CAREER OPPORTUNITIES
BUILDING A STRONGER FOUNDATION FOR ARIZONA’S MASONRY INDUSTRY
Our mission is to create significant and lasting positive change for the Arizona masonry industry and to reinforce that our systems provide the premier building envelope solution in the minds of public and private owners, developers, architects, engineers, general contractors and the general public.
AS A MASON, WHAT WOULD I DO?
As a skilled mason, the contributions you make will last for generations. Masons work with brick, concrete block, stone, glass block, architectural precast and more. Work can be simple as building a wall or as complex as installing an ornate exterior, constructing a school or hospital. As with many construction trades, masonry work is done outdoors.
The work is very physical, involving the use of hand tools, power tools and material-moving equipment. Every brick and block must be laid by hand and requires the skill of a craftsman - a true artist. A skilled mason knows the different patterns, textures and colors that create an attractive finished product. Masons must also be able to read blueprints, understand building codes and be knowledgeable of industry safety guidelines and rules for handling hazardous materials. Each job presents new challenges that masons are called upon to address and solve.
This franchise is independently owned and operated by a franchisee. Your application will go directly to the franchisee, and all hiring decisions will be made by the management of this franchisee. All inquiries about employment at this franchisee should be made directly to the franchise location, and not to Arizona Masonry Council Corporate.
EARN WHILE YOU LEARN...DEBT FREE
College tuition is a 4+ year financial commitment that comes with a mountain of debt. Conversely, masonry training programs are very cost-effective and provide an income while learning on the jobsite. What’s more, masonry construction is in high demand, which means there’s a good paying career waiting for you the day you graduate.
CAREER OPPORTUNITIES ABOUND
Advancements in technology and innovation have made masonry a progressive industry full of career opportunities. From jobsite roles such as mason and laborer, foreman, and superintendent to executive responsibilities like estimator, project manager, marketing and management, the ability to grow within an organization is always present.
WORK OUTDOORS
As a mason your “office” is the great outdoors, not a boxy cubicle surrounding a desk and chair. In construction every job offers a change of scenery, keeping things as fresh as the outdoor air and full of new challenges.
FREEDOM TO TRAVEL
Skilled masons, foremen and superintendents have the ability and confidence that you and your expertise can pack up and go wherever you choose because they are in demand throughout the world. When you’re ready for a change of scenery or a new adventure, the masonry industry has a new experience and destination waiting for you!
HEALTH & FITNESS
The best way to maintain good physical and mental health is through exercise. While working in masonry there’s no need for a gym membership or dedicating hours of your personal schedule to cardio and weight training. The work you perform each and every day keeps you active, in shape and healthy …just like the doctor ordered.
IT’S A TEAM SPORT
Masonry crews function like a well-oiled machine where all teammates work together to meet the challenges of the job and achieve a common goal. Much like the military or team sports, it’s a business of camaraderie where working relationships often become lasting friendships built on mutual respect.
INNOVATION
Masonry is moving forward…fast! Yes it has a strong history of traditional practices, yet it is a construction method that constantly integrates new technology and innovations to meet the competitive demands and safety expectations of the industry. Today’s advancement in products, equipment and systems are continuously creating careers and expanding to new markets.
NO INCOME LIMIT
The masonry business is performance driven. On the jobsite where superior craftsmanship and productivity are highly rewarded, income levels are based on your skills, creative thinking, ambition and commitment to success. The formula is simple and you control your future. The more skilled you become the higher your income and value to the organization...which may be your own company someday.
