Lead Superintendent
We are seeking an experienced Lead Superintendent to oversee the safe, efficient and successful delivery of complex construction projects from mobilisation through to completion. This is a senior site-based leadership role, responsible for coordinating day-to-day operations, maintaining high standards of workmanship and ensuring activities are delivered in line with approved programmes, budgets, specifications and regulatory requirements. You will act as a key point of contact between site teams, project management, subcontractors, consultants and clients.
Your duties will include planning and supervising site activities, allocating labour and resources, monitoring progress and resolving operational issues before they affect programme delivery. You will lead daily briefings, review method statements and risk assessments, coordinate subcontractor performance and ensure all works comply with health, safety, environmental and quality standards. You will also maintain accurate site records, contribute to progress reporting, support cost control and assist with commissioning, handover and close-out activities. A strong focus on workforce development is expected, including mentoring supervisors and promoting a positive, collaborative site culture.
Applicants should have substantial experience in a superintendent, senior site management or equivalent role, with a proven track record of delivering major construction or infrastructure projects. A relevant technical qualification and recognised site management or health and safety certification are desirable. You will need excellent knowledge of construction methods, sequencing, temporary works, quality assurance and safe systems of work, alongside the confidence to make sound decisions in a demanding environment. Strong communication, organisation and problem-solving skills are essential, as is the ability to build effective relationships with a wide range of stakeholders. The role may involve working across multiple sites, extended hours or occasional travel, depending on project requirements.
