Commercial Construction Superintendent

Lead the Site. Drive the Schedule. Deliver the Project.

North Georgia Civil Inc., also known as NGC General Contractors, is a growing commercial and federal contractor headquartered in Danielsville, GA. The company builds and remodels federal and commercial facilities across the United States, with much of its work involving remodels inside occupied, operating buildings.

NGC is seeking an experienced Commercial Construction Superintendent to serve as the company's senior representative on site and take ownership of day-to-day project execution. The Superintendent is responsible for safety, production, quality, documentation, subcontractor coordination, and maintaining a professional relationship with the facility and its authorized representatives.

The ideal candidate is a strong field leader who understands commercial construction sequencing, can coordinate and hold multiple subcontractors accountable, communicates clearly and factually, recognizes potential problems early, and takes pride in delivering safe, organized, high-quality work.

Schedule expectation: The Superintendent must be on site by 7:00 AM, Monday through Friday, and must be available whenever subcontractors are working, including early starts, nights, and weekends when project phasing requires it.

Key Responsibilities

• Have the authority to stop unsafe work when necessary.

• Lead incident response in accordance with the NGC Safety Response Plan.

Production and Schedule

• Manage day-to-day construction activities onsite from mobilization through project completion.
• Sequence subcontractors within their contracted scope and hold each subcontractor accountable for committed daily production and manpower.
• Walk the full site hourly to monitor progress, coordination, safety, quality, and site conditions.
• Maintain a 3-week look-ahead schedule, updating it weekly and providing it to the Project Manager.
• Identify and report delays, constraints, and subcontractor shortfalls on the day they occur.
• Coordinate deliveries, inspections, access, and field activities to keep the project moving according to the project schedule.

Quality and Field Execution

• Verify work in place against the current drawings and specifications in Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) before an inspector or client reviews the work.
• Ensure that nothing is installed from an unapproved submittal.

• Draft RFIs for the Project Manager as needed.
• Inspect and log deliveries.

• Pre-walk every client milestone walk and drive subcontractors through punch-list and closeout requirements.
• Verify subcontractor work before completion and ensure deficiencies are addressed promptly.

Documentation and Communication

• Complete the daily report in ACC, and in the client's required system when applicable, before leaving the site.
• Daily reports should accurately document manpower by trade, work performed, deliveries, inspections, visitors, and delays.
• Upload approximately 50-100 site photographs per day to ACC as required for project documentation.
• Track time-and-materials labor, equipment, and materials daily and obtain the client's required daily signature.
• Confirm important project matters through same-day written communication with the Project Manager and appropriate project team members.
• Maintain clear, factual, professional documentation that accurately records field conditions and project events.
• Maintain organized project documentation using ACC, Smartsheet, Gmail, Slack, Google Drive, and other company or client systems as required.

Occupied Facilities and Authority

• Maintain construction activities without impeding the owner's ongoing operations.
• Coordinate disruptions, outages, and access impacts in advance through the Project Manager and the owner's authorized representative.
• Ensure workers do not handle owner equipment or materials and do not photograph facility operations or staff.
• Take direction from the owner's authorized representative and maintain appropriate communication through established project channels.
• Lead the weekly coordination meeting and provide the required written coordination report in the PM-approved format.
• Any matter that changes cost, scope, or time must go through the Project Manager, including changes to a subcontractor's scope.
• Acknowledge, document, and communicate issues promptly rather than independently committing the company to changes.
• Do not direct a subcontractor's means and methods.
• Do not release project documents to owner personnel without Project Manager clearance.
