Senior Superintendent
We are seeking an experienced Senior Superintendent to lead the successful delivery of complex construction projects from pre-construction planning through completion. This role will provide senior-level oversight of field operations, ensuring that projects are delivered safely, efficiently, on schedule, within budget, and to the required quality standards. The successful candidate will serve as a key point of contact between project management, site teams, subcontractors, consultants, clients, and other stakeholders.
Responsibilities will include developing and maintaining project execution plans, coordinating site logistics, sequencing work activities, monitoring progress, and resolving construction issues promptly. You will supervise and mentor superintendents, foremen, and trade partners while promoting a collaborative, accountable, and high-performing site culture. The role will also involve reviewing drawings and specifications, identifying potential risks, supporting cost and schedule forecasting, managing change, and ensuring that all work complies with contractual requirements, applicable legislation, and approved standards. You will lead regular site meetings, provide clear progress reporting, and work closely with project leadership to implement recovery plans where necessary.
Candidates should have substantial experience managing large-scale or highly complex construction projects, with a strong understanding of construction methods, scheduling, quality control, safety management, and subcontractor coordination. Proven leadership experience and the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment are essential. Strong communication, negotiation, decision-making, and problem-solving skills are required, along with a proactive approach to identifying and addressing challenges. A relevant technical qualification, trade background, or degree in construction management, engineering, or a related discipline is preferred. Relevant industry certifications and experience with construction management and scheduling software will be advantageous. The successful candidate must be willing to work on active project sites and travel or relocate as project requirements dictate.
