About The Position

Irby Construction Company is hiring an NCCCO Crane Operator for field-based work in Georgia. The operator must have experience operating and driving cranes up to—and potentially exceeding—250 tons with a boom, as well as driving tractor-trailers. The role includes maintaining and monitoring equipment, safely handling construction materials, inspecting and setting up cranes, and supporting other heavy-equipment work when the crane is not needed or is out of service. This position involves outdoor work, extended periods around heavy equipment and active construction sites, climbing into and out of equipment, and physically strenuous work in all weather conditions. Projects may require overtime, night and weekend work, and travel based on customer requirements. Safety is a condition of employment: operators are expected to take responsibility for every lift and not proceed with work they believe cannot be completed safely. Operators must follow company and customer safety policies, OSHA requirements, manufacturer specifications, and approved lift procedures.
