About The Position

Bridge Brothers is seeking a Field Foreman to lead and work alongside our bridge installation crews nationwide. This is a very hands-on, labor-driven role — you will be in the field nearly every week, wearing PPE, turning wrenches, rigging steel, and setting the pace for the crew.

You’ll be the first one in and the last one out, setting the standard through action. If you enjoy travel, physical work, problem-solving in real time, and leading crews from the front, this role is built for you.
