Position Overview

The Site Supervisor is a cornerstone of field operations, the person who ensures that every project is executed with the precision, quality, and professionalism this company is known for. From groundbreaking through final turnover, you are the on-site leader: managing subcontractors, holding the schedule, upholding safety standards, and keeping Project Managers informed so there are no surprises.

This role is for someone who takes ownership, who walks off a completed project knowing it was done right and feels good about it.

Key Responsibilities

• Provide daily supervision and direction to subcontractors to ensure projects are completed in accordance with plans, specifications, purchase orders, and timelines.
• Maintain detailed daily logs of all job site activity including subcontractors, inspectors, utility companies, and weather conditions to support accurate project documentation.
• Manage and maintain the job schedule, ensuring subcontractors are effectively coordinated and kept current on project status.
• Monitor subcontractor purchase orders for compliance with contracted specifications.
• Communicate proactively with Project Managers and Project Coordinators on status updates and any potential issues that could impact the project timeline.
• Coordinate change orders with the Project Manager prior to work commencing, ensuring all changes are properly documented and communicated.
• Uphold quality control standards throughout every phase of the project.
• Coordinate required inspections with local jurisdictions.
• Conduct daily site walks, document punch list items, upload progress photos to construction software, and drive resolution of outstanding issues prior to project completion and turnover.
• Complete and submit weekly job reports to the Project Manager.
• Maintain an orderly, clean, and safe job site at all times.
• Ensure all personnel on site adhere to safety requirements without exception.
• Provide the Project Manager with field changes to construction plans for preparation of as-built documents.
• Perform other duties as required or assigned.

Qualifications

• Minimum five (5) years of experience in industrial, residential, and/or commercial construction.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite, including Microsoft Project.
• Degree in Construction Management is helpful but not required. Demonstrated field experience and leadership are what matter most.
• Strong communication skills and a genuine commitment to accountability, both on-site and with the broader project team.

About Our Client

Our client is a family-owned general contractor built on a foundation of integrity, skilled craftsmanship, and genuine care for the people who make it run. Founded by a carpenter who started with a pickup truck, a small crew, and an unshakable work ethic, this company has grown into one of the Midwest's premier construction firms serving commercial, industrial, multifamily, and historic renovation markets across West Michigan and beyond.

That family legacy isn't a marketing line. The founder's son now leads the company as President, carrying forward the same values that launched it nearly five decades ago: treat people well, stand behind your work, and build relationships that last longer than the projects themselves.

Team members describe it as a company that offers the production capacity of a large firm while maintaining the feel of a close-knit family, where leadership knows your name, cares about your development, and values your family the way they value their own.

If you're looking for a place where your work matters, your growth is supported, and you can build a career rather than just fill a role, this is a different kind of construction company.
