Full Job Description

Architectural Metal Installer / Lead Installer
Performance Pay | Full-Time | Based in Ames, Iowa

C&K is hiring Architectural Metal Installers and Lead Installers to join our growing commercial installation team.

We are looking for people who take pride in building things correctly, work well with their hands, and want their earnings tied to performance—not simply time on the clock. Previous architectural metal experience is valuable, but experience in construction, framing, roofing, siding, metal buildings, or similar trades can also provide a strong foundation.

Lead Installers will guide small crews, coordinate field execution, and take responsibility for production and quality. Installers and Helpers will work alongside experienced team members while developing their skills and taking on greater responsibility.

Our crews install architectural sheet metal systems on commercial projects throughout Iowa. Work may include coping, fascia, flashings, edge metal, wall panels, trims, gutters, screens, and related components.

What You’ll Do

Install pre-fabricated and custom-fabricated architectural sheet metal systems
Measure, lay out, cut, fit, fasten, and seal metal components
Read plans, elevations, details, layouts, and field measurements
Safely operate hand tools, power tools, ladders, lifts, and other jobsite equipment
Help coordinate materials, tools, equipment, and jobsite execution
Solve field-fit and installation challenges while maintaining quality
Work efficiently as part of a small crew
Maintain a clean, organized, and safe work area
Communicate with crew leaders, shop support, and project leadership
Protect completed work and prevent mistakes, damage, and callbacks

What We’re Looking For

We are interested in candidates with experience in one or more of the following:

Architectural sheet metal
Commercial roofing or roofing-related metal
Siding and exterior wall systems
Metal buildings
Framing or general construction
Flashings, trims, gutters, or façade components
Blueprint reading, layout, or field measurement

The right candidate will be:

Reliable, organized, and ready to work
Comfortable learning technical installation details
Able to think spatially and solve problems in the field
Focused on both production and workmanship
Comfortable working at heights, on rooftops, and from ladders and lifts
Able to follow written and verbal instructions
Willing to take ownership and be accountable to the crew
Interested in developing specialized skills and increasing earning potential

Previous architectural metal experience is preferred for Lead Installers. Candidates with related construction experience may be considered for Installer or Helper positions and trained for advancement.

Performance-Based Pay

This position uses a performance-based pay structure tied to completed work.

C&K writes labor contracts for defined projects or portions of work. Each contract is assigned a labor value based on the scope, complexity, and hours reasonably expected to complete the work. Pay is distributed as work is completed and accepted.

Crews that complete quality work efficiently can earn more. The more effective the installer and crew, the greater the earning potential.

Lead Installers receive a larger share of each contract in recognition of their responsibility for crew coordination, production, quality, safety, and successful completion. Installers and Helpers can earn larger shares as their skills, independence, and contribution increase.

Our contracts are built with ample labor hours for qualified crews. The goal is to reward people who produce strong work, stay organized, prevent callbacks, and keep projects moving.

Schedule

Monday through Friday
Typical hours are 7:00 a.m. to 3:45 p.m.
Overtime, weekend work, and overnight travel are occasional and depend on project demands
Work is performed at commercial jobsites throughout Iowa

Requirements

Valid Iowa driver’s license
Ability to pass a background check and drug screening
Ability to lift 75+ pounds
Comfortable working on ladders, lifts, rooftops, and active construction sites
Able to follow and enforce safety expectations
Able to work outdoors in changing weather conditions
Dependable transportation and consistent attendance
Able to follow written plans and verbal direction

Why C&K?

Get paid for production—not just attendance
Strong earning potential for efficient, quality-focused installers
Higher contract shares for crew leaders
Paid training and opportunities to learn a specialized commercial trade
Clear path from Helper to Installer, Lead Installer, and greater leadership
Work supported by C&K’s fabrication and project teams
Health and dental insurance
Retirement plan with company match
Paid time off and paid holidays
Opportunities for advancement
A team that values accountability, organization, communication, and growth
