International Field Safety and Health Manager

Harbert International, LLC, which began operations in 2000, has grown to be a well-diversified construction company working in a wide range of construction markets both in the U.S. and abroad.  The company is one of Alabama’s most influential commercial contractors, a leader in sustainable construction, and a top design-builder.
