    WHY WORK WITH US:

    Morgan Construction is a well-established and respected heavy civil contractor operating throughout Canada, committed to excellence, workplace safety, and building trust with our clients. Our belief in our people being the backbone of our success drives us to offer stability and security with year-round work, competitive wages, and immediate benefits. As a growth-focused company, Morgan invests in its workforce with training and career advancement opportunities, including leadership education and hands-on training to advance knowledge.

    • Offer technical assistance in negotiating contracts, change orders, and related matters.
    • Assist in preparing studies, materials and methods, recommendations, and cost estimates as required.
    • Perform additional assignments as directed by the supervisor.
    • Attend site visits and preconstruction meetings to evaluate and understand the project's scope in preparation for bidding.
