Job description

Hauppauge, NY (Long Island / NYC coverage) | On-Site | Competitive Salary + Full Benefits

A well-established Long Island/Tri-State General Contractor — 50 years in business, family-run, and still growing — is looking for a Superintendent to take full field ownership of their next wave of projects. Their portfolio spans industrial, multifamily, self-storage, education, healthcare, and retail/hospitality work, with a strong reputation for precision delivery and long-standing repeat client relationships. This is a diversified, mid-size CM/GC firm with a steady, varied pipeline — you won't be running the same building type twice in a row.

The core of the work is ground-up and renovation construction across multiple sectors — the kind of environment where a Superintendent who can adapt across project types, rather than specialize narrowly, genuinely stands out.

THE PROJECTS YOU'LL RUN

• Industrial and manufacturing facilities — warehouses, distribution, and specialized production spaces
• Corporate and commercial office builds
• Educational facilities, often on active or occupied campuses
• Healthcare and life sciences projects
• Retail and hospitality builds
• Multifamily and residential developments, including affordable and market-rate housing

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• Proven experience as a Senior Construction Superintendent on commercial, industrial, or institutional projects
• Background with a GC, construction manager, or developer-side construction team
• In-depth understanding of construction procedures, codes, and quality/safety standards
• Working knowledge of AutoDesk Build a plus; strong general Microsoft Office skills expected
• OSHA trained, with a genuine commitment to a proactive safety culture
• A field leader who runs a disciplined jobsite while staying approachable to trades, subs, and the project team

WHAT THE ROLE LOOKS LIKE

• Own field operations from mobilization through final turnover
• Maintain daily jobsite logs and produce 3-week look-aheads
• Run weekly foreman meetings and schedule subcontractors/vendors to hold the project timeline
• Perform quality control, inspecting work against contract documents and specifications
• Collaborate directly with engineers, architects, subcontractors, and vendors to keep the project moving
• Work alongside the Sr. Project Manager on monthly requisition review
• Own site access control and day-to-day site management
• Communicate and reinforce a genuine safety-first culture, including an Incident and Injury Free (IIF) program

WHY THIS ROLE STANDS OUT

• 50 years in business, family-run, and still growing — real stability in an industry that doesn't always offer it
• A genuinely diverse pipeline — industrial, multifamily, self-storage, education, healthcare, retail — so there's no downtime and no monotony
• A company built on stated values — transparency, integrity, focus, tenacity, reliability — that consistently shows up in how projects are run
• Full benefits package: health, dental, vision, life insurance, 401(k), and professional development support
• Genuine on-site autonomy — this contractor trusts its Superintendents to run their jobs
