For May`s #ConnectWithCooper, we`re excited to highlight Jacob Oiler! Throughout his time at Cooper Steel, Jacob has made a lasting impact on the Self-Perform Team. Thank you for all that you do, Jacob!
"I am an On-Site Safety Manager with the Self-Perform Group and I have been at Cooper Steel for nearly two years. My day-to-day responsibilities include overseeing the safety of our crews on-site while coordinating closely with project managers and general contractors to ensure safe and efficient operations.
I started my career at Cooper Steel as an intern within the On-Site Project Management Department. That experience has had a significant impact on my career and helped shape the way I approach safety within our organization today.
One of our core values is “Go All Out,” and that mindset is reflected in the work we do every day. In my role, building strong relationships with our crews and project teams is essential. If I can help improve a process, support our employees, or make the job site safer in any way, then I know I have done my job well.
Here, you are part of a family-oriented culture, and being a member of the Self-Perform Team is something I take great pride in. Representing the Cooper family on-site and being able to say we fabricated and erected a structure is incredibly rewarding. When a project is complete, there is a strong sense of accomplishment knowing the building will stand for many years and that you played a part in its success.
Looking ahead, I am excited to continue promoting the Self-Perform Team while growing in my current role and contributing to the continued success of Cooper Steel."
