About B.A.M. Industrial Services

We are seeking an experienced, hands-on Traveling Working Foreman / Site Lead to supervise and perform the installation, assembly, alignment, and relocation of industrial machinery and production equipment.

The position is home-based. The employee will travel directly from home to assigned customer jobsites and is not required to report regularly to our Orlando office.

• Read and interpret equipment layouts, mechanical drawings, assembly drawings, schematics, and technical manuals.
• Verify that installations comply with drawings, manufacturer specifications, quality standards, and customer requirements.
• Coordinate machinery moves, equipment setting, lifting, and rigging activities.
• Direct the safe use of forklifts, telehandlers, scissor lifts, boom lifts, hoists, and other material-handling equipment.
• Conduct daily pre-task planning, toolbox talks, and job hazard analyses as required.
• Enforce OSHA requirements, lockout/tagout procedures, fall-protection rules, PPE requirements, and customer safety policies.
• Coordinate with customers, project managers, subcontractors, equipment suppliers, and other trades.
• Monitor labor hours, materials, equipment, project progress, and installation quality.
• Identify installation conflicts and resolve mechanical or electro-mechanical issues in the field.
• Support equipment startup, testing, troubleshooting, punch-list completion, and commissioning.
• Maintain accurate daily reports, time records, expense reports, progress updates, and project documentation.
• Maintain a professional, clean, organized, and safe jobsite.
• Travel extensively and work overtime, weekends, nights, or extended shifts when required by project schedules.

Required Qualifications

• At least five years of hands-on experience with industrial machinery installation, millwright work, equipment assembly, industrial maintenance, or a closely related field.
• Previous experience as a working foreman, lead installer, crew leader, site lead, or similar field leadership position.
• Ability to lead a crew while continuing to perform hands-on installation work.
• Strong mechanical and electro-mechanical troubleshooting skills.
• Experience installing large industrial machinery, production lines, conveyors, automated equipment, or comparable systems.
• Experience with machinery setting, leveling, alignment, anchoring, and mechanical assembly.
• Ability to read and work from mechanical drawings, equipment layouts, schematics, and assembly instructions.
• Working knowledge of rigging methods, lifting equipment, and safe machinery-moving practices.
• OSHA 10-Hour Construction or General Industry course completion card appropriate for assigned jobsites.
• Strong jobsite communication, leadership, organization, and problem-solving skills.
• Willingness and ability to travel extensively and remain away from home for the duration of assigned projects.
