We are looking for a strong Superintendent who can take ownership of the field, control the jobsite, coordinate subcontractors, and drive projects from mobilization through closeout.

This is not a role for someone who just watches the work happen. We need someone who can lead the field, understand the drawings, stay ahead of issues, and keep the job moving.

Imperium is growing, and we are looking for field leaders who want real responsibility, ownership in the field, and the opportunity to grow into senior superintendent and field leadership roles as the company scales.

• Maintain daily logs, photos, manpower tracking, and site documentation in Procore
• Coordinate closely with the Project Manager on schedule, procurement, RFIs, submittals, and inspections
• Maintain a clean, organized, safe, and controlled jobsite
• Enforce safety requirements and conduct toolbox talks
• Manage inspections and help drive timely sign-offs and closeout

• Strong ability to lead subcontractors and control daily production
• Ability to read and interpret construction drawings

• Comfortable working in occupied buildings, tight spaces, and limited staging conditions
• Familiarity with DOB inspections, permits, and closeout requirements
• Ability to manage union and non-union subcontractors
• Procore experience required
• Microsoft Project experience is a plus
• Active OSHA 62-Hour SST certification required

Preferred

• Carpentry or hands-on trade background
• Experience with high-end retail, fitness, hospitality, or flagship interior projects
• Experience with fast-track projects
• Competitive salary based on experience
• 401(k) with company match
• Paid time off

• Growth opportunity as the company continues to scale
• Direct access to leadership and decision-making
