About the Opportunity

Our client is a privately owned crane and rigging construction services company based in Green Island, NY.

  • Review job details to make sure everything needed to complete the work is accounted for
  • Apply for required permits ahead of scheduled work
  • Work alongside project managers and sales, who set up jobs and enter the necessary information into the system
  • Manage smaller jobs completed within a few hours as well as larger projects that can take up to a week
  • Stay on top of multiple jobs moving at once and keep everything properly coordinated
  • Help coordinate work before crews arrive on site and make sure everything is cleaned up after jobs are completed
  • Help keep crews safe and customers satisfied
  • Use industry-specific software (Nexgen / Atom) and Microsoft programs to manage job information


What You Bring

Must Haves

  • 3 years of construction operations or dispatch experience
  • Experience coordinating crews, equipment, trucks, trailers, and overall job logistics
  • Ability to manage multiple jobs, schedules, and priorities at the same time
