Plumbing Foreman

Creature • Birmingham, AL • Full-Time • Travel Required

About Creature

Creature is a vertically integrated Design–Manufacture–Construct (DMC)

company built to eliminate the inefficiencies of traditional construction. We

design, manufacture, and build as one team—leveraging self-perform trades,

modular methodologies, and disciplined field execution to deliver projects that

are faster, higher quality, and lower cost. We believe our best work happens when

it’s self-performed—and our plumbing crews are proof of that.

We at Creature realize that to be successful we must have career employees, not

just workers that come and go. If you are an experienced commercial plumber

with strong leadership skills and you like to travel. We need you!

Purpose of the Role

Lead commercial plumbing installations at the highest level of craft, speed, and

accountability. The Plumbing foreman owns their scope and budget, protects

their crew, and drives outcomes that make the next phase possible.

Key Accountabilities

Safety

• Maintain full OSHA and site-specific compliance every shift—pre-task

plans, hazard ID, and Procore safety documentation completed without

prompting.

• Proactively identify and escalate unsafe conditions. Never work around

them.

• Model safety culture for journeyman and apprentices on every project.

Labor, Material & Tool Management Efficiency

• Execute installations with the manpower, materials, and tools required—no

more, no less. Flag gaps before they stall the work.

• Manage daily material consumption and tool accountability. Shortages and

damage reported same shift.

Accurate Time & Productivity Tracking

• Log time and production quantities daily in Procore—accurate, on time, no

catch-up entries.

• Understands the drawings well enough to know the difference between

planned work and out of scope work. Communicates with Project Manager

to ensure proper change order tracking.

Ruthless Elimination of Waste

• Challenge inefficient sequences, poor staging, and unnecessary motion

before they consume production hours.

• Reduce rework to zero through precise installation and self-checking

before calling for inspection.

• Surface constraints—material holds, coordination gaps, inspection delays—

as soon as they appear, not after they cost time.

Traits That Define Success

• Ownership Mentality — You own your scope, your tools, your crew, and

their performance.

• Compelling Conscientiousness — You install it right the first time, every

time.

• Accountability is Reliability — Your crew and Project Manager can count

on what you say you’ll do.

• Mastery of Communication — You surface problems early, clearly, and with

context.

• Accomplishment over Activity — You measure yourself by production

output, not hours on site.

Qualifications

Must-Have

• Journeyman Plumber license

• 5+ years of field experience with commercial project background

• Valid driver’s license; willingness to travel full-time across multi-state

project locations

• Pre-employment drug screen and background check required

Preferred

• Familiarity with IPC/UPC codes and medical facility plumbing standards

• OSHA 10 certification
