Job Description & How to Apply Below

We are looking for a well-rounded MEP Superintendent who leads from the front-someone who treats people with respect, communicates clearly, and builds strong working relationships across the jobsite. You'll need to be a hands-on problem solver who can adapt quickly, take ownership of your work, and consistently deliver results.

This role is very field-focused. You'll be responsible for running day-to-day site operations-coordinating subcontractors, keeping work on schedule, managing logistics, and making sure quality and safety standards are met at all times. You'll also play a key role in planning, resolving issues before they escal[ate], and keeping all stakeholders aligned.

What you'll actually be doing:
  • Running daily site operations - managing trades, sequencing work, and keeping everything moving to schedule
  • Owning safety on site - leading from the front and driving a zero-incident culture across all trades
  • Managing and updating schedules, adjusting plans when needed to avoid delays
  • Reviewing drawings and contracts to proactively catch and solve issues early
  • Leading subcontractor meetings, daily huddles, and pre-task planning sessions
  • Overseeing site logistics, materials, and coordination across teams
  • Tracking progress, maintaining reports, and documenting changes in the field
  • Supporting QA/QC processes and ensuring high-quality delivery
  • Building strong relationships with owners, subs, and project partners
  • Mentoring and developing Field Engineers and junior Superintendents
What they're looking for (experience):
  • 7-12 years' experience with a General Contractor, running $30M+ projects
  • Strong field leadership - ideally owning full scopes or major packages
  • Proven experience with scheduling, subcontractor management, and jobsite coordination
  • Strong safety background (OSHA 30, STS-C preferred)
  • Comfortable working across all phases of construction and multiple trades
  • Solid technical understanding of construction drawings and documents
  • Experience with scheduling and construction software
  • Strong organisation, communication, and problem-solving skills
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
