Marine Construction & Seawall Foreman / Equipment Operator (Welding Required)

ROLE SUMMARY

On Pointe Contracting is hiring an experienced Seawall / Landscaping Foreman & Equipment Operator to lead shoreline construction, seawall installation, excavation, hardscape, grading, drainage, and waterfront development projects throughout Michigan.

At On Pointe, experience means you can perform the work safely, efficiently, and correctly without constant supervision.

If you've only done something a handful of times, that is exposure—not experience.
