Field Operations Manager – Keep the Gears Turning (and the Drywall Hanging)

At  FieldSource Construction , we’re not just about breaking down walls—we’re about building success from the ground up. As a premier commercial interiors trade contractor, we specialize in  interior demolition, light gauge framing, drywall installation, acoustic ceilings, and carpentry . We need someone who can juggle schedules, manage crews, and keep our projects running smoother than freshly sanded drywall. If you thrive on solving problems, coordinating chaos, and leading with a collaborative spirit, read on.

What You’ll Be Doing (A.K.A. Your Day Job) :

  • Overseeing  all field crews , ensuring projects kick off and wrap up with precision.
  • Coordinating  material delivery  and  equipment procurement —because no one likes delays.
  • Supervising and managing  daily operations  on-site to ensure labor, equipment, and materials align for timely completion.
  • Managing  schedules  and handling on-site  client relations  with finesse.
  • Promoting and enforcing  company safety policies  and ensuring compliance with quality standards.
  • Taking charge of crew performance, from  safety audits  to hitting  company goals  (you’re basically the field MVP).
  • Reading and understanding  project documents —construction plans, specs, material data sheets, safety protocols, the works.

What We’re Looking For (Your Toolbox) :

  • Relevant field experience in  light gauge framing drywall installation and finishing acoustic ceiling systems , and  interior carpentry
  • Experience managing  multiple crews  and juggling multiple projects at once.
  • Familiarity with the  equipment, materials, and methods  of commercial construction (bonus points for experience in general construction).
  • A knack for solving problems, resolving conflicts, and communicating like a pro.
  • The ability to stay cool under pressure and meet  tight deadlines  without missing a beat.
  • A safety-first mindset— OSHA posters probably decorate your garage
  • What Kind of Person Thrives Here (It’s You, Right?) :

  • Collaborative , with a can-do attitude that inspires your team.
  • Detail-oriented , because the little things are actually the big things.
  • A natural leader who’s just as comfortable running a safety meeting as you are running a crew.
