Manage the seasonal cycle:
shade installs in spring, take-downs in fall, and a structured winter program of inventory, repair/warranty evaluation, and cleaning. Enforce OSHA-compliant practices and jobsite safety standards across the crew. Build the operational structure the role currently lacks — checklists, schedules, equipment logs, and repeatable processes. Support strong customer relationships by delivering clean installs and handling concerns professionally on site. Train, mentor, and develop installers to raise the overall capability of the team. Coordinate with sales and leadership so field execution keeps pace with the rising volume sales is generating. Maintain accurate records of jobs, productivity, and equipment usage. What We're Looking ForNon-Negotiables Minimum 5 years of construction or installation field experience. Minimum 2 years of crew leadership / supervisory experience — has genuinely run a crew, not just been the senior guy on it.

Thorough knowledge of residential and commercial construction practices, installation methods, tools, and jobsite management. Project planning and coordination ability with strong attention to detail and quality. Comfortable operating — or quickly learning — heavy equipment: skid steers/bobcats, excavation equipment, augers, telehandlers, forklifts. Valid driver's license with an acceptable driving record. Field Requirements Onsite role based in Preston, MD. Physical work including lifting, working at height on lifts, and operating heavy equipment in varied weather. Some travel required depending on project location, with occasional overnight stays. Overtime and occasional weekend work during peak season. Growth Opportunity As Shore Industries grows, this role is the foundation of the operations function. A Lead Installer who demonstrates ownership and delivers results can expand into broader operations-management responsibility — running multiple crews, owning more of the P&L for field operations, and helping build the team as volume scales.
