Layout Surveyor

MGI Construction Corporation is a multi-service construction company with multiple and overlapping generations of experience in the industry. Our four divisions are demolition, environmental services, heavy civil and earthworks.

Our mission is very clear: we are dedicated to providing our clients with cost-effective and timely service; our employees with a safe and rewarding workplace; and our planet with environmentally sound business strategies and operating procedures. We look to situate development projects not as a 'one-off' but contextualize them within the broader community and actively look to redefine construction as a lifestyle, not just a ‘job.'

We realize that some seek employment where others are driven by a greater civic-duty. It is this latter segment, those who are self-motivated, passionate, entrepreneurial in spirit while egoless in nature that we believe are best suited for our collective role in #ConstructingHistory.
