Civil Superintendent
Civil Superintendent
An experienced Civil Superintendent is required to oversee the safe, efficient and high-quality delivery of civil engineering and infrastructure works. This is an excellent opportunity for a proven construction professional to take responsibility for site operations, coordinate multidisciplinary teams and ensure projects are delivered to programme, budget and specification.
Working closely with the Project Manager, engineers, subcontractors and client representatives, you will provide strong leadership across all civil works. You will ensure that construction activities are properly planned, resourced and executed in accordance with approved designs, method statements and relevant legislation.
Key responsibilities
- Supervise daily site activities, including earthworks, drainage, foundations, utilities, concrete works, roads and associated infrastructure.
- Coordinate subcontractors, direct labour, plant, materials and site logistics to maintain progress.
- Interpret drawings, specifications and construction programmes, identifying and resolving issues promptly.
- Monitor workmanship, quality assurance and inspection processes, ensuring defects are addressed efficiently.
- Promote a strong health, safety and environmental culture, including toolbox talks, site inspections and compliance checks.
- Maintain accurate records, progress reports, timesheets and relevant site documentation.
- Work with engineers and commercial teams to manage variations, constraints, materials and sequencing.
- Attend progress meetings and provide clear updates on performance, risks and planned activities.
About you
You will have substantial experience supervising civil engineering or major construction projects, ideally within infrastructure, highways, utilities, energy or industrial environments. A recognised qualification in civil engineering, construction management or a related discipline is desirable, together with relevant site safety training and a strong understanding of UK construction standards.
Strong communication, organisation and problem-solving skills are essential. You must be confident directing teams, managing competing priorities and building effective working relationships at all levels. A proactive approach, commercial awareness and commitment to safe, high-quality delivery will be highly valued.
This role may involve working across active construction sites and occasional travel. In return, you can expect a professional working environment, opportunities for development and the chance to contribute to significant civil engineering projects.
