Field Operations Manager – Keep the Gears Turning (and the Drywall Hanging)
At FieldSource Construction, we’re not just about breaking down walls—we’re about building success from the ground up. As a premier commercial interiors trade contractor, we specialize in interior demolition, light gauge framing, drywall installation, acoustic ceilings, and carpentry. We need someone who can juggle schedules, manage crews, and keep our projects running smoother than freshly sanded drywall. If you thrive on solving problems, coordinating chaos, and leading with a collaborative spirit, read on.
What You’ll Be Doing (A.K.A. Your Day Job):
- Overseeing all field crews, ensuring projects kick off and wrap up with precision.
- Coordinating material delivery and equipment procurement—because no one likes delays.
- Supervising and managing daily operations on-site to ensure labor, equipment, and materials align for timely completion.
- Managing schedules and handling on-site client relations with finesse.
- Promoting and enforcing company safety policies and ensuring compliance with quality standards.
- Taking charge of crew performance, from safety audits to hitting company goals (you’re basically the field MVP).
- Reading and understanding project documents—construction plans, specs, material data sheets, safety protocols, the works.
What We’re Looking For (Your Toolbox):
- Relevant field experience in light gauge framing, drywall installation and finishing, acoustic ceiling systems, and interior carpentry.
- Experience managing multiple crews and juggling multiple projects at once.
- Familiarity with the equipment, materials, and methods of commercial construction (bonus points for experience in general construction).
- A knack for solving problems, resolving conflicts, and communicating like a pro.
- The ability to stay cool under pressure and meet tight deadlines without missing a beat.
- A safety-first mindset—OSHA posters probably decorate your garage.
What Kind of Person Thrives Here (It’s You, Right?):
- Collaborative, with a can-do attitude that inspires your team.
- Detail-oriented, because the little things are actually the big things.
- A natural leader who’s just as comfortable running a safety meeting as you are running a crew.
