Ground-up Superintendent - Construction

Location: Fairfield County, Connecticut

Salary: up to $180K base + benefits

Please note: Must have ground-up construction experience

I’m currently working with a growing construction team looking to bring on a Superintendent with strong Multifamily construction experience, specifically someone with a solid understanding of ground-up construction.

This is a field leadership role for someone who can take ownership of the day-to-day operation of a project, lead subcontractors effectively, and keep the job moving safely, efficiently and on schedule.

You’ll be responsible for the overall field operations of your assigned project, including:

• Providing day-to-day leadership to the field team, subcontractors and trade partners
• Managing all phases of construction from mobilization through completion and turnover
• Developing and maintaining short-term/look-ahead schedules and ensuring work stays aligned with the overall project schedule
• Managing subcontractor sequencing and coordinating multiple trades to ensure the project progresses efficiently
• Planning and managing site logistics, including material deliveries, storage, staging, personnel movement and site access
• Coordinating concrete operations and ensuring work is completed in accordance with plans, specifications and project requirements
• Reviewing plans, drawings and specifications and ensuring work in the field is being executed correctly
• Monitoring subcontractor productivity, quality, manpower and progress against schedule
• Leading daily and weekly subcontractor coordination meetings and communicating upcoming activities and expectations
• Coordinating inspections and working closely with inspectors, subcontractors, project management and other project stakeholders
• Maintaining accurate daily reports covering site activity, manpower, deliveries, weather, safety and overall project progress
• Identifying potential schedule or field issues early and working with the project team to resolve them
• Ensuring materials are ordered, delivered, received, inspected, stored and available when required
• Maintaining a strong focus on site safety, quality control and housekeeping throughout the project
• Ensuring construction is completed in accordance with approved plans, specifications, building codes and quality standards
• Building strong working relationships with subcontractors, inspectors, clients and internal project teams
• Leading and motivating subcontractors and field personnel to achieve project milestones and completion dates

• Multifamily construction experience
• Strong understanding of concrete deck construction
• Proven experience managing subcontractors and field operations
• Strong knowledge of construction means and methods across multiple phases of a project
• Ability to read and interpret construction drawings, plans and specifications
• Experience managing schedules, sequencing and short-term look-ahead planning
• Strong communication, leadership and organizational skills
• Ability to identify problems in the field and drive solutions
• 8+ years of construction supervision experience preferred

If you're currently an Assistant Superintendent but have already been given the responsibility of running your own jobs, managing subcontractors and taking ownership of the field, I’m absolutely happy to take a look.

Your current title isn't necessarily the deciding factor — I’m more interested in what you’ve actually been responsible for running.
