Yard Supervisor

Job Summary Yard Supervisor is a critical, hands-on member of Brownco Construction Company, Inc.'s Field Operations support structure. This position is responsible for the complete day-to-day management of Brownco's construction shop and yard — including organization, cleanliness, material handling, inventory, load preparation, and the safe operation of material-handling equipment. The Yard Supervisor is the foundation that ensures Brownco's field operations are continuously supplied, equipped, and ready to work. This is a working position, not an administrative one. Yard Supervisor is expected to be physically engaged in yard and shop activities throughout the workday — loading structural steel and concrete materials, operating forklifts, receiving deliveries, staging materials for jobsite delivery, and maintaining the overall condition of Brownco's yard and shop. Responsibilities are dynamic and may shift from coordinating a flatbed load for a field crew to sweeping the yard, and the right individual will take ownership of both without hesitation. The Yard Supervisor reports directly to the Field Operations Manager and works in close coordination with the Field Operations Coordinator, the Procurement Manager, field foremen, and drivers. This position plays a direct role in Brownco's ability to mobilize crews and support active projects across Southern California. Responsibilities 1. Yard & Shop Organization and Cleanliness Maintain a clean, organized, safe, and operationally efficient shop and yard at all times. Keep all aisles, loading areas, workspaces, and access points clear and unobstructed. Establish and maintain a logical, efficient layout for the storage of steel, concrete materials, tools, consumables, and equipment. Perform general shop and yard duties including sweeping, cleanup, trash removal, and miscellaneous labor as needed — no task is beneath this position. Take full ownership of the physical condition and daily readiness of the shop and yard. 2. Material Handling & Load Operations Load and unload structural steel, concrete materials, tools, equipment, and all other construction materials safely and efficiently. Safely secure, strap, and prepare all loads for transportation in compliance with DOT and company standards. Prepare materials, tools, and equipment for delivery to Brownco jobsites in advance of scheduled need dates. Assist with all incoming and outgoing pickup and delivery operations. Ensure all outbound loads are complete, accurate, and properly documented before departure. 3. Forklift & Equipment Operation Operate forklifts, pallet jacks, and other material-handling equipment safely and in compliance with OSHA requirements and Brownco safety policy. Exercise particular care and skill when operating forklifts around long, heavy, and irregularly shaped materials including structural steel. Maintain active Brownco-required forklift certification; report any certification gaps to the Field Operations Manager immediately. Conduct pre-operation equipment checks prior to each use; report any mechanical concerns to the Field Operations Manager. 4. Deliveries & Receiving Receive all incoming deliveries of materials, tools, equipment, and supplies at the yard. Verify incoming deliveries against purchase orders or packing slips; immediately report any discrepancies, shortages, or damaged materials to the Procurement Manager and Field Operations Manager. Stage, organize, and store received materials in designated locations within the yard and shop. Maintain a clean and accessible receiving area at all times. 5. Vehicle & Equipment Movement Move company pickup trucks, flatbed trucks, trailers, and other equipment within the yard as required. Ensure all company vehicles are repositioned safely and without damage. Valid California driver's license with a clean driving record is required. 6. Inventory Support Assist with the inventory, tracking, and documentation of tools, materials, and equipm…
