If you’re looking for variety, challenge, and the chance to work with top-tier mobile equipment (boom trucks, truck cranes, and all-terrain cranes), this is the role for you.

Mobilization and Demobilization: Set up and tear down boom trucks, truck cranes, and all-terrain cranes (55T–350T) at various job sites, ensuring safe and efficient transitions between projects.

Crane Operation: Operate cranes in accordance with NCCCO standards, manufacturer guidelines, and company safety protocols. Lift, move, and position heavy materials and equipment as directed by supervisors or project managers.

Daily Inspections and Maintenance: Perform thorough pre-operation inspections to ensure crane functionality and safety. Promptly report any mechanical issues to the maintenance team for resolution.

Safety and Compliance: Follow all safety procedures and wear required PPE at all times. Maintain a strong safety mindset and ensure compliance with OSHA and company standards.

Communication and Coordination: Work closely with riggers and ground crews using hand signals, radios, or other communication tools to ensure safe and accurate lifts. Collaborate with team members to execute lifts smoothly and efficiently.

Project Execution: Meet project timelines while maintaining high standards of workmanship. Pay close attention to detail and contribute to the overall success of each job.

Job Schedule and Location:

  • Full-time, Monday–Friday with occasional travel, weekends, and overtime
