West Coast Pre Fab is a locally owned and growing industrial and commercial construction and maintenance company. As the number and value of our projects grow, so does the management and coordination required to maintain on-time and on-budget delivery.

This position is targeted to a person with experience in industrial piping. The ideal candidate has come from the pipefitting trade and already moved into supervision or the office in quality assurance or coordination. Some technical backgrounds with piping experience may be considered but field experience pipe fitting is the most likely to get a call back.

The specifics and terminology of our industry can be learned over time, but the candidate must be flexible and practical.
Candidates must be comfortable working with a team of engineers, project managers, drafts-people, and trades people. While they will manager their own jobs, they will rely on many others within the organization.
