  • Work hands-on with forklifts, cranes, skates, jacks, and rigging gear
  • Plan lifts, give direction, and make sure work is done safely
  • Load, move, set, and align machines and equipment
  • Read and follow lift plans, drawings, and layouts
  • Fill out basic job paperwork and talk with customers as needed
  • Travel to different job sites when required

Knowledge, Skills, and Experience:

  • 1-3 years rigging, machinery moving, or machinery installation experience
  • 2+ years leading a crew or working as a foreman in rigging, machinery moving or machinery installation
  • Able to read simple drawings and lift plans
  • Willing to travel, work overtime, and weekends when needed
  • Requires successful background, MVR and drug screening
  • Must currently hold a valid driver's license
