Construction Manager/ Foreman, Site Manager
Working Foreman / Site Manager — Ridgewood, Queens About the Role
Woodward Built is seeking a Working Foreman who thrives equally in the field and in project coordination — someone who wears a tool belt but also takes ownership of the big picture.

This role bridges the hands‑on and the managerial: you’ll work on site daily with our crew while also managing workflow, sequencing, materials, and communication with our subs, and between the field and office. You’ll be instrumental in turning creative concepts into high-quality, well‑executed built environments.
