Senior Superintendent
We are seeking an experienced Senior Superintendent to provide strategic and operational leadership across complex construction and infrastructure projects. This role will be responsible for overseeing site delivery from mobilisation through to completion, ensuring work is performed safely, efficiently, on schedule and in accordance with approved budgets, designs, specifications and contractual obligations. The successful candidate will lead multidisciplinary site teams, coordinate contractors and consultants, and establish a high-performing culture focused on accountability, collaboration and continuous improvement.
Key responsibilities include developing and maintaining construction programs; monitoring progress, productivity, quality and costs; reviewing methodologies, drawings and technical documentation; and identifying and resolving risks, constraints and emerging issues. You will manage site coordination meetings, provide accurate progress and performance reporting, support procurement and subcontractor management, and ensure compliance with relevant legislation, permits, environmental requirements and project controls. You will also champion health, safety and environmental standards, investigate incidents, implement corrective actions and ensure all teams understand and meet project expectations. Strong communication with clients, project managers, engineers, suppliers and community stakeholders will be essential.
Applicants should have substantial experience in a senior site leadership role, ideally delivering major construction, civil, infrastructure, resources or industrial projects. A relevant trade, technical or tertiary qualification is desirable, together with demonstrated knowledge of construction methods, scheduling, cost control, quality systems, risk management and contract administration. You will need proven experience leading large teams and subcontractor workforces, managing multiple priorities and delivering outcomes in demanding environments. Strong commercial judgement, sound decision-making, excellent communication skills and a practical, solutions-focused approach are essential. The ability to interpret technical information, use project management systems and promote a respectful, inclusive workplace will be highly valued. A current driver’s licence and any role-specific safety or site certifications may also be required.
