Earthmoving Sales Manager Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Founded in 1960 by Rudy Gerbus and his brother as Gerbus Bros Construction, Trans Ash began with a strong foundation in mass earthmoving and heavy civil construction. That construction background remains central to who we are today. Over the decades, Trans Ash has grown into an Ohio-based civil construction and environmental services company supporting power generation, utility, and heavy industrial clients across a wide range of complex projects.

In 2023, Trans Ash became part of NorthStar Group, strengthening our ability to serve customers with expanded resources, broader environmental services capabilities, and the support of a larger national organization.
