Yard Hand/Associate

Posted Feb 7, 2022

Description

  • Outside 
  • Customer Service 
  • Full Time: 5 days a week. 8 hour shift (7-4, 8-5, flexible). Most likely Saturdays. Sundays off.

Our yard associates are both brains and brawn at Minick Materials. Every customer who enters the yard is greeted by our boots-on-the-ground crew ready to show them around, offer product knowledge, and load their selections. Our wide customer base makes each day a little different, but our always- improving training program keeps our staff ready to offer expert-level customer service. Whether it be a backyard DIY’er, or a commercial contractor, our yard associates are a crucial part of bringing each customers’ vision to life. 


Work day may periodically extend beyond 8 hours as activity and responsibility dictates; some nighttime and weekend work may be required - particularly during our busy Spring season.  Attention to detail, fast paced activity and response time to customer and/or company requirements, and results oriented expectations could be the norm.
