A WORLD LEADER IN TESTING, INSPECTION & CERTIFICATION SERVICES

 

Bureau Veritas is seeking a Building Inspector to support municipal clients in the Kittanning, Pennsylvania and surrounding Western Pennsylvania region.

 

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys being out in the field, working independently, solving practical construction-related questions, and supporting local communities. This role supports residential and light commercial construction inspections, permit-related work, and code compliance services for contracted municipalities.

 

We are especially interested in candidates who already hold ICC certifications or related inspection credentials. However, we also welcome candidates with strong backgrounds in construction, inspections, contracting, carpentry, electrical, plumbing, mechanical, HVAC, construction supervision, municipal work, or the trades who are interested in building a long-term career in code inspection.

 

You do not need to check every box to be considered. If you understand job sites, communicate well with contractors and municipal clients, care about safe construction, and are willing to keep learning, we encourage you to apply.

 

About the Role

 

As a Building Inspector, you will work from a home office and spend much of your time in the field supporting municipalities, contractors, property owners, and project teams.

 

You will perform inspections on permitted construction projects and help ensure work is completed safely, accurately, and in accordance with applicable codes, approved plans, and local requirements. Depending on experience, certifications, and client needs, this position may also support Building Code Official responsibilities for contracted municipalities.

 

This role is a strong fit for someone who enjoys variety, independence, technical problem-solving, and respectful communication with people in the field. In communities around Kittanning and Western PA, relationships matter. The right person will be professional, reliable, practical, and comfortable working with contractors, homeowners, municipal staff, and local officials.

• Perform residential and light commercial building inspections for permitted projects
• Inspect structural and non-structural components, which may include building, plumbing, mechanical, electrical, accessibility, energy, fire protection, and related systems

• Document inspection findings clearly, accurately, and on time
• Communicate inspection results to contractors, property owners, municipal staff, and Bureau Veritas team members
