What this job involves

As a Superintendent, you are the site owner for the Build phase through Final Completion. You run the trades, the safety program, and the quality of work in place so the look‑ahead, the daily report, and the building are the same job.

What your day-to-day will look like

• Own mobilization with the Construction Manager: temps, fencing, offices, utilities, access, and Landlord compliance.
• Execute the site logistics plan: laydown, hoisting, deliveries, traffic, and adjacent‑tenant constraints.
• Confirm permits and conditions‑to‑start are closed before work begins.
• Stand up and lead the safety program: pre‑task planning, daily huddles, and toolbox talks.
• Run daily site operations, manpower tracking, and same‑day reporting visible to the Project Manager.
• Manage trade handoff QC; do not release a follow‑on trade onto unfinished or unaccepted work.
• Build and work the two‑week look‑ahead with the Construction Manager on the master schedule.
• Pull permit inspections, testing, and mockups forward; coordinate AHJ and special inspectors.
• Execute commissioning and QC against the established plan; verify installed quantities that feed the pay application.
• Support RFIs and submittals from the field using only the approved‑for‑construction set.
• Drive the punchlist to zero with the Construction Manager, walk final AHJ inspections and the Final Certificate of Occupancy, and verify attic stock before closeout.

Required qualifications

• 7+ years of commercial construction field supervision on occupied or technically constrained sites.
• Proven ownership of daily reports, look‑aheads, trade handoff QC, and AHJ inspection sequencing.
• Demonstrated safety leadership: pre‑task, huddles, toolbox talks, and incident response without waiting for the office.
• Ability to read construction documents, approved submittals, and a CPM look‑ahead and run the site from them.
• Clear, same‑day written communication.
• OSHA 30 certification; valid driver's license and ability to be on site daily.

Preferred qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Engineering, or related field, or equivalent field experience.
• PMP or equivalent project management certification.
• First Aid/CPR certification.
• Experience with e‑Builder or equivalent PMIS for daily reports, photos, and punch.
• Mission‑critical, landlord‑controlled, or client‑occupied environment experience.
• Commissioning and TCO/Certificate of Occupancy close experience.
• Trade background before supervision.
