Construction Superintendent
Construction Superintendent
We are seeking an experienced Construction Superintendent to oversee the safe, efficient and high-quality delivery of construction projects from mobilisation through to completion. This is a hands-on leadership role requiring strong commercial awareness, sound technical knowledge and the ability to coordinate multiple teams and contractors on site.
You will be responsible for managing day-to-day site operations, ensuring work is delivered in accordance with approved drawings, specifications, programmes and relevant legislation. Working closely with project managers, engineers, subcontractors and suppliers, you will maintain clear communication and ensure that any issues are identified and resolved promptly.
Key responsibilities
- Lead and coordinate all construction activities on site, ensuring work is completed safely, efficiently and to the required quality standards.
- Supervise subcontractors, site personnel and specialist trades, providing direction, support and performance feedback.
- Monitor progress against the construction programme and provide regular updates on milestones, risks and potential delays.
- Review drawings, method statements, risk assessments and technical documentation, escalating discrepancies where necessary.
- Implement and maintain robust health and safety procedures, including inspections, briefings and incident reporting.
- Coordinate deliveries, plant, materials and site logistics to support uninterrupted progress.
- Work with quality teams to manage inspections, testing, snagging and handover documentation.
- Maintain accurate site records, daily reports and relevant compliance documentation.
About you
You will have substantial experience in a site-based construction leadership role, with a proven record of delivering projects safely, on programme and to a high standard. Experience managing complex projects, multiple subcontractors and changing priorities is essential. A relevant construction qualification, such as an HNC, NVQ Level 6 or equivalent, would be advantageous, as would industry-recognised health and safety training.
Strong leadership, organisation and problem-solving skills are required, alongside the confidence to make decisions and communicate effectively with colleagues at all levels. A proactive approach, attention to detail and commitment to quality will be highly valued.
