Lead the Field. Own the Build. Set the Standard.

We’re looking for a Senior Superintendent who knows construction from the ground up and has the leadership, organization, and field expertise to take major projects from mobilization through successful completion. This is a high-impact opportunity for a seasoned construction professional who can command a jobsite, coordinate multiple moving parts, and keep quality, schedule, safety, and accountability firmly on track.

The ideal candidate is more than someone who can read plans and run a schedule. You’re a field leader, problem solver, communicator, and builder who understands that successful projects are built by strong teams, disciplined execution, and relentless attention to detail.

What You’ll Own

  • Lead all day-to-day field operations from project startup through final completion and closeout.
  • Establish and maintain project schedules, sequencing, manpower requirements, and production goals.
  • Direct and coordinate subcontractors, vendors, field staff, and trade partners.
  • Maintain a safe, organized, productive, and professional jobsite.
  • Monitor construction progress and proactively identify scheduling, material, manpower, and coordination issues.
  • Partner closely with Project Managers and project leadership to keep budgets, schedules, and commitments aligned.
  • Review plans, specifications, submittals, RFIs, shop drawings, and project documents for field coordination.
  • Conduct regular jobsite meetings and coordinate upcoming activities with project teams and subcontractors.
  • Inspect completed and ongoing work to ensure quality standards and project specifications are being met.
  • Identify potential conflicts before they become expensive problems.
  • Manage inspections, testing, punch lists, turnover, and project closeout.
  • Maintain accurate daily reports, documentation, schedules, and field records.
  • Communicate clearly with ownership, clients, architects, engineers, subcontractors, and internal leadership.
  • Mentor and develop field personnel while creating a culture of accountability and teamwork.
  • Enforce project safety requirements and ensure crews and subcontractors follow established safety procedures.
  • Keep the job moving when challenges arise because construction rarely sends an invitation before changing the plan.

What We’re Looking For

  • 8+ years of construction experience, with significant experience leading projects in a Superintendent capacity.
  • Proven ability to manage complex construction projects and multiple subcontractor teams.
  • Strong understanding of construction means, methods, sequencing, scheduling, and quality control.
  • Ability to read and interpret architectural, structural, MEP, civil, and project documents.
  • Strong knowledge of OSHA requirements and jobsite safety practices.
  • Experience with construction scheduling and project management software such as Procore, Primavera P6, Bluebeam, or similar platforms.
  • Excellent communication, leadership, organization, and problem-solving skills.
  • Ability to anticipate problems, make informed decisions, and keep projects moving forward.
  • A hands-on leadership style with the confidence to hold teams and trade partners accountable.
  • Strong understanding of project documentation, inspections, closeout procedures, and quality expectations.
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment while managing multiple priorities without losing sight of the details.

The Opportunity

This is a chance to step into a high-visibility Senior Superintendent position where your experience matters and your leadership will have a direct impact on project success. We’re looking for someone who takes pride in the work, understands the responsibility that comes with leading a jobsite, and knows how to turn drawings, schedules, people, and materials into a finished project.

If you’re the Superintendent who can walk onto a complicated jobsite, see what needs to happen next, get the right people moving, and keep everyone focused on the finish line, this opportunity deserves a serious look.
