EIGHTY FOUR, Pa., Sept. 27, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- 84 Lumber, the nation's largest privately held building materials supplier, is recruiting for 10 immediate openings at its Toms River, NJ, location as the company's business continues to expand nationwide.

"At 84 Lumber, we are on the leading edge of the ongoing rise in residential construction across the nation," said John Hay, divisional vice president at 84 Lumber.

Hiring event attendees will participate in job interviews and learn more about 84 Lumber's company culture. Some attendees may receive a job offer on site.

EWP designers are responsible for managing, measuring, and monitoring the EWP design capacities needed to support sales and production needs. Designers will provide the systems, processes, and personnel required to ensure that designs are accurate and efficient. Starting compensation for designers is $50,000 to $80,000 per year.
EWP yard associates are responsible for building loads for deliveries. These associates must maintain a safe, clean, and well-organized lumber yard, load and unload lumber and building supplies, and operate machinery. Starting compensation is $18 per hour.

"As a family-owned company, 84 Lumber is committed to helping our employees build a long-term career with us. We are proud to say that 95% of our store managers started in our manager trainee program," Hay said. "We believe that a wide variety of candidates can find a home with the company and open doors for themselves – a person with no construction experience but a desire to learn, military veterans ready to open their next chapter, or someone simply ready to make a fresh start. We'll give every one of them the tools to grow."

Candidates interested in participating in the Hiring Event should pre-register online and complete the form. Registrants will then receive an email from 84 Lumber with the link to apply for the desired position.
