Job description

FOREMAN RIGGER

Location: Glasgow

UK-wide industrial company

This is not a title role. This is a working foreman position in heavy industrial environments.

You'll lead crews on complex rigging and machine moving projects across safety-critical sites. You'll still be hands‑on – but you'll also be the person setting standards, controlling risk and making sure the job is done properly.

What this role actually involves

• Leading rigging and machine moving teams on live industrial sites
• Taking ownership of RAMS, permits and site safety
• Coordinating lifts, jacking, skidding and crane interface
• Acting as the point of contact between site, crew and client
• Working in environments where mistakes are not tolerated

What you'll need

• Strong industrial rigging background
• Proven experience leading teams on site
• Solid safety mindset (COMAH / heavy industry experience preferred)
• Relevant tickets (SSSTS/SMSTS beneficial)
• Flexibility to travel and work away when required

This will suit you if

• You lead from the front
• You're calm under pressure
• You don't need micromanaging
• You care about doing things the right way

If you're looking for an easy ride, this isn't it. If you want responsibility, stability and respect – it might be.
