Our client, a well-established General Contractor & Construction Management specialist with a deep history in Florida, is seeking a dedicated Construction Superintendent for commercial projects in the Orlando area.
We are looking for a field leader with 5–10 years of experience who can successfully transition a project from "dirt" to "done," managing the complexities of commercial infrastructure, structural systems, and professional stakeholder demands.
ABOUT THE ROLE
Site Management: Direct all daily onsite operations, ensuring that the project progresses according to the design intent. You are responsible for the physical execution of the work, from initial site-prep to final certificate of occupancy.
Commercial Schedule Execution: Maintain and drive the project schedule. You will coordinate the sequence of work for all trades, identifying potential delays before they happen and implementing recovery plans when necessary.
Quality & Standards: Enforce high-level quality control. In the commercial sector, this means ensuring precise tolerances for structural steel, masonry, and high-spec interior finishes while ensuring all work meets Florida building codes.
Safety Enforcement: Serve as the primary Safety Officer on-site. You will ensure 100% OSHA compliance, manage safety documentation, and lead regular safety meetings to maintain a risk-free job site.
Trade Coordination: Directly supervise subcontractors and vendors. You’ll be the point person for resolving field conflicts, clarifying drawings, and ensuring that mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) systems are integrated seamlessly.
Documentation: Maintain accurate daily logs, including weather delays, manpower counts, and material deliveries. You will provide clear, concise weekly updates to the Project Manager and ownership.
Inspections & Permitting: Coordinate with local Orlando building authorities and third-party inspectors. You are responsible for ensuring all work is inspected and passed at the appropriate milestones.
ABOUT THE CANDIDATE
Experience: 5–10 years of experience as a Superintendent (or Assistant Superintendent on very large-scale projects) specifically within the commercial construction sector.
Project History: A proven track record of completing ground-up commercial projects such as retail centers, office buildings, or medical facilities.
Technical Skills: Deep knowledge of commercial building systems, including structural steel, reinforced concrete/masonry, and complex HVAC/Electrical layouts.
Project Tech: Proficiency in using digital tools for the field (e.g., Procore, PlanGrid, or Bluebeam) to manage RFIs, submittals, and photos.
Leadership: Strong communication skills and a firm-but-fair approach to managing diverse subcontractor crews.
