In continuing our celebration of #CareersInConstructionMonth, we highlight the growing need for young men and women to join our industry. In construction, it is all about creating a career that you want, and there is no shortage of pathways you can take to get there. We’ve been proud to partner with several local high school CTE programs to provide kids with exposure and let them explore the limitless opportunities that await them in the construction industry. #IdealContracting #CareersInConstruction #BuildingTogether #Opportunities #Construction

A career in construction is a career of endless opportunities. Take it from Andrew Milkey, a Ferris State Alum and current Ideal Contracting Assistant Project Manager. After being exposed to construction at a very young age, Andrew took a unique career path that landed him in a position where he could expand his knowledge and role while also giving back to the programs that helped him along the way. #IdealContracting #CareersInConstruction #BuildingTogether #Opportunities #Construction #CICM

We’re pleased to share our October Safety Champion of the Month™, Melanie Rapp! Melanie is the Safety Administrator for Ideal Contracting. In her role, she supports the entire Safety Department in various ways, including through her First Aid/CPR training program. As a certified instructor, Melanie has created a First Aid/CPR training class that is comprehensive, engaging, and, most importantly, impactful. She goes out of her way to ensure her team members are educated on the life-saving skills and techniques that can make a difference in an emergency situation. We’re proud to call Melanie a team member, and we can’t thank her enough for sharing her expertise with everyone at Ideal Contracting. #IdealContracting #SafetyChampion #SafetyBringsUsHome #BuildingTogether

Thank you for being an essential part of our journey! #IdealContracting #Anniversaries #BuildingTogether

When we talk about the pillars of our company, we cannot help but think of individuals like Nate Clare. Nate is an Ironworker Superintendent who has traveled across the country to help lead some of the largest steel projects that Ideal Contracting has undertaken. How has he done it? By relying on the people around him and doing his best to set them up for success. Nate has excelled in keeping his team motivated, building with a safety-focused mindset, and helping deliver successful projects. We at Ideal Contracting believe that it is people who make a difference in our industry, and Nate has only reinforced that belief. He is a Pillar of Ideal. #PillarsofIdeal #IdealContracting #CareersInConstruction #BuildingTogether

We're excited to be at the Eastern Michigan University Construction Management Career Fair this Thursday!

To learn more about our Build U Internship Program, visit our internships page at: https://lnkd.in/gx6M9iQx #IdealContracting #EMU #BuildU #BuildingTogether

Each Summer, we take our Build U interns on several field trips to local skilled trade training centers, including the Ironworkers Local 25 training facility in Wixom, MI. These field trips expose our interns to some of the incredible work of the skilled tradespeople who support construction projects across the country. On this particular trip, our interns got some valuable hands-on experience, including welding steel bent plates and climbing a column. #IdealContracting #Local25 #SteelDays #BuildU #Ironworker

Nate Clare is a third-generation ironworker, a Superintendent for Ideal Contracting, and a real difference-maker in our industry. Having been around the trade for much of his life, Nate has made countless lifelong friendships and experiences with his fellow team members. This, in part, has led him to retain a core group of ironworkers who have traveled with Nate across the country to support several Ideal Contracting steel projects. It is individuals like Nate who make construction such a unique industry, and we’re very lucky to call him a member of the Ideal Contracting family! #SteelDays #IdealContracting #Ironworker #BuildingTogether
