Beech Island - 3673 - Concrete Finisher - Journeyman
for section headings (About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)
- Use - for lists of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose
- Do NOT repeat job title as heading (page already shows it)
- Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it
- Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail
- Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions
- Include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD")
- Never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them
- Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones
- Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences
Now, let's parse the job posting:
The posting starts with company description: "At Black & Veatch, our employee-owners go beyond the project..." This is about the company/role context. Could be "About the role" or "About the company". The rule says use
for section headings like "About the role". I'll include an "About the role" section with this prose.
Then there's metadata: Req Id, Opportunity Type, Relocation eligible, Full time/Part time, Contract Hire Only, Visa Sponsorship. These are minor metadata. Should fold into a short
or drop. I'll include a brief paragraph with key details: full-time, craft (non-union), no relocation, no visa sponsorship.
Job Summary: "Spread, level, smooth and finish surfaces of poured concrete..." This is a summary of the role. Could be part of "About the role" or separate "Job Summary". The rule says use headings like "About the role". I'll include a "Job Summary" heading? The allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. "Job Summary" not listed but "About the role" is. I'll use "About the role" for the company description and job summary combined.
Key Responsibilities: There's a long list of bullet points (though not formatted as bullets in text). They are separated by periods. I need to extract each distinct responsibility. The text includes many sentences. I'll parse them into a list.
Preferred Qualifications: Lists NCCER certifications.
Minimum Qualifications: "4 or more years of experience working as a concrete finisher carpenter or similar craft..." and other requirements.
Certifications: Lists NCCER certifications again (duplicate). Might combine with Preferred Qualifications.
Work Environment/Physical Demands: Two subsections: Physical Demands and Work Environment. Could be under "Requirements" or "Work Environment". The allowed headings include "Requirements". I'll create a "Requirements" section for qualifications and physical demands, and maybe a "Work Environment" section? Not in allowed list. But "Requirements" can include physical demands. I'll include under "Requirements".
Competencies: Just "Salary Plan CEM: Cement Masonry Job Grade 200". That's pay/salary info. Could be "Pay" section. The posting states "Salary Plan CEM: Cement Masonry Job Grade 200". That's specific. So include a "Pay" section.
Then there's EEO boilerplate and benefits description: "BVH, Inc., its subsidiaries... complies with all Equal Employment Opportunity... Black & Veatch does not discriminate... Black & Veatch is committed to being an employer of choice by creating a valuable work experience... We offer professionals an array of health and welfare benefits that vary based on their geographic region and employment status. This may include health, life accident and disability insurances, paid time off, financial programs and more. Professionals may also be eligible for a performance-based bonus program." This is benefits info. The posting actually states benefits, albeit generic. The rule: never create Benefits section unless the posting actually states them. It does state them, though generic. I'll include a "Benefits" section with that prose.
Nearest Major Market, Nearest Secondary Market, Job Segment: metadata, can drop or include in a brief paragraph.
Now, structure:
1. About the role: company description + job summary.
2. Responsibilities: list of key responsibilities.
3. Requirements: minimum qualifications, preferred qualifications, certifications, physical demands, work environment.
4. Pay: salary plan.
5. Benefits: benefits description.
But note: "Preferred Qualifications" and "Minimum Qualifications" are separate. Could combine under "Requirements". Also "Certifications" duplicates. I'll merge.
Let's extract responsibilities from the text. The "Key Responsibilities" section has a long paragraph with many sentences. I'll split into individual bullet points. Need to preserve all substantive information. I'll list each distinct duty.
From text:
- Use appropriate hand and power tools to place concrete into finished forms to specified textures; vibrate, level, smooth and shape surface of concrete; finish concrete surfaces to specifications; remove rough or defective spots from concrete surfaces using power grinder or chisel and hammer and patch holes with fresh concrete or epoxy compound; and install all other items in accordance with the applicable plans and specifications
- Mold expansion joints and edges, using edging tools, jointers, and strait edge
- Signal truck and or pump truck driver to facilitate pouring concrete, and move chute as needed over concrete forms and/or rebar
- Apply hardening and sealing compound to cure surface of concrete, and waterproof or restore surface
- Must have working knowledge of auto level and transit for accurate layout and verification of finished grade and placement
- Measure, cut, assemble and install forms, rebar, embeds and anchor bolts; construct built-in-place or prefabricated wooden forms, according to specifications for molding concrete structures; erect built-in-place forms or assemble and install prefabricated forms; insert spreaders and tie-rods between opposite pieces to maintain specific dimensions; anchor and brace forms to fixed objects using nails, bolts, anchor rods, steel cables, planks and timber; build wooden structures such as scaffold supports and frame shelters according to specifications and project specifications; pour concrete into finished forms to specified textures; vibrate, level, smooth and shape surface of concrete; finish concrete surfaces to specifications; remove rough or defective spots from concrete surfaces using power grinder or chisel and hammer and patch holes with fresh concrete or epoxy compound; and install all other items in accordance with the applicable plans and specifications (this seems duplicated)
- Be familiar with self-leveling underlayment's
- Monitor how the wind, heat, or cold affect the curing of the concrete throughout the entire process
- May be asked to assist carpenters, and rod busters with any necessary tasks for the installation of concrete structures
- Participate in all safety related processes and programs as requested
- Engage with your work team to ensure we achieve zero injuries
- Understand that no job is so important that your safety and that of your crew will be compromised
- Watch for hazards and report any concerns to your supervisor or safety professional
- If needed, use your stop work authority until the issue is resolved
- Report all accidents and near misses to supervisor; participate in investigation process as needed
- Participate in all pre-job work planning and safety discussions
- Identify safety hazards you or other employees may be subject to and take all necessary corrective action to eliminate and/or mitigate hazards
- Understand and respond appropriately to all safety hazards and warning devices (ie back-up alarms, smell of smoke, different colored warning tags, warning sirens)
- Understand, support, and follow lockout tag out procedures
- Attend site specific training and assure you follow all procedures as outlined in training
- Follow established safety rules and regulations and maintain a safe and clean work environment
- Use effective verbal and written communication skills
- Add, subtract, multiply and divide whole numbers and fractions rapidly and accurately
- Listen to co-workers suggestions, safety concerns, and recommendations giving full attention to what they are saying and take the time to understand the points being made, asking questions and providing feedback when appropriate
That's a long list. I'll include all.
Now, Requirements: Minimum Qualifications: "4 or more years of experience working as a concrete finisher carpenter or similar craft, and a strong working knowledge of the civil crafts. Experience in the erection of all types of concrete structures. Must have working knowledge of auto-level and tran" (cut off). Also "All applicants must be able to complete pre-employment onboarding requirements (if selected) which may include any/all of the following: criminal/civil background check, drug screen, and motor vehicle records search, in compliance with any applicable laws and regulations."
Preferred Qualifications: NCCER Concrete Finishing, NCCER Carpenter, NCCER Reinforcing Ironwork, NCCER Rigger, NCCER Scaffolding.
Certifications: same list.
Physical Demands: list.
Work Environment: list.
I'll create a "Requirements" section with sub-lists? But the rule says use
- for any list. I can have multiple
under the same heading. Or separate headings for "Qualifications" and "Physical Demands". The allowed headings include "Qualifications". I'll use "Qualifications" for minimum and preferred qualifications, and "Requirements" for physical demands and work environment? But "Requirements" is allowed. I'll do:
- Qualifications: minimum and preferred qualifications, certifications.
- Requirements: physical demands and work environment.
But the rule says "Requirements" is a heading. I'll use "Qualifications" for the qualification lists, and "Requirements" for physical demands and work environment. However, the posting has "Minimum Qualifications" and "Preferred Qualifications". I'll combine under "Qualifications".
Now, Pay: "Salary Plan CEM: Cement Masonry Job Grade 200". That's specific. Include.
Benefits: the paragraph about health and welfare benefits, paid time off, financial programs, performance-based bonus. Include.
Now, metadata: Req Id, Opportunity Type, Relocation eligible, Full time/Part time, Contract Hire Only, Visa Sponsorship. I'll include a brief paragraph at the top or bottom. Since the rule says fold minor metadata into a short or drop it. I'll include a paragraph after About the role: "This is a full-time, non-union craft position (Req ID: 117679). Relocation is not eligible. Visa sponsorship is not available."
Now, ensure no duplicate headings with filler. Only include sections with real content.
