27d•$25 - $30•Onsite

About The Position

Are you a "Field General" who prides yourself on precision, safety, and efficiency? At FASTSIGNS/Pittsburgh , we don’t just "hang signs"—we execute complex installations that define the face of local businesses. We are looking for an elite Lead Installer to take full ownership of our field operations. If you are a highly skilled tradesperson tired of disorganized job sites and missing hardware, this is your chance to lead. We provide the modern tools, the technology, and the professional respect you need to do world-class work without the typical industry headaches. Transferable Skills: High-level experience in Carpentry, Electrical, or Commercial Maintenance translates perfectly to this role.

Requirements

Proven Tradesperson: 3+ years of experience in a skilled trade (Sign Install, Carpentry, or similar). You know exactly which anchor to use for every wall type.
Aerial Mastery: Comfortable and competent operating bucket trucks and working at heights up to 25’+.
Tech-Fluent: You are as comfortable with a smartphone/tablet as you are with a hammer drill. Our workflow is 100% digital.
Physical Capability: Ability to lift 50+ lbs and work outdoors in various weather conditions.
Reliability: You are a "no-excuses" professional. When the Lead doesn't show, the truck doesn't move. High attendance is non-negotiable.
Clean Record: Valid driver’s license and a clean driving record (must be insurable on our commercial policy). Note: Ability to obtain a DOT Medical Card may be required.

Responsibilities

Command the Fleet: Take full management of the install fleet. You are responsible for the "pre-flight" check—ensuring 100% of tools, hardware, and signage are loaded to eliminate costly return trips.
Expert Execution: Perform high-quality installs of channel letters, dimensional signs, and pylon signs across diverse substrates (Brick, EIFS/Stucco, Metal Studs, etc.).
Digital Leadership: Use our project management apps and tablets for site surveys, photo documentation, and real-time updates. If you can’t document it digitally, the job isn’t done.
Site Safety: Operate bucket trucks and aerial lifts in strict accordance with company standards. You are the safety officer on every site.
Client Relations: Act as the primary on-site contact for clients and General Contractors, maintaining a professional presence and a spotless job site.
