A CONCRETE PUMP OPERATOR is a skilled machine operator typically working on construction job sites. As opposed to a crane operator, who may go to one job site for six months or a year, a Pump Operator typically goes from one to three different job sites per day. Pump operators come in all sizes and shapes; there is no one type of operator. The best ones are calm and thoughtful as opposed to nervous and excitable. They can communicate well with others and like to work outdoors and have an infinite variety in their workdays. They are easy to get along with, and conscious of the effects their actions have on other workers. Common sense is more important than book learning, and a positive attitude carries a lot of weight. Duties include controlling the operation of the pump and the output of concrete by directing the hose.
