Job description

Compensation :-$110,000 -130,000 annually + Incentives

At Caliber Novaa, our greatest asset is our people. We place a high value on investing not only in the growth of our company but also in the development and success of our team.

CN is a licensed commercial general contractor with experience delivering tenant improvements and ground-up projects. We are known for strong client partnerships, innovative solutions, and an unwavering commitment to safety and quality.

We believe our success comes from empowering field leaders to make decisions, solve problems, and build lasting relationships with clients and trade partners.

Unlike larger contractors where Superintendents may oversee a small piece of a project, you’ll have significant ownership, direct client interaction, and the ability to make an immediate impact on project success.
