Description

Copper State Bolt & Nut Company has been a trusted name since 1972. As a family and women-owned business, we serve more than 16,000 customers through 30+ facilities, providing fasteners, construction products, industrial supplies, safety products, and more.

Copper State Bolt & Nut Company is seeking an experienced Field Operations Manager to lead operations supporting major customer projects. This is a hands-on field leadership role overseeing people, inventory, material flow, customer commitments, safety, scheduling, and day-to-day operations from site mobilization through demobilization.

• Maintain accurate inventory across yards, containers, vehicles, staging areas, and customer locations.
• Coordinate customer demand, project schedules, inbound supply, labor, equipment, and material availability.
• Serve as the primary on-site operational contact for customer field teams.
• Lead, schedule, train, coach, and develop Project Materials and Fulfillment teams and temporary/local labor.
• Promote a strong safety culture and ensure compliance with PPE, equipment, traffic control, housekeeping, and security requirements.
• Monitor labor, overtime, equipment, freight, and other project expenses.
• Communicate shortages, risks, schedule changes, and service issues and develop recovery plans.
• Partner with Operations, Supply Chain, Safety, Quality, HR, IT, Finance, Integration, and Copper State branches.
• Support inventory transfer, site restoration, and project demobilization.

• 5+ years of progressively responsible experience in field operations, project logistics, materials management, distribution, construction support, military logistics, oil and gas operations, or a related environment.
• Proven experience leading employees and coordinating multiple work streams in a safety-sensitive operation.
• Knowledge of receiving, inventory control, material handling, staging, delivery, and customer service.
• Strong problem-solving, communication, organization, and decision-making skills.
• Experience with ERP systems, mobile scanners, spreadsheets, reporting tools, and Microsoft applications.
• Valid driver's license and ability to meet company vehicle and travel requirements.
• Willingness to work an extended 2-year remote field assignment and travel or relocate to future projects as needed.

• Military logistics or transportation
• Oil and gas field operations
• Construction materials or laydown yards
• Large-scale or mission-critical projects
• Launching a warehouse, project yard, field base, or temporary operation
• CDL/fleet operations
• Forklift or telehandler operations
