Job description

Nationally Renowned | Top 5% Construction Management & Design-Build Firm

Major Commercial Construction | Complex Projects | $800MM+ Project Opportunities

Note:

This is an opportunity for an ambitious Assistant Superintendent looking to advance their career with one of the nation's premier construction organizations.

Our client offers the opportunity to work alongside accomplished construction leadership on high-profile, career-defining projects, with a clear path toward increased responsibility and advancement.

Your career progression is driven by your performance, ambition, and capabilities — not arbitrary waiting periods.

The Client

We have been retained directly by the South-Central Regional Executive Vice President of this nationally recognized Construction Management and Design-Build organization.

We have known this executive for nearly 10 years and have firsthand insight into the caliber of leadership and the long-term opportunity being built within their thriving North Texas / South-Central U.S. business unit.

Requirements / Preferences:

Our client is seeking an Assistant Superintendent who brings a strong foundation in commercial construction field operations and the ambition to continue developing into a leadership role.

• Experience supporting field operations on commercial construction projects.
• Exposure to ground-up construction, large-scale developments, or technically complex projects preferred.
• Strong understanding of subcontractor coordination, scheduling, safety, quality, and day-to-day field execution.
• Willingness to learn from experienced leadership while taking ownership of increasing responsibilities.
• Demonstrated work ethic, initiative, accountability, and long-term career ambition.

About This Company

Our client is a nationally renowned Construction Management and Design-Build firm ranked among the Top 5% in the United States.

With a thriving North Texas and South-Central U.S. operation, this organization is strategically expanding its footprint while executing some of the industry's most substantial and technically challenging projects.

Projects exceeding $800MM are part of the caliber of work this organization is pursuing and delivering.

For an Assistant Superintendent, this means exposure to extraordinary projects, seasoned construction professionals, and an organization with the resources and leadership to support meaningful long-term career development.

This is not simply an opportunity to join another general contractor.

It is an opportunity to build your career on a national platform where performance creates opportunity.

One of the most compelling differentiators of this organization is its approach to professional advancement.

There are no arbitrary waiting periods for promotion.

Individuals who demonstrate the ability, work ethic, and leadership qualities necessary to advance are given opportunities to do so.

For an Assistant Superintendent, this creates a legitimate runway toward Superintendent, Senior Superintendent, and broader field leadership opportunities over time.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Top 5% National Construction Firm: Join an organization recognized among the upper echelon of U.S. construction companies.
• Career-Defining Projects: Participate in major, complex construction programs, including opportunities involving projects exceeding $800MM.
• Serious Backlog: Substantial awarded work, rather than a pipeline dependent solely on speculative pursuits.
• Career Advancement: Performance-driven progression without arbitrary promotional timelines.
• Executive Leadership: Work within a business unit led by an established executive committed to developing high-performing construction professionals.
• Professional Visibility: Gain experience on high-profile projects that strengthen your long-term professional credentials.
• Long-Term Runway: Join a growing regional operation backed by the resources and capabilities of a national construction platform.
