“IT’S NOT WHAT YOU ACHIEVE, IT’S WHAT YOU OVERCOME. THAT’S WHAT DEFINES YOUR CAREER.“ C O N T R I B U T E T O A L E G A C Y B I G G E R T H A N YOURSELF CARLTON FISK A STORY OF TWO STONE MASONS “A man approached two stone masons at work. He asks the first, “What is your job?” The man replies, “I am a stone mason. I cut the stone and place it in this wall. It is tedious, sweaty work that wears you down by the end of the day.” The man approaches the second stone mason, asking him, “What is your job?” The second replies, “I am an artist. I am building this beautiful cathedral that will stand against time. My grandchildren’s grandchildren will be able to admire my work. It is tedious, sweaty work that rewards me every day.”

“I enjoy working at Team Elmer’s for various reasons. I am working for a company that has a proven track record for reliability, perfection, and professionalism. I get to work in my community to make it a better place for families and businesses to live, work, and play in. When a project is finished and I can step back and take in the scenery, knowing I was part of a crew of men and women working toward a greater goal, that is pure satisfaction.” RON EDGINGTON EXCAVATION FOREMAN “One of the things that surprised me starting out was how friendly and helpful my co-workers were. If you keep a good attitude, aren’t afraid to get your hands dirty, bust your hump, and are willing to listen and learn, people are generally good to return the favor and show you the ropes. I suppose that’s true anywhere, but I found it to be remarkable here. Not a lot of “new guy” treatment. And that helps to get your feet under you and make for a long-term career prospect.” JORDAN WILLIAMS QUALITY CONTROL LIZ MERO ASPHALT LABORER “I enjoy the physical and mental challenges of my position here at Team Elmer’s. The scenery is always changing and I’m constantly learning new things every day about the job and myself. Working here gives me the ability to provide a great life for my daughter. When lay off time comes in the winter, this makes me available to attend all of her school functions. The days are long and the work is hard, but it has all been worth it.” A MEANINGFUL CAREER A MEANINGFUL CAREER Team Elmer’s has several divisions that allow you to develop a career to build a better community for your family, neighbors, and state, through infrastructure development. You create the roads your family will travel on, deliver concrete to the structures your grandchildren will attend, and install the safe drinking water systems that will sustain your community. Most positions require a fast paced work ethic with attention to detail and a positive, problem solving attitude. If you like to overcome obstacles, and make the world a better place, contact Team Elmer’s. WE WANT TO MEET YOU.
WE BUILD BETTER COMMUNITIES We embrace the “team” in Team Elmer’s. Our team isn’t just our crews or the company as a whole, it’s also comprised of our community and clients. We believe every person on the team matters and we commit to treating all people that way. Whether it’s our co-workers, clients, or community, we are here to serve others. What does that mean? It means treating people with kindness and respect, creating an access point for businesses during construction, smiling and waving from a Team Elmer’s vehicle, or carrying groceries for our neighbor when their driveway is blocked due to construction. We don’t just do our job, we go above and beyond to make our customers and community happy. We build community with integrity, quality, and service. We do the right thing even when no one is looking. We finish quality work, and make sure everything we do is done right the first time. We provide service that leaves the customer coming back. BE RADICALLY DIFFERENT BUILD BETTER COMMUNITES PEOPLE MATTER
