General Manager

DFW Movers & Erectors is looking for a General Manager for one of our Dallas - Fort Worth locations. If you're ready to lead with purpose, build a high-performing team, and help move the things that make your world, we'd love to hear from you.

As General Manager, you will provide the leadership and direction that keeps our location running at its best — driving sales, managing operations, and building the kind of team that customers and coworkers can count on. Your day-to-day work will center on setting goals, managing schedules, controlling costs, and making sure every job is executed safely and profitably. You'll work closely with our field crews, sales personnel, and company officers to ensure our location grows, our people thrive, and our standards stay high. You'll also roll up your sleeves when needed — because that's the kind of leader we're looking for.

This role is more than just running the numbers — it's about building trust with customers and your team, holding people accountable, and setting the tone for how we show up every day. If you have experience in rigging, industrial machinery, or heavy construction operations — and especially if you've led teams in a fast-moving, hands-on environment — you'll find this a deeply rewarding opportunity. Strong communication skills, mechanical know-how, and a genuine desire to build something great are essential to success here.
