Superintendent, Construction

Steve Black Construction, Inc. is seeking an experienced Construction Superintendent to lead day-to-day field operations on commercial construction projects throughout Central Florida.

We are looking for a hands-on jobsite leader who takes ownership of the work, communicates effectively with subcontractors and the project team, and understands that successful construction requires strong attention to schedule, safety, quality and accountability.

The Superintendent is responsible for managing the daily activities of the jobsite and coordinating subcontractors, suppliers, inspections and company personnel.

The successful candidate will be able to look at a project and answer:

What needs to happen today? What needs to happen this week? What could prevent us from finishing on time?
