Paving Superintendent
Paving Superintendent
An experienced Paving Superintendent is required to lead and coordinate paving operations across a range of civil engineering, highways and infrastructure projects. This is a hands-on supervisory role, responsible for ensuring work is delivered safely, efficiently and to the required quality, programme and specification.
You will oversee site teams, plant and subcontractors, providing clear direction from initial set-up through to completion. Working closely with project managers, engineers and site supervisors, you will monitor daily progress, resolve operational issues and maintain effective communication across all activities.
Key responsibilities
- Supervise all paving and surfacing activities, ensuring works are completed in line with drawings, specifications and agreed programmes.
- Coordinate labour, materials, plant and subcontractors to maximise productivity and minimise disruption.
- Set out daily tasks, brief operatives and monitor performance throughout each shift.
- Inspect workmanship, levels, finishes and compaction to ensure consistently high standards.
- Promote a strong culture of health, safety, environmental compliance and quality on site.
- Maintain accurate records, including site reports, quantities, deliveries, plant usage and progress updates.
- Identify potential delays, defects or resource requirements and escalate issues promptly.
- Support the planning and sequencing of works, including traffic management and site logistics.
About you
You will have substantial experience supervising paving, asphalt or surfacing operations, ideally within highways, road construction or large-scale civil engineering. A sound understanding of paving equipment, materials, laying techniques and quality control requirements is essential.
Strong leadership and organisational skills are required, together with the confidence to make decisions in a fast-moving site environment. You should be able to read technical drawings, work effectively with project stakeholders and maintain accurate documentation. Relevant industry qualifications, site safety training and experience operating or overseeing paving machinery would be advantageous.
What is offered
This role provides the opportunity to take responsibility for significant paving operations, work alongside experienced construction professionals and contribute to the successful delivery of high-profile infrastructure projects. A competitive package, ongoing development and long-term career prospects are available for the right candidate.
