Building New Haven County — One Crew at a Time
QUARRY CRUSHING FOREMAN
Run the Plant. Lead the Crew. Own the Shift.
Full-Time | New Haven County, CT
If you know your way around a crusher plant and can get the best out of a crew, this is your seat. Haynes Group is looking for an experienced Quarry Crushing Foreman to take ownership of daily plant operations — the person everyone looks to when equipment needs troubleshooting, production needs pushing, and the crew needs a leader who's been in the trenches. This isn't an entry-level supervisor role. It's a chance to run your own operation, with the backing of a company that's been building New Haven County for generations.
WHY YOU'LL WANT THIS JOB
-
Real ownership of the plant floor — not micromanaged from an office
-
Work for a vertically integrated developer with steady, long-term projects — not a here-today, gone-tomorrow contractor
-
Lead and mentor a crew, with the authority to make the calls that keep production moving
-
Path to grow with a company actively expanding across active development sites
WHAT YOU'LL OWN
-
Run daily crushing plant operations start to finish — startup, shutdown, and everything in between
-
Lead, train, and mentor plant operators, laborers, and maintenance crew
-
Keep the plant compliant — MSHA/OSHA regulations and company safety procedures, every shift
-
Hit production goals and quality specs, and know the numbers behind them
-
Inspect crushers, screens, conveyors, and equipment to keep the line running safe and strong
-
Coordinate maintenance and repairs, and flag mechanical issues before they become downtime
-
Keep clean, accurate production, maintenance, and safety records
-
Be the communication link between the plant floor and management on schedules, staffing, and issues
-
Enforce a clean, organized, hazard-free plant — housekeeping is part of the job, not an afterthought
-
Troubleshoot equipment problems and find ways to squeeze more efficiency out of the plant
-
Manage environmental compliance, including dust control and material handling
WHAT YOU BRING
-
High school diploma or GED; technical or trade training is a plus
-
3–5+ years in aggregate, mining, or rock crushing operations
-
Supervisory or lead experience — you've run a shift or a crew before
-
Sharp working knowledge of crushing plant equipment and material flow
-
Comfort with MSHA/OSHA regulations and safety best practices
-
Can read and act on production schedules, maintenance logs, and equipment manuals
-
Leadership, communication, and problem-solving chops — people follow you because you're good, not just because you're the boss
A PLUS IF YOU HAVE
-
Experience with plant automation or control systems
-
Mechanical aptitude and hands-on troubleshooting skills
-
Strong organizational and time-management instincts
THE WORK ITSELF
-
Outdoor, industrial quarry/aggregate setting — this is a hands-on, on-your-feet job
-
Standing, walking, climbing, bending, and lifting up to 50 lbs
-
Extended hours, weekends, or shifts as production demands — with the bonus to match
-
Noise, dust, heavy equipment, and moving machinery are part of the environment; full PPE required at all times
