  • Travel nationwide for short-term projects
  • Ensure compliance with all safety and OSHA standards
  • Read and interpret engineered drawings and project plans
  • Liaise with project management, clients, and local teams
  • Conduct equipment inspections and assist in project setup/closeout
Qualifications
  • 10–15 years of construction experience (Electrical or Mechanical aptitude strongly preferred)
  • Supervisory or foreman experience on job sites
  • Willingness and availability to travel nationwide
  • Valid driver's license (must pass DMV check)
  • Ability to lift up to 40 lbs and work at heights (rooftops, steel structures)
  • Familiarity with fall protection systems, lifts, and basic tools
  • Comfort working overtime and weekends as needed
Preferred but not required
  • OSHA 10 or OSHA 30 certification
  • Lift/forklift operator certifications
  • Experience in steel work, roofing, or fall protection installs
  • Training and certifications can be provided as needed
Schedule

    Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM
  • Varies by project:
    Start times may range from 6 AM – 9 AM
