Description du poste

Pre-Fabrication Supervisor | Western New York

Up to $95,000 + Benefits | Fully Site-Based | Structural Steel

What if your next move put you at the heart of a major steel fabrication operation?

I'm working with an established structural steel fabricator that is expanding its US manufacturing capabilities in Western New York.

They're looking for a Pre-Fabrication Supervisor who knows what it takes to keep a fabrication floor moving - someone who can lead from the front, coordinate people and production, and make sure the work is right before it moves further through the facility.

This isn't a desk-based supervisory position.

You’ll be on the floor, working alongside fabrication teams, solving problems, managing priorities and making sure production stays on track.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Supervise and coordinate pre-fabrication activities across the production floor


• Lead fabrication personnel and allocate manpower according to production priorities


• Coordinate daily workflow and production requirements


• Ensure materials and components are correctly prepared before fabrication


• Read and interpret structural steel fabrication drawings


• Work closely with engineering, production, quality and EHS teams


• Identify bottlenecks and resolve issues before they impact schedule


• Monitor productivity, workmanship and production quality


• Ensure employees follow company safety procedures


• Support training, coaching and development of fabrication personnel


• Help improve production processes, efficiency and workflow


• Communicate progress, challenges and requirements to production management

What We’re Looking For

We're looking for someone who understands structural steel from the shop floor up.

Ideally, you’ll bring:

• 5+ years of structural steel fabrication experience


• Previous supervisory or lead experience within a fabrication environment


• Experience supervising welders, fitters, fabricators or similar trades


• Strong understanding of pre-fabrication and material preparation


• Ability to read and interpret structural steel drawings


• Experience working within a production-driven environment


• Strong understanding of quality and safety requirements


• Ability to coordinate multiple priorities and keep production moving


• Strong communication and leadership skills


• A hands-on approach to problem solving

Experience with large-scale structural steel fabrication, automated equipment or production systems would be highly advantageous.

Why This Opportunity?

You’ll be joining a large-scale, technically advanced steel fabrication operation with the backing and resources of an established international organisation.

This is an opportunity to take your fabrication experience into a position where you’ll have real influence over people, production and performance.

If you’re the type of supervisor who would rather be on the floor solving problems than sitting behind a desk waiting for them, this could be worth a conversation.
