Water & Sewer Construction Superintendent
We are seeking an experienced Water & Sewer Construction Superintendent to oversee the safe, efficient and high-quality delivery of water, wastewater and civil infrastructure projects. The successful candidate will lead field operations from mobilisation through to completion, ensuring works are delivered in accordance with approved plans, specifications, schedules, budgets and relevant legislation. Projects may include water main installation, sewer construction, drainage, pumping stations, treatment infrastructure, utility relocations, road restoration and associated civil works.
Key responsibilities include supervising site crews, subcontractors and suppliers; coordinating daily construction activities; allocating labour, plant, materials and equipment; and monitoring productivity against programme milestones. You will interpret drawings, specifications and construction methodologies, identify and resolve technical or logistical issues, and coordinate activities with engineers, surveyors, project managers, utility providers, authorities and affected stakeholders. The role will also involve maintaining accurate site records, reviewing quantities and progress claims, supporting cost control, managing variations, participating in inspections and testing, and assisting with commissioning, handover and defect rectification.
Safety and environmental performance are central to this position. You will lead toolbox talks, pre-start meetings and site inspections, enforce safe work practices, and ensure compliance with traffic management, excavation, confined-space, lifting and environmental requirements. Applicants should have substantial experience supervising water and sewer construction projects, strong knowledge of civil construction methods and relevant standards, and the ability to read and interpret technical documentation. A recognised trade, civil construction or engineering qualification, along with relevant tickets or licences, will be highly regarded. Strong leadership, communication, planning and problem-solving skills are essential, as is the ability to work collaboratively while making sound decisions in a fast-paced site environment.
