About the Role

This entry-level, full-time position offers a unique opportunity to see a different part of your city every day from a bird's-eye view. As part of the Operations crew at our Knoxville, Tennessee office, you will help bring outdoor advertising campaigns to life for brands in Knoxville and the surrounding areas. You will experience the city from above while building and maintaining the structures that keep communities informed.

The role is action-packed and involves installing and maintaining billboards, including the installation of advertisements, maintenance of structures, and construction upkeep of billboard cosmetics. You will work alongside the Operations team to handle large vinyl advertisements, ensuring they are properly assembled to the billboard structure. The tallest billboard structure in the company is around 200 feet, so comfort with heights is a must.

Maintenance duties include construction work such as tightening bolts, painting steel structures, repairing trim, changing light bulbs, and conducting storm damage repairs. While you will bring your experience with power and manual tools, the company provides all necessary equipment. This position most often works alone, requiring you to manage your work schedule effectively while prioritizing the safety of yourself and others.
