Foundation Repair Foreman - Structural Crew Lead at Michaelis Corporation – Indianapolis, Indiana

Structural Foreman – Foundation Repair

We’re building the best foundation repair team in Indianapolis.

• Best pay.
• Best crews.
• Best leadership.
• Best customer experience.

And we’re looking for Foremen who want to be part of that standard, not chase it somewhere else.

If you’ve led crews in foundation repair, you already know this work is tough, unpredictable, and exposes weak leadership fast.

We’re building a team of Foremen who take ownership, solve problems, and lead from the front every single day.

Why This Role Is Different

There are two types of Foremen we’re looking for:

• If you’re at a big company but feel like just another number, you’ve got the skill but not the recognition, support, or upside. Here, you have the opportunity to stand out and lead at a higher level.
• If you’re at a smaller company and carrying a lot on your back, you’ve figured things out the hard way but lack systems, support, or growth. Here, you can plug into a stronger operation and level up.

Role Overview

Lead a structural crew to execute foundation repair and waterproofing projects at a high level, on time, on budget, and done right the first time. You own the outcome.

Responsibilities

• Plan and execute foundation repair systems including piers, wall stabilization, drainage, and encapsulation
• Adjust in real time as jobsite conditions change
• Ensure jobs stay on track
• Lead, train, and hold your crew accountable
• Set the pace, standard, and tone on site
• Solve problems without waiting for direction
• Communicate clearly with homeowners
• Ensure work is completed cleanly and professionally

How You Operate

• You take ownership, no excuses
• You solve problems instead of passing them up
• You hold the standard, even when it’s hard
• You lead by example

Compensation and Benefits

• Top-tier hourly pay with a strong performance incentive structure.
• Company truck and tools
• Strong push toward leadership growth
• 401(k) matching
• Health insurance
• Dental insurance
• Vision insurance
• Health Savings Account (HSA)
• Life insurance
• Paid Time Off (PTO)
• Professional development assistance
