Working Foreman - Basement Waterproofing

$25-$35/hour + Health & Dental + Retirement Match + Paid Training + Year-Round Work

Lead a Crew. Work With Your Hands. Build Something You Can Be Proud Of.

If you're an experienced construction professional who is ready to take the lead, this could be the opportunity you've been looking for.

At Oriole Basement Waterproofing, our Foremen don't sit on the sidelines telling other people what to do. You will lead your crew, work alongside them, solve problems in the field, interact with homeowners, and take ownership of each project from start to finish.

We're looking for someone who knows construction, takes pride in their work, and wants the opportunity to grow into a strong leader.

You don't need to know basement waterproofing. We'll teach you our process.

What matters most is that you know how to lead people, solve problems, work safely, and get the job done right.

What You'll Get

• $25-$35/hour, based on experience
• Health and dental benefits
• Employer-matched retirement savings plan
• Paid training - we'll teach you our waterproofing systems
• Year-round work - no seasonal layoffs
• Paid drive time back to the shop
• Opportunity to grow into higher-level leadership
• A company that values quality over shortcuts
• A team that takes pride in doing the job right
• The opportunity to build skills in a specialized and growing trade

What Your Day Will Look Like

You'll be responsible for running residential basement waterproofing projects while working alongside your crew.

You'll:

• Lead and motivate your crew on the jobsite
• Review job plans, work orders, and contracts before starting
• Plan ahead and keep the project moving
• Communicate with homeowners and answer questions professionally
• Solve problems when unexpected issues come up
• Complete basement demolition and excavation work
• Install sump pumps and perform basic plumbing work
• Remove and reinstall toilets, sinks, washers, and dryers when required
• Complete concrete patching and basic restoration
• Operate construction equipment safely
• Maintain a clean, organized, and safe jobsite
• Train and develop less-experienced crew members
• Make sure our quality and safety standards are followed on every job

We're Looking for Someone Who...

Has construction experience and wants to lead.

You don't have to know everything about waterproofing. We can teach the technical side of the trade.

We're looking for someone who:

• Has experience in residential or general construction
• Has experience leading a crew or is ready to step into a leadership role
• Is comfortable working with their hands every day
• Can read and understand job plans and contracts
• Thinks ahead and solves problems instead of waiting for someone else
• Communicates well with homeowners and coworkers
• Takes pride in quality workmanship
• Can stay calm when things don't go according to plan
• Is dependable and takes ownership of their work
• Has a valid driver's license
• Can obtain DOT certification

Experience in These Areas Is a Plus

You don't need all of these.

• Basement waterproofing
• Foundation repair
• Plumbing
• Concrete
• Masonry
• Residential construction
• Mini skid steer or mini excavator
• Construction equipment

If you're a strong construction professional who learns quickly, don't let the lack of waterproofing experience stop you from applying.

Why Oriole?

At Oriole Basement Waterproofing, we help homeowners protect one of their biggest investments.

We believe in doing the job right--not cutting corners to get it done faster.

You'll work with a team that supports each other, takes pride in the finished product, and wants to see good people grow.

This isn't just another construction job.

It's an opportunity to learn a specialized trade, lead your own crew, build your skills, and grow with a company that is continuing to expand.
