Job description

Unicoat Industrial Roofing is a specialized commercial roofing contractor focused on delivering high-performance coating and restoration solutions for industrial and commercial facilities. With deep expertise in fluid-applied systems, roof restoration, and maintenance, Unicoat helps customers extend roof life, improve energy efficiency, and reduce long-term capital costs. Our team works across a wide range of building types, providing tailored solutions that minimize disruption and maximize performance. We are always looking for driven professionals who want to build their careers while contributing to innovative, results-oriented roofing solutions.

POSITION SUMMARY

The Foam & Coatings Foreman is a skilled field role responsible for the safe, high-quality application of spray polyurethane foam and elastomeric/industrial coating systems on commercial and industrial roofing projects. This is a hands-on craft role for an applicator who knows how to read a scope of work, operate and repair a rig, and lay down material that passes inspection the first time. The right candidate is meticulous about prep, deliberate about spray technique, and uncompromising on safety.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Apply spray polyurethane foam and elastomeric/industrial coatings to manufacturer specification on commercial and industrial roofing projects.
  • Prep substrates for application including cleaning, priming, masking, and addressing penetrations, flashings, and transitions.
  • Operate and maintain spray rigs, proportioners, hoses, and spray guns; perform daily equipment checks and troubleshoot common issues in the field.
  • Follow all PPE, respirator, and confined-space safety protocols and complete a JHA on every job, with zero tolerance for shortcuts.
  • Document each job with substrate prep notes, batch numbers, mil thickness readings, weather conditions, and photos, submitted by end of workday.
  • Coordinate with the operations manager to manage material usage, hit production targets, and keep jobs on budget.

QUALIFICATIONS

Required Experience

  • 2 to 5 years of hands-on experience applying spray polyurethane foam (SPF) and elastomeric/industrial coatings on commercial or industrial roofing projects.
  • Working knowledge of major SPF and coating manufacturers (e.g., NCFI, BASF, Carlisle/Henry, Gaco, Versaflex, or similar) and their application specifications.
  • Proficient operating high-pressure plural-component spray equipment and proportioners (e.g., Graco Reactor, PMC, or similar).
  • Experience leading or training a junior applicator or helper.
  • Ability to read and interpret mil thickness readings, density checks, and manufacturer data sheets.
  • Strong working knowledge of OSHA safety standards including fall protection, respiratory protection, and confined-space entry.
  • Valid driver's license required; clean driving record preferred.

Preferred Experience

  • SPFA certification (Roofing Installer or higher) or equivalent manufacturer training.
  • Experience on industrial substrates including metal decking, concrete, and built-up roof recover applications.
  • Bilingual English/Spanish a plus.

Physical Requirements

  • Ability to lift and carry up to 75 pounds repeatedly (drums, hoses, equipment).
  • Ability to climb ladders, work at heights, and remain on feet for extended periods on commercial and industrial roof systems.
  • Ability to work outdoors in heat, humidity, and varying weather conditions.
  • Ability to wear a full-face respirator and PPE for extended periods during spray operations.
  • Comfort working in elevated spaces and around plural-component chemicals.
