ParkerBeth Search Partners is recruiting a Regional Superintendent/Project Manager for a long-established Southern California contractor specializing in HOA, multifamily, commercial painting, and reconstruction.

This is a hands-on regional Superintendent role for someone who can manage multiple active projects, strengthen field accountability, and build trust with HOA boards, property managers, consultants, and owners. The right person will combine strong project-management discipline with practical field judgment and the ability to improve regional performance.

The company has operated since 1974 and is modernizing its operational structure. Leadership is investing in stronger systems, clearer accountability, and experienced operators who can help scale the business without sacrificing service quality or profitability.

WHY THIS ROLE STANDS OUT
• Own project execution across the San Diego region
• Established contractor with more than 50 years in business
• Approximately $2.5 million in active backlog and growing
• High visibility with executive and production leadership
• Clear path toward broader operations leadership
• Strong project bonus tied to performance and profitability
• Self-performing crews provide stronger control of quality and schedule

• Review contracts, scopes, budgets, schedules, and project requirements
• Build and maintain schedules, manpower plans, phasing, and site logistics
• Coordinate estimating turnover into production
• Conduct regular site visits and hold crews accountable
• Serve as a primary client contact throughout the project lifecycle
• Track labor performance, project cost, billing, and gross margin
• Identify and secure change orders before added work proceeds
• Resolve schedule, quality, and client issues quickly
• Manage punch lists, final inspections, warranty items, and closeout
• Strengthen regional consistency, communication, and accountability


WHAT YOU BRING
• Seven or more years of superintendent/PM experience
• Painting, reconstruction, restoration, or specialty-trade background
• HOA, multifamily, or occupied-property project experience
• Strong scheduling, manpower-planning, and field-leadership skills
• Proven financial ownership of project cost and gross margin
• Experience managing multiple active projects or a regional portfolio
• Strong client communication with boards and property managers
• Proven change-order management and documentation
• Bilingual English/Spanish strongly preferred
• Valid driver's license and regular San Diego County travel availability


COMPENSATION & BENEFITS
• Base salary: $125,000-$150,000, depending on experience
• Performance bonus target of approximately 5%
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• Paid time off and paid holidays
• 401(k), subject to company plan
• Vehicle allowance and mileage reimbursement


This role is best suited for a senior Project Manager who wants ownership of a region, direct access to leadership, and the opportunity to improve how projects are planned, managed, and delivered.
