The posting

We are seeking an experienced Marine Construction Foreman / Heavy Equipment Operator to lead field crews while remaining actively involved in day-to-day marine construction operations.

This is a hands-on foreman position for someone who is comfortable leading a crew and climbing into the equipment when needed. A major part of the role involves operating excavators from barges, so experience working around water, barges, tides, currents, and changing site conditions is highly preferred.

The ideal candidate comes from a marine construction, heavy civil, waterfront, pile driving, or similar construction background and knows how to safely get work done in challenging field conditions.

What You'll Do

  • Lead and organize a marine construction crew in daily field operations
  • Operate excavators and other heavy equipment, including equipment positioned on barges
  • Plan and sequence daily construction activities
  • Read construction plans and perform basic field layout
  • Coordinate crews, materials, barges, boats, and equipment
  • Perform or supervise pile driving, sheet pile installation, shoreline construction, demolition, and lifting operations
  • Account for tides, currents, water levels, spuds, and barge stability when planning and performing work
  • Conduct daily safety meetings and enforce jobsite safety requirements
  • Monitor workmanship and maintain quality standards
  • Communicate schedules, equipment needs, and field conditions with project management
  • Complete daily reports, equipment inspections, and required project documentation
  • Hold crew members accountable for safety, attendance, productivity, and proper equipment care

$65,000–$90,000 annually, depending on experience.

Compensation will be based primarily on marine construction leadership experience, heavy equipment operating ability, and experience operating equipment from barges.

Requirements

  • Previous excavator or heavy equipment operating experience
  • Previous construction foreman or crew leadership experience
  • Ability to read construction plans and understand construction sequencing
  • Strong mechanical and field problem-solving abilities
  • Strong safety awareness and sound judgment
  • Valid driver's license and reliable transportation
  • Ability to work outdoors in marine environments and changing weather conditions
  • Ability to effectively lead and communicate with field crews and management

Candidates with any of the following experience are strongly encouraged to apply:

  • Operating an excavator from a floating barge
  • Marine, waterfront, or heavy civil construction
  • Barges, spuds, push boats, tides, and currents
  • Pile driving and sheet pile installation
  • Rigging, lifting, and signal-person responsibilities
  • Construction layout
  • Shoreline stabilization or waterfront structures
