Why this job is worth a phone call
You drive our truck and trailer — no miles on your own rig, no gas out of your pocket. You use
our tools — power tools, hand tools, augers, welder, skid steer. We provide it. You answer to
the owner directly, which means decisions happen the same day you ask. We've got steady
backlog, repeat customers, and reviews we're proud of. Pay is $26–$28/hour DOE plus
overtime, paid time off, paid holidays, and real room above this role as we build out the field
side. And if you bring real fence experience, there's a $5,000 signing bonus on the table —
$1,000 once you hit 30 days, and the other $4,000 at 90 days once you've shown us you can
run a crew. The first 90 days are your shot to prove you're the foreman we're looking for. Show
up, lead, finish clean, and it's yours.
About HT Fencing
HT Fencing is an owner-run shop based in Prescott Valley. We install chain-link, ornamental
iron, vinyl, and No-Climb fencing, plus gates and gate operators — residential, agricultural, and
light commercial — across Northern Arizona. Small team, no corporate playbook, customers
who call us back.
What the role is
Working foreman. You run the crew and you swing tools. You're the person the homeowner talks
to on-site, the person who decides where the first post goes, and the person who sets the pace.
The work is a mix: residential installs that run one to three days each, ag fencing out on bigger
properties, and the occasional gate operator job. You'll lead a crew of anywhere from a couple
of guys to a handful, depending on the job. Most days you're on the road somewhere in Yavapai
County — a ranch one day, a suburban backyard the next.
Out here the ground fights back. A lot of these jobs mean drilling post holes through caliche, so
you know what it takes to set a line in hard ground and keep the crew moving when the digging
is slow.
Day to day:
- Confirm the job, load the truck, get the crew on-site on time.
- Read the contract and estimating sheet. Walk the property, mark the line, locate utilities.
- Set posts, run rails, hang gates, weld where the job calls for it. Chain-link, ornamental,
vinyl, No-Climb.
- Run the crew — direct the work, keep people moving and safe.
- Talk to the customer like a human. Set expectations. Flag what you can't decide back to
Armando.
- Close the job clean: walkthrough, photos, signoff, debris hauled, gate operating right.
- Knock out the paperwork (time sheets, gate tags, end-of-day in JobTread — we'll train
you on JobTread if you're not on it).
What you need to have
- Trade experience required. Fencing is a plus, not a requirement. Carpentry,
concrete, metal work, dig crews, general construction — if you've been swinging tools
and running jobs, we'll teach you fence. What we can't teach is showing up, leading a
crew, and finishing work clean.
- Lead-level experience — you've run a small crew without somebody standing over you.
- Valid AZ driver's license, clean record, comfortable behind the wheel of a truck and
trailer.
- English required. Bilingual (English / Spanish) is a strong plus.
- Legally authorized to work in the U.S. (E-Verify on hire.)
- Able to lift 100 lbs, work outdoors in all weather, travel across Yavapai County.
What earns you a callback — and the bonus
- Fence experience — chain-link, ornamental, vinyl, No-Climb. This is what puts the
$5,000 signing bonus in play.
- Ornamental iron and welding.
- Gate operator experience (LiftMaster, FAAC, or similar).
- Yavapai County work history — you already know what caliche does to an auger.
