This is a hands-on field leadership position. The Project Team Lead serves as the Project Manager's primary field leader and is responsible for turning the project plan into successful daily execution. You will lead Movers, Installers, Drivers, and other assigned field personnel while remaining willing and able to perform the work alongside your team when needed. We are looking for someone who leads from the front. You should be comfortable being the first field leader onsite, organizing the crew, reading the plans, solving problems, maintaining productivity, and stepping into the work when necessary to keep the project moving. What You Will Do Serve as the onsite field leader for assigned commercial moving and FF&E projects. Arrive before the assigned crew when required to confirm jobsite readiness, access, equipment, materials, and daily requirements. Review project scope, floor plans, furniture plans, blueprints, schedules, sequencing, and daily work requirements. Conduct crew briefings and clearly communicate daily assignments, safety requirements, client expectations, and production goals. Direct Movers, Installers, Drivers, and other assigned field personnel. Maintain accountability for crew attendance, punctuality, productivity, workmanship, safety, and professional conduct. Coordinate packing, labeling, loading, unloading, staging, relocation, furniture assembly/disassembly, installation, placement, and punch-list activities. Personally assist with moving, installation, loading, unloading, furniture handling, and other field activities when operationally necessary. Respond to call-outs, employee walk-offs, staffing shortages, and changing field conditions by reorganizing resources and stepping into the work when necessary to maintain project execution. Monitor project progress throughout the shift and promptly communicate staffing, schedule, quality, safety, access, or client concerns to the Project Manager. Protect client property, furniture, equipment, floors, walls, elevators, doors, and other building finishes. Ensure required equipment, tools, dollies, carts, blankets, crates, bins, straps, protection materials, and supplies are available and properly accounted for. Identify and correct field quality deficiencies before they become client issues. Train and coach field employees on proper moving, furniture installation, safety, and PROVEN procedures. Document project progress, incidents, damages, delays, staffing issues, equipment concerns, and work remaining. Provide the Project Manager with an accurate end-of-shift status and requirements for the next workday. Maintain professional communication with clients, building management, vendors, subcontractors, and PROVEN personnel.

A standard workday is generally a nine-hour scheduled shift consisting of eight working hours and a one-hour unpaid meal break. Start and end times vary based on project requirements. Candidates must be able to reliably report for a 6:00 AM start when assigned. Because this is a field leadership position, the Team Lead may be required to arrive before the assigned crew to prepare for the day's work and ensure the jobsite is ready for operations.

The Leader We Are Looking For We want a Team Lead who takes ownership. You arrive prepared. You know the plan before the crew starts. You set expectations. You teach employees who need development and hold people accountable when expectations are not met. When something changes in the field, you do not simply call the Project Manager with a problem. You assess the situation, communicate clearly, recommend a solution, and help keep the project moving safely. You are willing to do the same work you expect your team to do. About
