About Sky Limit Crane & Rigging
Sky Limit Crane & Rigging is a growing Central Florida company specializing in mobile crane rental, rigging, heavy haul, and precast erection. We operate a modern fleet of all-terrain cranes and are expanding across the Southeast. We're hiring a CDL Rigger/Oiler to haul counterweights for our all-terrain cranes and support our lifts safely and efficiently.
Position Summary
This is a CDL-required, hands-on field role. The primary responsibility is driving the counterweight truck to transport counterweights and rigging gear for our all-terrain (AT) cranes to and from job sites. Between transport runs, this position works as a rigger and oiler — assisting the crane operator with setup, rigging loads, and servicing the crane. It's an excellent path for someone who wants to grow toward a mobile crane operator (NCCCO) career.

- Load, secure, and unload counterweights and equipment in accordance with DOT cargo-securement standards.
- Perform daily pre-trip and post-trip inspections of the truck and trailer; maintain logs and required documentation.
- Assist the crane operator with AT crane setup — leveling, outrigger placement, counterweight assembly/installation, and rig-up/rig-down.
- Rig loads safely: select and inspect slings, shackles, chains, and hardware and attach loads correctly.
- Perform oiler duties: lubricate, fuel, and service the crane; assist with daily crane inspections and minor maintenance.
- Act as a signal person/spotter during lifts as directed.
- Support job-site setup, teardown, and general rigging labor as needed.
- Maintain a clean, organized truck and equipment and follow all DOT, OSHA, ASME B30, and company safety rules.
Required Qualifications
- Valid Class A or B CDL with an acceptable driving record (clean MVR).
- Ability to pass a DOT physical and maintain DOT compliance.

- Ability to read load/rigging instructions and follow safety procedures.
- Ability to lift 50+ lbs, climb, and work outdoors in varying weather and physically demanding conditions.
- Reliable, punctual, safety-focused, and a strong team player.
- Must pass a pre-employment drug screen and background check.
Preferred Qualifications
- Prior experience supporting mobile / all-terrain cranes.
- NCCCO Rigger and/or Signalperson certification.
- Prior oiler or crane-support experience.
- Experience with counterweight handling and crane assembly/disassembly.

- Company truck and equipment for job duties.
- Paid time off and Paid holidays
- Uniforms, PPE, and paid safety/NCCCO training with a clear path to advancement.
