Position Summary

The ideal candidate can work independently with a helper, make sound field decisions, communicate professionally with clients, and take ownership of completing projects safely, accurately, and on schedule.

We are looking for an installer who understands that the quality of the installation is just as important as the quality of the product itself.

• Maintain company vehicles, tools, and equipment in clean and operational condition
• Travel as required for regional and multi-site installation projects
• Work overtime, evenings, and weekends as required to support project schedules and client requirements

Qualifications

• Stable long-term employment
• Professional team environment
• Opportunity to work on complex, high-profile projects throughout the region

Why Join GraphTec?

At GraphTec, you will work on custom projects that require precision, professionalism, and pride in execution. We are not a high-volume commodity sign shop — we specialize in detailed architectural and environmental graphics programs for demanding clients and environments.

We value installers who:

• Take ownership
• Communicate professionally
