Job Description

Key Responsibilities

Planning & Coordination

Review and interpret design drawings and project specifications pertaining to steel columns, rafters, and sheeting systems. Develop, monitor and update installation schedules in line with project milestones for structural frame erection and enclosure works. Coordinate material delivery for steel columns, rafters, roof and wall sheeting, insulation and accessories to ensure no delays. Manage daily activities of site supervisors, subcontractors and erection crews for both the structural framework (columns/rafters) and the cladding/insulation works.

Site Execution

Supervise the installation of structural steel columns and rafter systems, ensuring correct alignment, connections, and integrity prior to sheeting. Oversee the installation of roofing sheets, wall panels, insulation, flashings, and accessories once the structural frame is erected. Ensure that columns, rafters and sheeting systems are installed according to design, checking alignment, fasteners, overlaps, sealing, finish quality, and structural ties. Verify compliance of structural and enclosure works with client specifications, local building codes (including load transfer through columns/rafters) and safety standards. Identify and resolve on-site technical or logistical issues--especially those related to steel frame erection and integration of sheeting/cladding works.

Quality Assurance & Safety

Implement and maintain strict quality control procedures during both the structural steel erection (columns/rafters) and sheeting/cladding installation. Conduct routine inspections, maintain checklists and as-built documentation covering structural columns, rafter systems, and sheeting works. Ensure adherence to HSE standards and promote a proactive safety culture, particularly when working at height on rafters, and during frame erection. Coordinate with QA/QC teams and third-party inspectors as required for both structural and enclosure stage inspections.

Communication & Reporting

Provide daily and weekly progress reports to the Project Manager, covering structural frame erection (columns/rafters) and the sheeting/cladding phases. Maintain detailed site records, including manpower deployment, materials consumption (structural steel vs sheeting/insulation), and incident logs across both structural and envelope scopes. Attend project coordination and progress review meetings involving structural, procurement, and site execution stakeholders. Report risks, delays, and deviations--particularly those impacting the structural frame or enclosure installation--and propose corrective actions.

Qualifications & Experience

Bachelor's Degree in Civil, Mechanical, or Structural Engineering. 5-7 years of experience in steel structure works--particularly erection of steel columns, rafters and sheeting/cladding systems. Experience with industrial and large-scale infrastructure projects preferred.

Technical Skills

Strong knowledge of steel structure components: columns, rafters, purlins, girts, panels, fasteners, insulation systems and their connections. Ability to read and interpret structural drawings as well as installation manuals for both the frame (columns/rafters) and the sheeting envelope. Proficient in AutoCAD, MS Office, and project scheduling tools (MS Project / Primavera preferred). Familiarity with local construction and structural codes, load paths through columns and rafters, and QA/QC standards for structural and cladding work.

Soft Skills

Excellent communication and coordination abilities with structural design, procurement, site execution and subcontractor teams. Strong leadership and team management across both structural frame erection and envelope installation. Analytical thinking, problem-solving skills and attention to detail (especially in structural alignment, load transfer, and finishing). Commitment to safety, quality, and meeting deadlines under both structural and sheeting scopes.

Preferred Certifications (Not Mandatory)

OSHA or equivalent safety certification. PMP or project management training. Working at Height certification (particularly relevant when working on rafters and roof installations).

Work Conditions

Site-based position involving fieldwork, inspections and supervision of both structural frame erection and envelope installation. May require travel to multiple project sites. Flexibility for extended hours during peak installation phases (frame erection and cladding/insulation fitting).
