If you're the kind of person who prefers being out on-site rather than behind a desk - and you take real pride in seeing projects come together safely, on time, and done right - this one's worth a look.
We're working with a well-established, family-run structural steel contractor with over two decades of consistent growth. They've built a strong reputation across commercial, residential, and institutional projects, combining modern fabrication capability with a hands-on, no-politics culture.
This is a high-impact, field-led leadership role where you'll be the link between fabrication and erection - making sure everything delivered actually gets installed properly, safely, and on schedule.
🔧 What you'll be doing
This isn't a "sit back and delegate" position - it's hands-on, fast-moving, and varied depending on project phase.
Overseeing multiple active job sites at once
Coordinating daily with superintendents and field teams
Managing erection crews, foremen, and subcontractors
Assigning manpower based on shifting priorities
Driving strict safety compliance (OSHA + industry standards)
Running toolbox talks and conducting safety audits
Tracking installation progress alongside Project Managers
Adjusting schedules and sequencing to keep projects on track
Ensuring quality, logistics, and material flow are aligned on-site
You'll typically be overseeing:
20 field personnel
2 superintendents
Up to 20-25 subcontractors depending on workload
🎯 What they're looking for
5+ years in a field operations / site leadership role (steel, construction, or similar)
Strong people management - able to lead crews and subcontractors effectively
Experience working across multiple projects simultaneously
Solid understanding of structural or miscellaneous steel erection
AISC environment experience is a strong advantage
🚀 Why this role stands out
Stable, growing business (8+ years of consistent expansion)
AISC-certified in both fabrication and erection
Modern, well-invested fabrication facility
Strong reputation for quality and organisation
Close-knit, "no bad apples" team culture
Direct exposure to senior leadership
💰 Package
Salary: Flexible depending on experience
401k with 4% match
Health insurance (60% covered)
PTO (negotiable depending on level)
Relocation support available where needed
