Traveling Industrial Superintendent

Miranda Construction

Industrial Superintendent

Miranda Construction | Field Leadership | Full-Time

Note: Candidates must have industrial construction field experience. Experience limited to commercial or residential general contracting without industrial field supervision will not qualify. A minimum of 3 years as a Superintendent or Lead Foreman managing multiple subcontractors required for consideration. We appreciate your respect for these qualifications. This is a traveling position requiring extended regional travel and temporary assignment to project locations throughout the United States. Candidates must be comfortable working away from home for extended periods based on project needs.

At Miranda Construction, our core values are the foundation of who we are. Wisdom, creativity, community, joy, diversity, and commitment influence how we make decisions, support one another, and build lasting relationships. These values are carried out through every part of our company and reflect what it means to build great projects while also building great people. We are seeking an experienced Industrial Superintendent to join our team — a field leader who thrives on tight coordination, holds high standards, and can drive a project from groundbreaking to turnover with confidence and professionalism.

Role Purpose

The Industrial Superintendent serves as the on-site leader and core value champion for Miranda Construction projects across the region. You will be responsible for on-site coordination across all phases of construction — directing subcontractors, managing schedules, enforcing quality standards, and ensuring every project is completed safely, on time, and in full compliance with plans and specifications regardless of location. This is a hands-on leadership role requiring flexibility, adaptability, and the ability to establish immediate control and organization on an active industrial jobsite. You will be the single point of accountability in the field, while directly representing Miranda Construction maintaining professionalism, accountability, and strong communication skills while working remotely from the corporate office.

Why You'll Thrive at Miranda Construction
  • Accountability and Ownership: You'll have real authority in the field and be trusted to lead — not just report.
  • Strong Subcontractor Relationships: We treat our subs as partners. You'll manage relationships built on mutual respect, clear communication, and fair expectations.
  • Structured Support: You won't be left guessing. Our project teams provide the plans, resources, and administrative backbone you need to execute without friction.
  • Competitive Compensation Package: Salary, lodging/per diem support, bonus, company vehicle, fuel card, health/dental/vision, 401k, PTO, and paid holidays.
  • Career Growth: We invest in field leaders who produce results and want to grow within the organization.
Essential Responsibilities

Field Coordination & Schedule Execution

  • Schedule subcontractors, consultants, and vendors in a critical path sequence to ensure timely project completion.
  • Walk all project areas daily to monitor work progress and support forward planning.
  • Preside over weekly subcontractor coordination meetings to align the work and address issues proactively.
  • Identify conflicts in construction progress and communicate them to the project team for timely resolution.

Travel & Remote Project Management

  • Travel to assigned project locations throughout the region as required.
  • Temporarily relocate near project sites for project durations as necessary.
  • Maintain strong communication with corporate operations and project management teams while working remotely.
  • Adapt quickly to new project teams, jurisdictions, owners, and site conditions.
  • Manage projects with limited direct supervision while maintaining Miranda Construction standards.

Quality Control & Compliance

  • Perform ongoing quality control inspections and enforce strict adherence to plans, specifications, and local codes.
  • Issue notices of non-compliance to subcontractors for deficient work, scheduling failures, or safety violations.
  • Ensure all identified deficiencies are corrected by the responsible subcontractor prior to proceeding.
  • Coordinate required inspections with local jurisdictions and applicable authorities.
  • Perform job progress punch lists and completion walkthroughs with thoroughness and accountability.

Subcontractor Management & Communication

  • Ensure each subcontractor is fully executing and complying with their contracted scope of work.
  • Identify subcontractor non-compliance with safety, health, and environmental quality standards.
  • Communicate with the project team regarding ASIs, RFIs, and material submittals.
  • Preside at pre-construction meetings with each subcontractor to align expectations before work begins.

Safety & Site Management

  • Monitor and enforce Miranda Construction safety standards and OSHA compliance at all times.
  • Conduct toolbox talks, safety meetings, subcontractor coordination meetings, and jobsite audits regularly.
  • Ensure the job site is consistently kept clean, organized, and secure.
  • Open the job site at the start of each day; secure it at the end of the day.
  • Report and address potentially unsafe conditions immediately.

Documentation & Reporting

  • Maintain a daily report of all site activities, workforce levels, and notable events.
  • Gather and maintain project material submittals and records of approvals at the job site.
  • Communicate drawing and specification conflicts or deviations to the project team prior to execution.
Secondary Responsibilities
  • Assist the Project Manager with schedule updates and planning.
  • Participate in preconstruction planning meetings.
  • Identify scope of work outside of subcontracted agreements and escalate appropriately.
Qualifications

Required Experience & Education

  • Minimum 3 years of verifiable Superintendent or Lead Foreman experience on industrial construction projects.
  • Proven experience managing multiple subcontractors and complex industrial jobsite sequencing.
  • Thorough knowledge of construction trades and sequencing.
  • Willingness and ability to travel extensively for projects.
  • Experience working on remote or out-of-town assignments preferred.
  • Strong understanding of industrial construction means, methods, and safety requirements.
  • Proficiency with Procore, Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, Outlook), and Microsoft Project.
  • Ability to read and interpret blueprints, specifications, safety rules, and procedure manuals.
  • Computer literate; proficiency with digital communication tools and job site documentation platforms.

Preferred Experience

  • Industrial retrofit and ground-up construction.
  • Multi-site or multi-phase project management experience.

Knowledge, Skills & Abilities

  • Leadership: Ability to direct and resolve issues among 10+ subcontractors and vendors with authority and professionalism.
  • Quality Identification: Proven ability to identify deficient work and drive resolution quickly.
  • Communication: Clear and effective oral and written communication across all project stakeholders.
  • Blueprint Reading: Confident interpretation of construction documents, drawings, and specifications.
  • Planning & Organizing: Strong ability to prioritize, schedule, and manage competing demands across a dynamic job site.
  • Interpersonal Skills: Conflict resolution, active listening, and team-building across diverse workforces.
  • Adaptability: Comfort managing change, delays, and unexpected site conditions without losing momentum.
  • Professionalism: Consistent, composed approach to pressure; leads by example at all times.
Physical Demands & Work Environment

This role requires full engagement in an active construction site environment — both indoors and outdoors. Candidates must be comfortable with the following:

  • Regular standing, walking, climbing, balancing, stooping, kneeling, and crawling.
  • Lifting and/or moving up to 75 lbs occasionally.
  • Work indoors and outdoors in varying weather conditions.
  • Travel to assigned job sites as required by vehicle or by air.
  • Work overtime, weekends, or adjusted schedules as project demands require.
  • Stay overnight and work extended periods away from home as required by project assignments.

Miranda Construction offers a highly competitive compensation and benefits package for the right candidate:

  • Competitive Salary
  • Discretionary Bonus Program
  • Travel Allowance / Per Diem
