Afternoon Shift Production Supervisor

Berminghammer Foundation Equipment was founded in 1897 by William Bermingham, who was succeeded by three further generations at the helm before the company was purchased by Soletanche Bachy Canada.

The company started by building the foundation of Canada’s infrastructure and has continued that role for 123 years. Always innovative, we brought the first diesel impact hammer to North America in the early 1950’s and started developing our own line of foundation specialty equipment in the late 1960’s. The Berminghammer trade name has become synonymous with leading edge technology around the world.

We currently develop and build custom equipment for the deep foundation construction market. With full product range of equipment including crane mounted lead systems, reverse circulation rock drills and diesel pile driving hammers, we work with top contractors on exciting projects around the world.

Our employees enjoy a safe and stable work environment and a competitive compensation package based on experience.
