About the role

FASTSIGNS is a well-known and respected global brand that helps businesses and organizations visually communicate. Virtually every business in every industry needs and uses signs, so you will get to see your work around town. You'll be in a fast-paced environment with a collaborative and supportive team. Every day is challenging and different, and you'll have the opportunity to continue to hone your skills by accessing a wide range of hands‑on, in‑person and online training programs. At FASTSIGNS, every day is unique and presents exciting opportunities, including new ways to use your talent and grow your skills. Are you a problem‑solver who can think on your feet? Do you like working with your hands and putting things together? Do you enjoy seeing your work as you move around the community? If so, then a career at FASTSIGNS® may be for you. As an Installer, you'll play an essential role in getting the finished sign or graphic in place so everyone can see it – in the ground, on a wall, on a vehicle or hanging from a ceiling. You'll use a variety of tools to assemble, erect and hang items, both inside and out. Fear of heights is not in your vocabulary.
