Job description

Superintendent – Commercial Interiors | NYC General Contractor | Full-Time

A well-established NYC General Contractor — nearly 40 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 high-profile interior builds across commercial, retail, hospitality, healthcare, and institutional sectors, with some ground-up work as well, though interiors remain the core focus. They're known in the market for precision delivery and long-term repeat client relationships. This is a 100+ person GC/CM firm with a steady, primarily interior-focused pipeline.

The core of the work is fast-moving, design-led interior construction — the kind of project where finish quality and sequencing actually matter, and where you'll see your work featured rather than buried under a facade.

THE PROJECTS YOU'LL RUN

• Corporate office fit-outs and full-floor renovations for name-brand tenants
• Retail flagship builds to exacting design and millwork standards
• Hospitality projects - restaurants, bars, and venues with tight sequencing and high finish demands
• Healthcare and institutional interiors requiring precision coordination
• Renovation and base-build work where interior coordination makes or breaks the schedule

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• Experience running commercial interior fit-outs, tenant improvements, or high-spec renovations as a Superintendent
• Background with a GC, construction manager, or developer-side construction team in NYC
• Comfort with fast-track sequencing, MEP coordination, and finish-intensive delivery
• Working knowledge of NYC DOB requirements and inspections (DOB Superintendent License a plus, not a dealbreaker - we'll support the right candidate through it if needed)
• A field leader trades want to work for - someone who sets the standard and keeps a job moving without cutting corners

WHAT THE ROLE LOOKS LIKE

• Own field operations from mobilization through final turnover
• Drive sequencing, logistics, safety, and quality on fast-moving interior projects
• Coordinate subcontractors, trades, vendors, and site personnel day to day
• Manage MEP rough-in, finishes, and commissioning against tight schedules
• Work directly with PMs, design teams, clients, and building management - you'll never be out of the loop
• Handle permits and DOB compliance without losing momentum
• Lead punch list, closeout, and handover to a consistently high standard

WHY THIS ROLE STANDS OUT

• Nearly 40 years in NYC, family-run, and still growing - real stability in an industry that doesn't always offer it
• Broad, steady pipeline across office, retail, hospitality, healthcare - with some ground-up work too - so there's no downtime between projects
• Genuine on-site autonomy - this contractor trusts its Supers to run their jobs
• A collaborative project team model (Account Exec, Estimator, PM, Assistant PM, and Super) so you're never carrying a job alone
• A real path into Senior Superintendent or Project Leadership as the company grows
