  • I have 2 years of experience as a foreman, 6 years experience in trade, started as Laborer and continued to learn and improve and climb the ranks
  • As a foreman, I am on the job sites every morning to oversee how things go.
  • Plan how the day goes, what needs to get done, how to do it, and make sure I have materials onsite for the week.
  • Stay involved with the onsite Superintendent, electricians, plumbers, and any trade that may have something that involves their materials that may interfere with any masonry work.
  • Stay on top of safety protocols with the workers under my direction, ensuring, to the best of my ability, that every day passes without injury.
  • Go over the plans for the job every day and ensure that what is being called to get done is getting done, per the plans.
  • On sites that require daily/weekly reports, I make sure they are filled out and completed, as well as any tickets that need to be written up and submitted.
  • Trained new employees on company policies and day-to-day procedures.
  • Supervised a year-long project in Millsboro, ran a large crew of over 20 workers daily, waterproofed the entire building, and supervised a subcontractor for the stone work around the building until completion.
