● Are you passionate about environmental sustainability and want to see more building materials salvaged and recycled in CO? 

● Are you detail oriented and looking to grow your career? 

● Do you want to be a strategic leader in a fast growing small business?  

ABOUT THE COMPANY: 

Perks Deconstruction takes a surgical approach to demolition in order to salvage and recycle building materials. We dismantle and divert full houses, kitchen/baths, garages, and commercial spaces from the landfill. Oftentimes, we donate the materials to non-profits. We do business differently. We are the cleanest subcontractor on the jobsite and are driven by our passion to increase the reuse culture in Colorado. 40% of Colorado landfills consist of construction and demolition debris and we believe deconstruction to be a critical tool for reducing that number. 

CORE COMPANY VALUES: 

● Sustainability: We approach every job with a salvage first mentality. 

● Collaboration: We work with a number of stakeholders from architects/structural engineers who spec materials, to homeowners to manufacturers to develop end-markets for reused materials etc. 

● Golden Rule: We treat others how we would want to be treated, with integrity and respect.  

● Challenge the status quo: We continue to innovate ways to reuse demolition debris and don’t accept traditional “scrape” and re-build mentality  

● Communication: We value honest and up-front communication amongst our team members and with our clients.
