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.

The purpose of this role is to install and maintain billboards, including the installation of advertisements, maintenance of structures, and the construction upkeep of billboard cosmetics.

You will use power and manual tools to build extensions, cut brush, and maintain operation vehicles and equipment.
