Heavy Haul / Transport Supervisor

PROJECT SUPERINTENDENT / FOREMAN | Heavy Haul & Specialized Rigging

The plan may be engineered in the office. The job gets executed in the field. That's where you come in.

At Edwards Moving & Rigging, we take on projects where preparation matters, equipment matters, and experience matters.

But when a crew arrives on site and it's time to move something massive, there has to be someone everyone can look to and ask:

What's the plan, and how are we going to execute it safely?

We are looking for experienced Project Superintendents and Foremen who can answer that question.

This is a hands-on field leadership role for someone who understands heavy rigging and specialized transport, knows how to lead a crew, can read an engineered plan and turn it into field execution, and has the judgment to recognize when something isn't right.

Because at Edwards, field leadership isn't about having the loudest voice on the jobsite. It's about knowing what needs to happen next and earning the trust of the people you're leading.

Key Responsibilities

· Supervise riggers, operators, apprentices, and other crew members.

· Oversee heavy haul, specialized transport, hydraulic gantry, and jack-and-slide operations.

· Review and execute engineered lift plans, move plans, and Job Hazard Analyses (JHAs).

· Coordinate crews, equipment, daily activities, mobilization, and demobilization.

· Verify equipment setups, rigging configurations, and load placement.

· Monitor job-site conditions, identify hazards, and enforce safety procedures.

· Communicate project progress, equipment needs, and challenges to Project Managers.

· Conduct toolbox talks, complete daily reports, and maintain project documentation.

· Train, mentor, and develop less-experienced crew members.

· Exercise stop-work authority when unsafe conditions arise.

What We're Looking For

· Proven experience in heavy haul, specialized transport, or heavy rigging operations.

· Previous supervisory or field leadership experience.

· Strong understanding of hydraulic gantries, jack-and-slide systems, and complex equipment moves.

· Ability to read and interpret engineered lift plans, rigging configurations, and technical instructions.

· Experience coordinating crews, equipment, and jobsite operations.

· Excellent communication, problem-solving, and leadership skills.

· Strong commitment to workplace safety and hazard prevention.

· Ability to make confident decisions and adapt to changing site conditions.
