We're hiring an experienced Water/Sewer Utility Foreman to lead a crew on active installation projects. This is a hit-the-ground-running role - you'll have 55+ years of company support behind you, but we are not training someone to run a pipe laser or work off benchmarks for the first time.

Water/sewer utility experience is required; general construction or other trades experience alone will not meet the qualifications for this role.

Responsibilities

• Lead and supervise a water/sewer installation crew on active job sites
• Read and interpret blueprints, schematics, and grading plans
• Operate pipe lasers and work from benchmarks to maintain grade and line
• Enforce OSHA safety standards and jobsite safety practices
• Coordinate schedule and materials with project management
• Ensure work meets spec and passes inspection

Required Qualifications

• Minimum 3 years of hands-on experience in water/sewer utility construction - general construction or other trades experience does not meet this requirement
• Proven supervisory experience specifically within water/sewer utility construction
• Demonstrated competence operating pipe lasers and working from benchmarks
• Working knowledge of OSHA regulations and jobsite safety practices
• Ability to read and interpret blueprints and schematics

Preferred Qualifications

• OSHA 10/30 certification
• CDL
• Experience with project scheduling and budgeting
