Job description

Foresight is a Florida-based construction management firm with locations in Gainesville, Tampa, and Jacksonville. Since 2008, we’ve grown into one of the fastest-growing firms in the region, leading complex, high-impact projects across the Southeast and the Caribbean. We specialize in government, education, healthcare, industrial, institutional, and commercial work. Our teams are known for delivering with consistency, professionalism, and a strong commitment to operational excellence, earning trust and building long‑term relationships.

We’ve also been named one of Florida’s Top 100 Places to Work and recognized by Inc. as one of America’s fastest‑growing private companies because we invest in our people just as much as our projects.

At Foresight, we don’t just build projects — we build careers. That starts with a strong onboarding process, clear expectations, and real opportunities to grow. Whether you’re in the field or the office, you’ll be part of a team that values accountability, problem‑solving, and follow‑through.

Our name reflects how we operate: we plan ahead. We stay proactive, communicate early and often, and do the work up front to set our teams — and our projects — up for success.

Our Core Values guide everything we do:

• Ownership Mentality
• Spirit of Excellence

If you’re looking for a place where you can do meaningful work, be part of a strong team, and grow your career — we’d like to meet you. At Foresight, we’re building more than just structures. We’re building something that lasts.

About the Role

We’re seeking a confident and driven Superintendent who thrives in a fast‑paced, ever‑changing environment and takes ownership for results. This is a leadership role for someone who is comfortable making decisions under pressure, setting direction, and keeping projects moving forward with intensity and focus. You’ll balance today’s challenges with tomorrow’s goals — always asking “what’s next” while ensuring projects are delivered with quality, safety, and efficiency.

What You'll Do

• Own field leadership: Direct all daily jobsite activities with a structured, methodical approach.
• Prioritize safety: Lead with a safety‑first mentality by enforcing OSHA standards, conducting weekly safety meetings, and ensuring zero‑compromise compliance.
• Plan and execute: Develop, monitor, and enforce logistics, staging, and scheduling plans in partnership with the Project Manager.
• Maintain quality: Oversee inspections, testing, and QA/QC processes with rigorous attention to detail.
• Manage trade partners: Ensure subcontractor performance aligns with scope, drawings, and specifications; resolve issues promptly and decisively.
• Document thoroughly: Deliver clear daily reports, maintain progress logs, and track performance metrics with precision.
• Represent Foresight: Act as the on‑site point of contact for Owners, Architects, and trade partners with professionalism and authority.

Qualifications

• 7+ years of experience supervising large‑scale commercial construction projects (ground‑up and renovation).
• Proven ability to manage complex schedules, scopes, and logistics.
• Deep working knowledge of OSHA standards and construction safety best practices.
• Strong organizational skills with exceptional attention to detail and follow‑through.
• Calm, steady leadership style with a focus on accountability and process adherence.
• High school diploma or GED required; technical or construction management training preferred.

What Sets You Apart

• You’re bold, confident, and decisive, with the ability to make calls and stand behind them.
• You thrive under pressure, stay focused in unpredictable situations, and welcome challenges that require fast action.
• You’re future‑focused, entrepreneurial in your approach, and comfortable questioning the status quo to find better ways forward.
• You prefer autonomy and want the freedom to execute without unnecessary roadblocks or micromanagement.
• You communicate in a clear, direct, and factual way, and you value results over process for process’s sake.
• You’re motivated by driving projects to completion and seeing the tangible impact of your leadership.
• 100% employer‑paid health, dental, and vision insurance
• Life and disability insurance
• Company phone and vehicle allowance
• Paid time off
• 401(k) retirement savings program
• Weekly pay cycle
• Paid training, certifications, and career development
