Traveling Superintendent; Commercial

WESTMORELAND BUILDERS, LLC — NOW HIRING — FIELD OPERATIONS

Traveling Superintendent – Commercial Construction Nationwide – Full‑time, exempt salary, based anywhere, per diem provided, retail & restaurant focus.

We build the spaces where people shop, eat, and gather. As a growing commercial construction management firm, we specialize in ground‑up and tenant improvement projects for national retail and restaurant brands, and we’re looking for a seasoned superintendent who knows what it takes to open on time and on brand.

This is a field‑first role for someone who thrives on the road. You’ll lead construction operations from the ground up, owning the schedule, the site, and the outcome on projects ranging from $50 K to $10 M. You can be based anywhere in the country, but you should expect to travel to project sites and work extended assignments away from home. That’s not a caveat, it’s the job, and the right person will relish it.

• Lead field operations on projects ranging from $50 K to $10 M, coordinating directly with project managers, subcontractors, suppliers, landlords, and brand representatives.
• Drive project schedules, long‑lead logs, and subcontractor phasing, with a sharp eye on the grand opening date.
• Set up and manage jobsite facilities: trailers, utilities, temporary power, and access, keeping the site safe, secure, and operationally ready.
• Run regular safety meetings and enforce OSHA standards throughout the project lifecycle.
• Coordinate between contract documents, subcontractors, and suppliers to resolve conflicts early, before they become schedule impacts.
• Lead quality inspections, own punch list execution, and manage the full project close‑out process through certificate of occupancy and client turnover.
• Manage and develop field personnel, providing direction, feedback, and real‑time coaching on site.
• Maintain accurate as‑built documentation throughout construction.

• 5+ years of commercial superintendent experience, with a preference for retail, restaurant, or other tenant improvement work in occupied or active‑use environments.
• A track record of hitting opening dates; you understand the downstream consequences of schedule slippage for retail and restaurant clients.
• Hands‑on familiarity with brand standards, landlord coordination, and the approvals process common in national rollout programs.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills; you’re comfortable presenting to ownership groups, design teams, and field crews in the same day.
• Proficiency with construction management software and scheduling tools.
• A self‑directed, problem‑first mentality; you identify issues before they become RFIs and resolve conflicts before they hit the schedule.
• Willingness to travel and work extended assignments away from home; this role is built for someone who thrives on the road.

OSHA 30, QCIS, PMP, CCM, and/or similar certifications are a bonus. We value candidates who invest in their professional development — credentials help, but your field record speaks louder.

• Ability to work in varying weather and outdoor conditions at active construction sites.
• Capable of lifting, pushing, or pulling up to 50 pounds and performing physical tasks including climbing, bending, and stooping.
• Proficiency operating standard business and field equipment (computers, phones, measuring tools).

• Exempt salary — competitive DOE
• Per diem for all out‑of‑town travel
• Medical, dental, vision & life insurance
• 401(k) with employer match
