We’re an established, locally owned company with plenty of work ahead and are looking for someone who takes pride in their work, shows up ready to work, and knows how to get the job done safely and correctly.

Please read before applying: Regional travel is REQUIRED. Most of your work will be out of town, and this is non-negotiable. We are typically home most weekends, but this is not a local, home-every-night job. You must be comfortable traveling throughout the region and staying out of town during the workweek.

What We Offer

  • Pay based on experience
  • Mileage paid
  • Lodging paid while traveling for work
  • Steady work with an established company
  • A small-company environment where reliability and quality work matter

Job Responsibilities

  • Erect, install, and secure structural steel components, including beams, columns, and other steel members.
  • Read and follow blueprints, erection drawings, and layout instructions.
  • Bolt up, align, plumb, and connect structural steel.
  • Perform field measurements and assist with steel layout.
  • Use hand tools, power tools, rigging equipment, and ironworking tools safely.
  • Work with cranes and other crew members to position and install steel.
  • Follow job-site safety procedures and maintain a clean, organized work area.
  • Travel to regional job sites as scheduled.

Requirements

  • Previous structural steel ironworking experience preferred.
  • Knowledge of structural steel erection, bolting, connecting, and alignment.
  • Ability to safely work at heights and on elevated steel.
  • Ability to use common hand tools, power tools, and measuring equipment.
  • Ability to follow directions, read measurements, and work from drawings.
  • Dependable, safety-conscious, and able to work well with a crew.
  • Reliable transportation to the designated reporting location.
  • Willingness and ability to travel regionally and stay out of town during the workweek.
  • Ability to perform the essential physical duties of the job, including lifting materials and working outdoors in varying weather conditions.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Stick welding (SMAW) experience is a plus.
  • Experience welding structural steel in the field.
  • Familiarity with welding equipment, preparation, and basic weld quality requirements.
  • Experience with rigging equipment and aerial lifts.
  • Relevant welding or safety certifications are a plus.

We’re looking for someone who wants steady work, takes pride in what they do, and is willing to travel for the job. If you have structural steel experience, a good work ethic, and are comfortable working out of town most of the week, we’d like to hear from you.
