Are You the Person Who Keeps Everything Moving?

Do you like being on the go -- not stuck behind a desk? Are you the kind of person who takes pride in making sure everyone has what they need, when they need it? Do you want a physical, hands-on job where you can see the direct impact of your work every single day?

As a Job Runner, you are the logistics backbone of our field operations. You'll spend your days driving between job sites, our warehouse, and supply locations -- delivering materials, managing dumpsters, maintaining our fleet, and making sure our yard and warehouse are organized and stocked. You work independently, manage your own route, and take ownership of making sure nothing slows our crews down.

This is an entry-level position, but don't confuse entry-level with unimportant. Our project managers and crews depend on you. The person in this role has a direct line to every active job site in the company. For the right person, it's also a front-row seat to how a professional remodeling operation runs -- and a launching pad into project management or other career paths at Nelson Exteriors.

    Keep the company yard and warehouse organized, clean, and well-maintained

    Communicate with the office and field teams throughout the day to adapt to changing priorities

    Occasionally pick up materials from suppliers when job-specific needs arise

What We're Looking For:

    A valid Georgia driver's license with an EXCELLENT driving record -- this is non-negotiable

    Must be able to pass a background check and drug test

    A self-starter who can manage their own day without someone looking over their shoulder

    Strong ability to follow directions and communicate clearly

    Comfortable driving trucks and towing trailers (experience preferred but we can train)

    Some experience in construction or with construction materials is a plus, but not required

Why This Job Is Worth Your Attention:

    You're not stuck. This role gives you exposure to every part of the business -- materials, logistics, job sites, crews, project management. People who pay attention in this role learn fast and move up.

    You're not forgotten. Nelson started as a family business and we still operate like one. You'll be treated with respect and your work will be noticed.
