A day in the life
You arrive on site before the crew, review the pour plan, and walk the forms. You verify rebar placement, coordinate pump logistics, and touch base with the superintendent and inspectors. As the sun comes up, you brief the team, assign tasks, and execute the pour—tracking quality, schedule, and safety the whole way. By day’s end, the slab is finished, the site is clean, and tomorrow’s work is lined up.
What you’ll lead
- Full-cycle commercial concrete operations: foundations, slabs, columns, walls, and flatwork
- Daily supervision of concrete crews on active job sites, driving productivity and safety
- Plan reading and execution: interpret structural drawings/specs; coordinate formwork, rebar, and placement methods
- Quality control: confirm tolerances, finishes, and cure procedures meet standards
- Safety leadership: enforce OSHA and jobsite protocols
- Trade coordination: work with project management, inspectors, and other trades to protect the schedule
- Proactive communication: surface issues early so there are no surprises
What you bring
- 5+ years of commercial concrete experience, including 2+ years leading a crew/foreman responsibility

- Fluency reading structural plans and specifications
- Clear, steady leadership and communication that moves work forward
