension plans, professional development, training credits, wellness programs, travel/vacation days, discounts on company products and services, commuter benefits, and team bonding events to maintain a healthy and inviting company culture.

Our mission is very clear: we are dedicated to providing our clients with cost-effective and timely service; our employees with a safe and rewarding workplace; and our planet with environmentally sound business strategies and operating procedures. We look to situate development projects not as a ‘one-off’ but contextualize them within the broader community and actively look to redefine construction as a lifestyle, not just a ‘job.’

We realize that some seek employment where others are driven by a greater civic-duty. It is this latter segment, those who are self-motivated, passionate, entrepreneurial in spirit while egoless in nature, that we believe are best suited for our collective role in #ConstructingHistory.
