Traveling Construction Superintendent (TI)

Job Details Location: Field based for the duration of each project (various U.S. project sites) Reports To: Director of Construction Job Type: Full-Time Travel Required: Extended on-site assignments, 4-6 months per build Business Entity: MCS (Magma Core Solutions), a Lava Island company Why You'll Love Working at Lava Island You build something people remember, not another generic box. Own the whole build, demolition to handoff, not just a phase of it. You run the site. We trust your judgment on the ground. A steady pipeline of work as Lava Island opens more parks every year. No scrambling for the next project. Every few months, a new build in a new city. Fast-moving work, never the same site for years. Competitive pay, company-provided housing while on assignment, travel allowance, and full benefits. What You'll Do You are the leader on the ground for the build‑out of a new park, from an empty leased space to a finished park ready to open. It is a tenant improvement build, not ground‑up, and it moves fast. Lead the Build Run all on‑site construction, from demolition through finish work and final handoff. Direct every trade through the space: general construction, mechanical, electrical and plumbing, finishes, themed work, commercial kitchen, fire and life safety, security and AV, low‑voltage, signage, and specialty installs. Set the pace and the standard on site as the face of MCS and Lava Island. Run the Site Own the schedule. Keep every trade sequenced, every inspection ready, every milestone on track, and communicate schedule risk early. Hold quality high and protect finished work as the build moves around it.Manage the budget at the field level: review subcontractor pay applications, track field spend, and flag variances early. Identify and document field changes and route them through the change‑order process with the HQ Project Manager. Coordinate municipal, state, and third‑party inspections, and keep the project compliant with permitting, code, and safety requirements throughout. Work within the lease and landlord constraints on access, utilities, common areas, and hours for noisy work. Keep the site safe, secure, organized, and documented from day one to handoff. Run the project day to day through Procore and mobile field tools. Deliver the Park Coordinate on site with APS, our sister company that installs the playground and trampoline attractions. Hand over a clean, complete, opening‑ready park to the team that takes it from there. Who We're Looking For We are hiring at two levels. Tell us where you fit and we will place you there. Experienced Superintendents — you have run interior or tenant improvement build‑outs end to end, can lead a park independently from day one, and are ready to help bring newer Superintendents up to speed. Developing Superintendents — you have solid construction field experience and are ready to grow into running your own park build within about a year, working alongside a seasoned Superintendent. Either way, the Superintendents who do well at MCS are: Genuinely comfortable with technology. The job runs on Procore, iPads, and cloud tools every day. This one is not optional. Highly organized. Many trades, many deadlines, many inspections at once, all kept in disciplined order. Able to travel and live on site. Builds run four to six months in company‑provided housing near the project, with regular trips home. Be sure about this part before applying. Builders who hold a standard, keep subcontractors accountable without making the site miserable, and treat the schedule as a promise to the people who come next. What You'll Need Experienced level: typically eight or more years in on‑site construction leadership, with a track record of independently delivering interior or tenant improvement build‑outs end to end. Developing level: typically three or more years of construction field experience with solid fundamentals and a path to independent build leadership within about a year. Hands‑on experience managing subcontractors and multiple trades through the full lifecycle of a project. Ability to read and interpret construction drawings, specifications, submittals, and lease exhibits. Working proficiency with Procore (or comparable construction management software) and daily comfort with iPads and cloud‑based field tools. Able and willing to live on site near the active build for the full duration of each project, typically four to six months, with periodic travel home. This is a firm requirement of the role. OSHA 10 certification at hire; OSHA 30 within 12 months of hire. Equipment certifications (scissor lift, forklift, boom lift), or willingness to obtain them. Valid driver's license and reliable transportation. Must pass a background check. Able to stand, walk, climb ladders, and move for extended periods on an active construction site and lift up to 50 lbs. Bilingual (Spanish/English) is a strong plus. #J-18808-Ljbffr Lava-Island
