Job Description
City Signs is looking for a driven, sharp, hard-working person to join our installation team. We’re setting a high bar. We want someone who learns fast, pays attention to details, and takes ownership of their work. Sign experience isn’t required; we’ll teach the trade to the right person. What we can’t teach is work ethic and attitude, and that’s what we’re hiring for.
Our installers put up and service everything from storefront channel letters to large pylon and monument signs, illuminated and non-illuminated, indoors and out. It’s skilled, hands-on work, and the people who do it well take real pride in it. We’re looking for someone who wants to become one of the best installers in the region.
Who we’re looking for
- You have a strong work ethic and a track record to prove it
- You learn quickly and don’t need to be shown things twice
- You notice details others miss, and you care when something isn’t done right
- You show up on time, every time, ready to work
- You stay positive when the work is hard, hot, or frustrating
- You ask good questions and look for ways to do things better
- You’re mechanically inclined and like working with your hands
What you’ll learn and do
- Install, repair, and service electrical and non-electrical signs
- Operate bucket trucks, lifts, and power equipment safely
- Troubleshoot sign electrical systems
- Read installation drawings and site plans
- Dig footings and set posts for ground signs
- Represent City Signs professionally on customer job sites
Requirements
- Construction or trade experience (framing, electrical, concrete, fencing, landscaping, or similar hands-on work)
- Proficient and safe with hand and power tools
- Able to read and follow plans, drawings, or written instructions accurately
- Comfortable with basic math and measurements
- Clean driving record, valid driver’s license, and reliable transportation
- Comfortable working at heights and outdoors in all conditions
- Able to lift 45+ lbs and handle physically demanding work
- Safety-minded
Helpful, but not required
- Sign installation experience
- Electrical experience or training
- Bucket truck, lift, or heavy equipment experience
- Military service or other work in a demanding, disciplined environment
Schedule: Full-time, Monday–Friday. Some early, late, or occasional weekend jobs. Overtime as needed.
All applicants are drug tested prior to hire. City Signs is an equal opportunity employer.
