Descrizione del lavoro

Florida heavy civil contractor is looking for a Project Superintendent to take a strong field leadership seat on FDOT bridge and heavy highway work in the Saint Petersburg / Tampa Bay market.

This is a good fit for someone who has already been around real bridge work — not just general sitework or roadway support — and knows how to coordinate foremen, subcontractors, inspectors, engineers, owners, and field crews without losing control of production.

The company needs a superintendent who can run work in the field, protect schedule, manage production, communicate clearly, and keep crews moving safely and efficiently on FDOT infrastructure work.

Why This Role Is Worth a Conversation

This opportunity offers:

• A direct-hire role with an established Florida heavy civil contractor
• FDOT bridge / heavy highway work in the Tampa Bay market
• A field leadership role with real responsibility over crews, subs, schedule, production, and execution
• Competitive base compensation with project bonus opportunity
• Full benefits
• Relocation consideration for the right candidate
• A confidential process from first conversation through final steps

This is not a generic superintendent seat. The company is looking for someone who understands bridge construction, FDOT expectations, jobsite coordination, and the day‑to‑day pressure of keeping heavy civil work moving.

What You’ll Be Leading

The Project Superintendent will manage and coordinate field operations on FDOT heavy/highway/bridge projects, with responsibility for production, schedule, subcontractors, safety, client coordination, and field execution.

Key responsibilities include:

• Manage and schedule foremen, field crews, and subcontractors
• Lead daily field execution across bridge / heavy highway construction activities
• Establish production goals and hold project teams accountable to them
• Coordinate with project management, engineers, inspectors, suppliers, and owners
• Maintain positive working relationships with clients, consultants, inspectors, and public stakeholders
• Review project performance and recommend corrective action when schedule, cost, or production issues arise
• Manage construction activities in accordance with contract documents, drawings, specifications, safety requirements, and environmental regulations
• Assist estimators and engineers with quantities, production tracking, and field input
• Coach, supervise, and train foremen and field employees
• Support On-the-Job Training requirements
• Implement company policies and procedures in the field

What We’re Looking For

The ideal candidate has hands‑on FDOT heavy/highway/bridge experience and can lead field teams without needing to be taught the basics of bridge construction or FDOT coordination.

Required background:

• 5–10+ years of bridge experience in heavy/highway/bridge construction
• Working knowledge of FDOT contracts, specifications, reports, and field expectations
• Ability to manage foremen, subcontractors, field crews, inspectors, and project stakeholders
• Strong communication skills — verbal and written
• Ability to think independently, solve problems, and keep work moving
• OSHA Competent Person certification
• Excellent driving record

Preferred experience:

• Cast‑in‑place bridge experience
• Segmental bridge experience
• Post‑tensioned bridge experience
• OSHA 30
• Spanish bilingual ability
• Tampa Bay / Florida FDOT project experience
