Job description

As an Insulation Installer, you will focus on installing insulation (fiberglass or rock wool batts) to exterior walls and ceilings. Your day-to-day "office" won't always look the same! However, you can count on the process to provide some consistency.

  • May be required to drive a company vehicle. If so, follow all driving rules and DOT requirements at all times and maintain your tools/truck

Installers also need balance and stability in confined or unstable spaces and may experience strain from pushing and pulling heavy loads or performing repetitive tasks. Strength, endurance, and flexibility are required to prevent injury. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform essential job functions.

Benefits:

  • Medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • Company Paid Life Insurance
  • Longevity Stock Program
  • IBP Foundation
  • Scholarship opportunities
  • Paid vacation and holidays
  • Employee Financial Assistance Program
