Senior Traveling Superintendent - Detention / Justice

Reference: yfyxwkn8o1nc30v81kux

We are seeking a Senior Traveling Superintendent to lead the successful delivery of complex detention, correctional, courthouse, and other justice-sector construction projects across multiple locations. This is a hands-on field leadership role responsible for coordinating all site activities from mobilisation through completion, while maintaining the highest standards of safety, quality, schedule, and client satisfaction. Extensive travel and extended periods on project sites will be required.

The successful candidate will supervise subcontractors, field personnel, and project teams; review plans, specifications, and schedules; coordinate inspections and commissioning; and ensure work is completed in accordance with contractual requirements and applicable codes. Responsibilities include developing short-term look-ahead plans, monitoring progress, resolving field issues, supporting procurement and logistics, maintaining accurate daily records, and communicating regularly with project managers, clients, consultants, and trade partners. You will also lead site meetings, enforce safety procedures, identify risks, manage quality-control processes, and help coordinate work in secure, occupied, or operational facilities where confidentiality and strict access protocols are essential.

Candidates should have significant experience supervising large-scale commercial, institutional, corrections, detention, courthouse, or other justice-related construction projects, ideally from the ground-up or major renovation stages through closeout. A strong understanding of construction sequencing, building systems, contract documents, scheduling software, and applicable health and safety regulations is required. Proven ability to manage multiple subcontractors, solve problems under pressure, and work effectively with diverse stakeholders is essential. The role requires strong leadership, communication, organisation, and decision-making skills, along with a willingness to travel extensively. A relevant construction qualification, trade background, or equivalent practical experience is preferred, as are recognised safety credentials and experience working in secure environments.
