Construction is booming. The demand for concrete, asphalt and other construction services seems to grow every year and Staker Parson Materials & Construction needs motivated people to join their team. The company is currently looking for estimators and quality control technicians to help continue innovating and driving Utah's construction industry forward.
Estimators stay busy, working with estimating managers on bids, calculating the scope of a project and assisting with scheduling resources and other tasks. Estimators see a project through from day one to the final day. Travel is not required for the Staker Parson estimating team and a hybrid work-from-home/in-office schedule is available.
The estimating and sales teams work closely together on projects, and as a result, develop tight-knit bonds. Staker Parson considers itself a family of families. The relationships built working together last for a lifetime or even generations.
The same can be said for the company's team of quality control technicians and managers, who collaborate at the labs, creating asphalt and concrete mixes to the specifications for each project.
The days go by fast, with a mix of indoor and outdoor work taking samples from different piles, adjusting mixes and communicating with plant staff. Some technicians also spend time in the field, but they're always back home to their families at the end of a shift.
Matt Alter, an estimator, says working at Staker Parson has allowed him to learn from the very best in the materials industry.
"There is significant autonomy and trust, allowing me to work in a structured-but-flexible environment. I enjoy the challenge and variety as an estimator, where I can be engaged in anything from business development to project execution. The competitive nature of bidding is also rewarding," he says.
For Staker Parson, it's about using all we have achieved to make things better, not just about making better things. Donating building materials to memorials, Habitat for Humanity and local schools are just a few examples of the tangible good we do in the communities we serve. Staker Parson is a family of families.
