Site Supervisor

Are you an experienced builder that wants to be a part of solving the housing crisis in the Berkshires?

In your four-day work week, you will lead the core activity of the Habitat mission by ensuring that all on-site construction occurs safely, on time, within budget, and at the highest standard of excellence.

You will ensure that construction teams have the required materials, supplies, training, and direction to complete projects within all building and environmental standards.
