Join a Growing Concrete Crew

Rockhard Construction is growing, and we are looking for an experienced Concrete Wall Specialist / Finisher to join our expanding team.

This position is a good fit for someone who has experience with poured foundation walls and concrete finishing. You should be comfortable setting and stripping wall forms, helping with layouts and pours, finishing concrete, and working alongside the crew from setup through cleanup.

You do not need to come in as a foreman, but you should have enough experience to contribute immediately, follow plans, solve problems, and help keep projects moving.

We are looking to hire one or two full-time team members as soon as possible.

What You Will Be Doing

Setting and stripping concrete wall forms
Preparing jobsites for foundation and flatwork pours

Helping wherever needed to complete the job safely and correctly

Most of our foundation and wall projects are located around Minooka, Yorkville, Shorewood, Grundy County, Kendall County, and surrounding communities.

Most of our concrete flatwork is located throughout LaSalle County.

Because our projects are spread across the area, applicants should be comfortable traveling to different jobsites.

What We Are Looking For

We are looking for someone with at least three years of concrete or foundation construction experience.

Experience is important, but so is how you show up every day. We want someone who works hard, contributes to the crew, maintains a good attitude, and takes pride in quality work.

You should have:

At least three years of concrete construction experience
Experience with poured foundation walls
Experience setting and stripping wall forms
Concrete finishing experience
The ability to read plans and layouts
A valid driver’s license
Reliable transportation

Our team is energetic, hardworking, and focused on building something bigger. Everyone is expected to contribute, get their hands dirty, help the crew, and do what is needed to get the job done.

We work hard, but we also want the jobsite to be a place where people communicate, work together, and treat each other with respect.

We are looking for someone who is consistent, dependable, and ready to be part of a team. You do not need to know everything, but you need to bring real experience, a good attitude, and a willingness to keep getting better.
