Working closely with the Project Manager, the Superintendent runs the construction phase — managing schedule, labor, subcontractors, materials, safety, and quality — so that projects are delivered on time, on budget, to specification, and safely. This role is where the schedule and the budget are either protected or lost. The Superintendent is the daily point of accountability on site: coordinating trades, enforcing safety and quality standards, documenting conditions and changes, and keeping the Project Manager and client informed with accurate, timely information. Company Overview Kapella Group is the construction arm of Global Construction, LLC, delivering adaptive reuse, multifamily, senior living, hospitality, and commercial projects across Colorado, Florida, Arizona, and Wyoming. We build with a bias toward disciplined execution, thorough documentation, and long-term client relationships and our superintendents are central to all three.

Communication is Vital — Open dialogue, active listening, and clear articulation keep the field, the office, and the client aligned. Innovation Through Collaboration — We embrace diverse perspectives and leverage teamwork to drive continuous improvement. Passion Fuels Purpose — Genuine passion breeds enthusiasm, dedication, and excellence. Going the Extra Mile — We surpass expectations and consistently exceed standards to make a lasting impact. Key Responsibilities 1. Schedule & Scope Management Lead the construction phase; ensure all activity aligns with the contract schedule and milestones. Produce and distribute the 3-week look-ahead; lead weekly scheduling meetings with PMs and subcontractors. Monitor the critical path; flag and mitigate risks early and develop recovery plans for delays. Document delay causes, durations, and impacts contemporaneously — this is how schedule entitlement is protected. Coordinate with the Project Manager to manage scope, change orders, and RFIs, avoiding scope creep. Coordinate permits and inspections so approvals never drive delay. 2. Labor, Subcontractor & Resource Management Assign and manage in-house crews and subcontractors to meet milestones within budget. Monitor subcontractor compliance with schedule, scope, safety, and quality standards. Lead daily and weekly production meetings to maintain execution focus. Track productivity against targets; report variances with recommended corrective action. 3. Procurement & Material Oversight Oversee material take-offs, purchase orders, and procurement aligned to the schedule. Maintain a procurement log tied to milestones; identify and escalate long-lead risks early. Confirm timely, accurate deliveries; organize secure staging; verify material quality and compliance. Adjust procurement following change orders and RFIs; control and minimize waste. 4. Quality Control Enforce quality standards and specification compliance across all trades. Conduct routine QC inspections and document results with photos in the system of record. Drive punch lists to zero deficiencies before client sign-off. Verify work meets code, manufacturer requirements, and warranty conditions. 5. Safety & Compliance Lead daily/weekly toolbox talks and safety meetings; conduct JSA-based training. Enforce site safety regulations and address hazards proactively; maintain full safety records. Conduct routine site inspections for compliance with applicable laws and regulations. 6. Client Communication & Documentation Maintain professional client communication; support OAC meetings and site visits. Provide accurate weekly progress reporting to the Project Manager and stakeholders. Maintain complete project documentation — daily reports, change orders, RFIs, photos, and correspondence. Keep project management and CRM systems current; submit time, expense, and mileage reporting on schedule. Deliver a complete closeout and turnover package. 7. Team Development Lead the on-site team in a way that reflects company values. Coach and mentor junior staff and apprentices on site procedures and standards.
