Job Description

Build More Than Pools. Build a Career. At Anderson Poolworks, we build custom residential and commercial aquatic projects throughout Oregon and beyond. Our projects combine construction, plumbing, mechanical systems, concrete, equipment installation, and specialty finishes to create pools and aquatic environments built to last. We are looking for dependable, motivated individuals who want more than just a job. We want people interested in learning a skilled trade, becoming valuable members of our construction team, and building a long-term career. Construction experience is helpful, but it is not required.

You do need to be willing to learn. Work Environment This is active construction work performed primarily outdoors year-round. Team members should expect physically demanding work that may include lifting, carrying, digging, climbing, kneeling, loading materials, operating equipment, working around active construction sites, and working in changing weather conditions. Some days are harder than others. Some tasks are repetitive. Jobsites are not always close to the shop, and schedules may occasionally change based on project needs, weather, inspections, concrete schedules, or coordination with other trades. This position is best suited for someone who enjoys staying busy, working with their hands, solving problems, and being able to see what they accomplished at the end of the day.

Use required personal protective equipment (PPE) Follow company and jobsite safety requirements Use tools and equipment only as trained and intended Maintain clean and safe work areas Report unsafe conditions immediately Ask questions before performing work they have not been trained to perform Look out for themselves and the people working around them Quality work does not come at the expense of safety.
