Full job description

Overview
At Lakeshore Fiber, we’re building more than ultra‑fast internet — we’re building stronger, more connected communities across Northern Michigan. As our Field Operations Supervisor, you’ll play a pivotal role in making that mission real on the ground.

This is your chance to lead field teams who bring world‑class fiber connectivity to the city of Alpena. You’ll guide daily operations, champion safety and quality, and keep our network rollout moving with precision and pride. If you’re energized by teamwork, hands‑on leadership, and seeing your work make a visible impact in the community, this is the role for you.

Duties

  • Lead daily field operations to ensure smooth job completion and adherence to Lakeshore Fiber’s high standards of quality, safety, and customer experience.
  • Motivate, coach, and support field technicians, fostering a culture of accountability, teamwork, and continuous improvement.
  • Conduct regular job-site visits to validate safety protocols, verify fiber installation quality, and maintain operational consistency.
  • Collaborate across departments — including logistics, engineering, and customer operations — to keep projects moving and resolve issues quickly.
  • Provide hands-on training to develop technician skillsets and ensure alignment with Lakeshore Fiber’s service and technical benchmarks.
  • Monitor equipment and inventory, ensuring crews are prepared, stocked, and operating efficiently.
  • Compile reports detailing field performance, project milestones, incidents, and operational insights for leadership review.

Qualifications

  • Proven experience in field operations, construction, telecommunications, or logistics leadership.
  • A natural leadership presence — you know how to inspire productivity, trust, and collaboration in a fast-paced environment.
  • Strong communication skills that keep crews informed and cross-functional teams aligned.
  • Ability to review operational data, identify bottlenecks, and implement process improvements.
  • Solid understanding of safety practices and compliance standards within field environments.
  • Flexibility to pivot with changing project needs and occasionally support operations outside standard work hours.
  • Familiarity with mobile workforce tools, scheduling platforms, or field service applications is a plus.

Why Lakeshore Fiber

Joining Lakeshore means joining a team dedicated to better service, better technology, and better communities. Here, your leadership directly shapes how Alpena connects, works, learns, and thrives. You’ll have the opportunity to make decisions, influence processes, and help build a fiber network designed to serve residents and businesses for generations.
