excellent compensation and extensive benefits to all our craftsmen. The benefits are set
by union contract, of course, but generally they include such benefits as paid time off
and health care coverage for employees and family members.
Safety. Job site safety is a major concern
throughout McBride. That's why we have a McBride Safety Incentive Program. We're proud to
say that, in the spring of 2000, we honored nearly 300 company craftsmen for job site
safety.

skilled craftsmen, it's always possible to refine your craft, particularly when you work
side-by-side with the best in the business. We also offer a limited number of
apprenticeships in a variety of crafts to qualified applicants. If you enjoy working in a
craft, have an intense desire to learn, and are willing to take direction from experienced
craftsmen, let us hear from you. top
Project Managers
Our rapid growth in residential
operations in St. Louis, Illinois, Atlanta, Indianapolis, and Kansas City, as well as
expansion into other cities in the near future, enables McBride & Son Homes to always
look for seasoned managers as well as enthusiastic management trainees.
Services & Skills. Regardless of the
scope, every McBride home is managed by a Project Manager with extensive training and
experience in the McBride way of building. Project Manager’s are in charge of their
subdivision; be it one or several. The Project Manager will supervise the actions of their
superintendents and sales managers on a daily basis, and at the same time, focus their
attention on the estimating, advertising, finance, production, and customer service
details.
Let us hear from you if you have experience managing projects involving the construction
of single family, multi-family homes, or have been involved with the development of
subdivisions or master planned communities.

products, pricing, and estimating; construction; sales and marketing; accounting; job site
computer technology; safety; and, the most important thing, customer satisfaction.

Superintendent
The fact that we have more building
sites in the Metropolitan St. Louis area than any other builder, and our residential
operations are growing in Illinois, Kansas City, Indianapolis and Atlanta, means we are
always looking for residential superintendents.
Services & Skills. Superintendents report
directly to the Project Manager and are responsible for the daily activities of each home
under construction. Each residential jobsite superintendent is in charge of coordinating
the subcontractors, scheduling and supervising the work, and conducting the final
walk-through with the homeowner.

the deal is the skill most required. In addition, successful sales managers are those with
excellent communication skills coupled with the ability to pay attention to the details.
