A growing US construction business is seeking a General Superintendent to lead field execution on major, complex projects.

This is a senior role for someone who can run a project from mobilization through final turnover across all trades - leading the field team, coordinating subcontractors, driving schedule and quality, and resolving issues before they impact delivery.

Projects span mission critical, healthcare, aviation/airport and other complex construction environments. Experience across multiple sectors is valuable; the strongest candidates will bring genuine breadth rather than a narrowly defined background.

The Role

• Own field execution from project start through completion and turnover.


• Lead civil, structural, architectural, MEP and specialty scopes.


• Direct Superintendents, Assistant Superintendents, subcontractors and trade partners.


• Establish sequencing, logistics, manpower planning and short/long-term schedules.


• Drive safety, quality, productivity and schedule performance.


• Identify and resolve field issues before they become project-level problems.


• Coordinate closely with Project Management, owners, consultants and senior leadership.


• Lead inspections, commissioning, punch, closeout and turnover.

What We're Looking For

• Proven ability to lead major projects end-to-end across all trades.


• Strong command of field operations, sequencing, logistics and schedule.


• Experience leading large field teams and complex subcontractor environments.


• Ability to make decisions, solve problems and maintain accountability without constant escalation.


• Experience in mission critical, healthcare, aviation/airport or similarly complex construction.


• A broad project background rather than experience limited to one vertical.


• Strong owner, consultant and trade-partner communication.


• Willingness to work 100% on site, Monday–Friday, with home time Fridays.


• Reasonable access to a major commercial airport.


• Able to work on projects in Texas or Virginia. Candidates based in California or New York are not being considered.

The Opportunity

This is a General Superintendent / Lead Superintendent-level opportunity for someone trusted to take ownership of complex project execution.

Base salary can go above $250,000 for a candidate who brings the required project scale, trade breadth and field leadership.
