CONSTRUCTION FOREMAN/CREW LEADER
About The Position
Veritas Systems Construction is seeking an experienced Construction Foreman / Crew Leader who excels at planning, communication, setting the pace, teaching, and maintaining high standards to get work done effectively with a team. The company has a strong backlog of projects and is looking for a leader to strengthen the existing construction team. This is a hands-on leadership position where the foreman will work alongside the crew, set the pace, and demonstrate standards, while also planning ahead and ensuring the crew has the resources needed to succeed. The company specializes in steel-wood hybrid building systems, including structural steel frames, wood purlins and girts, metal roofing and siding, and framing/installing doors and windows.

The ideal candidate will be dependable, possess a strong work ethic, humility, accountability, communication skills, positivity, and heart. They should earn respect, be coachable, take ownership, communicate effectively, think ahead, and inspire others to improve.
