Description

Construction Superintendent

We're looking for a Construction Superintendent who brings order, accountability, and pride to every site they run - someone who earns trust fast and treats every subcontractor, owner, and crew like a long-term partner, because at MCL, they are.

The title is Superintendent. The real job is leadership from the ground up - the kind that keeps a crew moving and a client confident.

Your Day-to-Day

Run the Project
  • Lead all on-site operations for commercial projects typically ranging $5M-$30M+ safe, clean, on schedule, and within budget.
  • Own the master schedule and manpower planning; always maintain a clear six-week look-ahead.
  • Direct resource allocation, equipment use, and field cost control.
  • Get ahead of schedule, budget, and scope issues before they become problems.
  • Manage field documentation: RFIs, submittals, change orders, QC records, and closeout.

Lead People and Partners
  • Serve as the primary on-site point of contact for owners, architects, engineers, and subs.
  • Lead preconstruction meetings and weekly coordination with a focus on safety, schedule, and quality.
  • Hold subcontractors accountable to performance and quality standards - professionally and consistently.
  • Resolve field conflicts quickly so work keeps moving.

Hold the Line on Safety and Quality
  • Maintain a visible, no-compromise safety presence on-site every single day.
  • Run toolbox talks, safety meetings, and inspections; document and address hazards immediately.
  • Enforce MCL's quality standards so the finished product is something the whole crew is proud of.

The Right Fit

You're a strong fit if you:
  • 7+ years of progressive construction experience, with 3+ years running jobs as a superintendent.
  • Proven track record delivering commercial projects in the $5M-$30M+ range.
  • Know your way around scheduling systems (Procore, P6, or similar) and actually use look-ahead planning.
  • Fluent in contract documents, submittals, RFIs, and change order management.
  • OSHA 30 certification required; First Aid/CPR a plus.
  • Communicate directly and clearly - with owners, subs, and your own team.
  • Run a clean, organized, professional job site without being told to.
  • Able to travel or take extended project assignments when the work calls for it.


Competitive Compensation Package with benefits including: Medical, Dental & Vision • 401(k) with company match • Generous PTO • Travel opportunities • And more
