Long Building Systems is hiring experienced PEMB erectors to join our crews on jobs across the Southeast. If you know metal buildings from start to finish, including steel, panels, roofing, trim, and the detail work that makes a building right, we want to talk to you.

• Install wall panels, standing seam roofing, trim, gutters, and insulation
• Rig loads and run tag lines
• Read and work from blueprints
• Run site equipment: telehandler (Lull), manlift, and scissor lift
• Work safely and follow jobsite safety rules

What you need

• 2–3 years of verifiable PEMB erection experience
• Your own hand tools of the trade
• Valid driver's license and reliable transportation
• Willingness to travel throughout the Southeast
• Forklift and boom lift certifications are a plus
• OSHA 30 is a plus (if you don't have it, we'll get you certified)

What we offer

• $25–$35/hour based on experience
• Paid daily per diem on travel jobs
• 3 days off every week
• Fall protection (harness and lanyard) and required safety gear provided
• OSHA 30 training provided
• Health, dental, and vision insurance
