Construction Manager/ Foreman, Site Manager
We're partnered with a well-established Chicago real estate Developer that's looking to add a Superintendent to its growing construction team.
What makes this opportunity unique is the company's involvement throughout the entire real estate lifecycle — they develop, build, and lease their own properties
. With ownership, development, and construction closely aligned, the field team benefits from more streamlined decision-making and direct access to the people behind each project.
The majority of their portfolio consists of ground-up multifamily and high-rise developments
, alongside a diverse mix of commercial interiors, hospitality, restaurant, data center, and other specialty projects
. For a Superintendent, this means the opportunity to lead major builds while still gaining exposure to a variety of construction types.
The pipeline is a major selling point. They have several exciting projects underway, multiple future phases already planned, and additional developments on the horizon
, providing long-term stability and plenty of opportunity to take on increasingly complex projects.
- Lead day-to-day field operations from mobilization through final turnover
- Manage subcontractors, field personnel, site logistics, and project schedules
- Coordinate closely with Project Managers, ownership, architects, and trade partners
- Drive safety, quality control, inspections, and overall jobsite performance
- Manage short-term scheduling and ensure milestones remain on track
- Identify and resolve field issues before they impact schedule or budget
