General Superintendent

Ref #: 202
Location: Utah Utah 84044
2026-07-14
Salary: 120,000 USD - 140,000 USD
Sector: Construction
Type: Permanent

Salt Lake City, UT | $120,000 – $140,000

Step into the command center of construction excellence where schedules are living organisms, job sites are orchestrated symphonies of steel and concrete, and leadership is measured in momentum, precision, and trust. We are seeking a General Superintendent who doesn’t just manage projects but conducts entire field operations like a master builder-commander, ensuring every phase moves with purpose, safety, and relentless execution.

This is not a desk-bound role. This is boots-on-the-ground leadership at altitude—where mountain views meet high-performance construction.

Your Mission

As the General Superintendent, you are the senior field authority across multiple projects, responsible for shaping outcomes from dirt work to ribbon cutting. You will unify field teams, subcontractors, and project leadership into one synchronized force that delivers exceptional builds across commercial, multifamily, or mixed-use developments.

You are the guardian of schedule, the enforcer of quality, and the culture-setter on every site you touch.

What You’ll Lead

  • Full oversight of multiple job sites or large, complex flagship projects
  • Daily coordination of superintendents, foremen, and trade partners
  • Master scheduling execution and real-time field sequencing adjustments
  • Enforcement of safety standards that are not just followed—but lived
  • Quality control systems that ensure “done” means done right the first time
  • Logistics planning for manpower, materials, equipment, and critical path flow
  • Strategic problem-solving when field conditions inevitably shift the game plan
  • Collaboration with Project Managers, Preconstruction, and Executive Leadership

What You Bring to the Table

  • 10+ years of progressive field leadership in commercial construction
  • Proven success managing large-scale or multi-project field operations
  • Deep understanding of construction sequencing, means and methods, and scheduling
  • A calm-but-commanding presence under pressure when timelines tighten and complexity rises
  • Strong leadership instincts—you build teams that respect you before they report to you
  • Ability to read a jobsite like a blueprint written in motion
  • A relentless commitment to safety, accountability, and craftsmanship

Why This Role Hits Different

Here, the General Superintendent isn’t just a title—it’s a field-level executive function. You’ll have the autonomy to lead, the backing of strong infrastructure, and the authority to shape how projects are delivered from the ground up.

You will be trusted to make decisions that move millions of dollars of work forward every week—and empowered to do it without micromanagement.

Compensation & Perks

  • $120,000 – $140,000 base salary
  • Competitive benefits package
  • Growth into senior executive field leadership opportunities
  • High-impact, high-visibility role across premier projects in the region

If you’re the kind of leader who sees a chaotic jobsite and instinctively starts aligning it like a chessboard already mid-game, this is your arena.
