Construction Crew Leader
Email resume to tjackson@habitatsavannah.org
Posted 1/24/2023
Tentative start - Spring 2023 or open until filled
For one year, you can get paid to build sustainable solutions in a community, gain valuable hands on experience and prepare for your future. This full-time AmeriCorps service position offers a great opportunity to make a real impact in the lives of others while building your own knowledge and skillset.
AmeriCorps National members serve the community in direct service and capacity building activities.
What will you do?
The construction crew leader plays an integral part in building and repairing homes. Lead groups of skills and unskilled volunteers and homeowner families in construction activities while maintaining a safe, efficient work environment, thus, developing and enhancing your volunteer management and construction skills.
*Typically serve Tuesday – Saturday on the build site.
*Assist with all aspects of hands-on construction tasks including, but not limited to, demolition, site prep, framing, insulation, drywall, flooring, roofing, finish carpentry and landscaping.
*Projects may include new construction, rehabilitation, critical home repair and weatherization projects.
*Lead small groups of volunteers and facilitate safe and positive experiences for everyone working on site.
*Maintain site safety by adhering to Habitat construction safety policies, modeling best practices and guidelines, volunteer education and site monitoring.
This position will focus on home construction, home repair and volunteer services aspects of Habitat affiliate operations.
Where will you serve?
Savannah, Georgia is known as “The Hostess City of the South,” and we live up to the name. You will never be short of activities to enjoy whether you prefer the beach, a quiet square to sit in, good food, something a little social, or a history experience, we have it all! There is always something going on while still being greeted with hospitality in all events.
Costal Empire Habitat for Humanity will have its 40th anniversary in 2023! We are excited to celebrate and continue to put God’s love into action by bringing people together to build homes, community, and hope! We have served over 150 families and plan to aid 10 more in this next year. We work with many nonprofit organizations and other entities to aid in the advocacy for affordable homeownership.
This AmeriCorps member will put the hammer to the nail (literally) in our construction department. We have many volunteers that are ready to help, but we need someone to assist in site management. This position requires someone who can assist in supervising volunteers, planning, coordinating and managing all parts of a building project from start to finish. This role will live out Habitat’s mission in many different ways including informing our community, increasing awareness and building homes.
