ABOUT THE ROLE

Our Client is seeking a Superintendent responsible for overseeing and coordinating all field operations on construction projects from inception to owner acceptance. This safety-sensitive role ensures the implementation and maintenance of project-specific safety plans, manages site setup—including field office, signage, permits, and temporary facilities—and coordinates with consultants, subcontractors, and suppliers to ensure timely, on-budget, and high-quality project delivery.
