A Commercial Construction Superintendent serves as the contractor’s on‑site representative and is responsible for the overall field supervision, coordination, and successful completion of projects in accordance with safety, quality, budget, code, and schedule requirements. This role oversees daily construction activities, develops and maintains detailed CPM schedules, coordinates subcontractors, conducts project meetings, manages procurement of tools and materials, and ensures work is completed according to plans and specifications.

The Superintendent is responsible for enforcing OSHA and company safety standards, conducting daily Job Hazard Analyses (JHAs), leading safety meetings and inspections, and maintaining organized, safe job sites.

Additional responsibilities include documenting daily reports in Procore, anticipating and resolving design, safety, and scheduling challenges, coordinating closely with project management, interpreting contract documents, developing subcontractor scopes of work, fostering positive relationships with owners, architects, engineers, and subcontractors, and managing project closeout activities, including inspections, punch lists, warranty work, and site demobilization. Strong judgment, leadership, communication, and decision‑making skills are essential to successfully lead projects and achieve or exceed project objectives.

The position requires the physical ability to move, lift, carry, store, and transport materials and equipment weighing 80 pounds or more. Candidates must be capable of inspecting all areas of a construction project in various weather conditions, which may involve stooping, bending, climbing, pushing, crawling, stretching, and other physically demanding activities. The role also requires flexibility to travel as needed based on project location and demands, as well as the availability to respond to job site delays, emergencies, adverse weather conditions, and other unforeseen issues that may arise during project execution.

At Proset Construction, Superintendent compensation is based on demonstrated accountability and performance, not tenure, effort, or job title alone. While all individuals carry the title Superintendent, compensation varies based on internal capability bands. Must meet all employment requirements.
