  • Develop relationships with owners, designers, subcontractors, and other trade partners.

  • Ensure site work is completed according to project plans and specifications.

What You Bring

  • Bachelor's degree in construction management, construction engineering, or a related field.

  • Proven experience as a construction project superintendent; 3-5 years minimum.

  • Exceptional attention to detail.

  • Passion for providing superior customer service and exceeding expectations.

  • Exceptional problem-solving and decision-making skills.

  • Outstanding communication skills.

Unpleasant or potentially harmful fumes may occasionally be present (proper PPE will be provided). The temperature of the work environment is variable based on location and season. Frequent travel is required. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions.
