Direct Hire | Based in Tulsa, OK | Nationwide Travel with Per Diem & Paid Lodging
Role Overview
A commercial and industrial concrete contractor is hiring a Concrete Construction Foreman to lead field crews on projects across the United States. The role is based out of Tulsa — you report to headquarters and then travel out to project sites, with lodging covered and a daily per diem paid throughout.

The client is moving quickly and is motivated to hire immediately.

- Schedule labour, equipment, and materials to complete assigned scope on programme
- Monitor workmanship against project specifications and quality standards
- Coordinate day to day with the Superintendent, Project Manager, subcontractors, inspectors, and suppliers
- Maintain accurate daily reports covering manpower, production, equipment usage, and safety observations
- Identify and resolve field issues before they hit the schedule
- Run daily safety meetings and job hazard analyses; enforce company safety policy and OSHA regulations
- Train, mentor, and develop crew members
- Support project planning and sequencing to meet production targets
