Commercial Construction Superintendent - Restaurants
We are seeking an experienced Commercial Construction Superintendent to oversee restaurant construction projects from pre-construction through completion. This role will be responsible for coordinating field operations, maintaining project schedules, and ensuring that work is completed safely, efficiently, and in accordance with approved plans, specifications, and quality standards. Projects may include new restaurant builds, renovations, remodels, and conversions in active commercial environments.
Key responsibilities include managing subcontractors, trades, vendors, inspectors, and site personnel; leading daily site activities and progress meetings; reviewing drawings, specifications, and scopes of work; identifying and resolving field conflicts; and coordinating inspections, deliveries, permits, and utility requirements. The Superintendent will monitor project milestones, labour productivity, materials, and workmanship while communicating progress, risks, and required decisions to the project team. You will maintain accurate daily reports, site documentation, punch lists, safety records, and schedule updates. The role also requires proactive coordination with restaurant operations and other stakeholders to minimise disruption, particularly when working in occupied locations.
The successful candidate will have several years of experience supervising commercial construction projects, ideally within restaurants, hospitality, retail, or other fast-paced fit-out environments. Strong knowledge of construction methods, building codes, health and safety requirements, and restaurant-specific systems—including kitchen equipment, food-service utilities, mechanical services, and finishes—is highly valued. You should be confident reading construction documents, managing multiple subcontractors, and making sound decisions under demanding deadlines. Excellent communication, organisation, leadership, and problem-solving skills are essential, along with proficiency in standard construction scheduling and reporting tools. A commitment to safe working practices, quality delivery, and respectful collaboration is required. Travel between project sites and occasional evening or weekend work may be necessary to meet project needs.
