Precast Concrete Surface Finishing Supervisor
About The Position
A day in this role Sun-up on the precast yard: you walk the beds, shop cards in hand from a quick review with the Manager. Before the first trowel hits the surface, you’ve already verified the dry finish requirements for each bed form and matched them to the day’s products. You assign the right mix of Concrete Finishers (Class B) to each piece, brief the team on the precise finish needed, and call out any special directions for texture or appearance. As the crew executes, you stay hands-on—sawing off strand ends, sacking blemishes on members, and rocking panel edges when needed. If production deadlines tighten, you jump in to perform dry finishing to keep the schedule on track. Each piece that meets spec is green-tagged before it heads to storage. If something needs a second pass, you coordinate and apply rework without hesitation. Throughout, you uphold safety and quality procedures to protect people and ensure consistent, high-caliber products. What you’ll lead and do Supervise Specialty Finishers and Concrete Finishers applying dry finishes to concrete members. Confirm the correct dry finish for every bed form prior to production. Review shop cards with the Manager to align plans and priorities. Assign one or more Class B Concrete Finishers to each concrete product. Direct finishers on the exact dry finish required for each product and outline any special instructions. Perform hands-on tasks as needed: saw off strand ends, sack members, and rock panel edges. Execute dry finishing personally when necessary to meet production schedules. Apply rework to products to achieve required specifications. Carry out additional tasks as directed by your Supervisor. Champion all safety and quality processes to maintain a safe workplace and produce top-quality concrete products.
