Job Description

Lead Field Installer / Working Foreman

Are you a seasoned installer who loves to get your hands dirty but also has a knack for leadership? We're looking for a highly skilled Lead Field Installer / Working Foreman to join our team. In this role, you won't just supervise — you'll be on the tools every day, working alongside your crew, setting the standard for excellence and efficiency on every project.

If you have 7-10+ years of hands-on construction experience, deep technical knowledge across multiple trades and building systems, and a passion for mentoring junior staff, we want to hear from you.

What You'll Do:

• Work directly on installations while providing expert guidance and training to your team and laborers
• Read and interpret blueprints, schematics, and project plans to ensure precise execution
• Lead and coordinate your installation team, fostering a collaborative, productive work environment
• Ensure strict adherence to safety protocols, project specifications, and quality workmanship
• Anticipate issues, troubleshoot on-site challenges, and implement solutions to keep projects on track
• Communicate project progress, challenges, and directives to project and field managers via phone, email, and cloud-based platforms
• Oversee daily site conditions, document progress, manage material flow, and assist with scheduling sub-trades and phases of work
• Professionally interact with clients, homeowners, sub-trades, product reps, inspectors, and other stakeholders

What You Bring:

• 7-10+ years of hands-on experience in construction or installation, with proven proficiency across tools and trade disciplines
• Strong, broad construction knowledge — you understand how different building systems and trade sequences fit together, not just your own specialty, and can speak confidently to methods, materials, and code requirements on site
• Blueprint fluency — comfortable reading and applying schematics and project plans without hand-holding
• Proven leadership — experience leading small teams and mentoring junior staff
• Sharp organizational skills — able to follow scopes of work, document site conditions, and manage daily progress independently
• Strong communicator , verbal and written, for both internal and client-facing interactions
• Safety-first mindset with a solid working knowledge of health and safety regulations and best practices
• Adaptable and proactive — thinks ahead and gets in front of problems before they become delays
• Valid driver's license and reliable vehicle
• Physical capability for strenuous, hands-on installation work
• High school diploma or equivalent; additional trade certifications/training an asset

Drawing on more than three decades of construction expertise, Unlimited Building Solutions has specialized in General Contracting for a diverse range of institutional, commercial, and residential projects since its establishment in 1999.
