Why this role exists We are building capability in formwork on all concrete - not general civil.
We are looking for someone who understands
how concrete structures are built, not just how they are scheduled. **Travel will be frequent. The RoleYou will lead or support delivery of:

With a focus on:

- Formwork evaluation and selection
- Concrete sequencing and execution
- Field-driven constructability
- Oversee formwork scope on multiple projects
- Train and mentor field foreman and superintendents
- Inform division leaders on overall formwork progress and risk profile
This is a
hands-on technical leadership role, not a coordination role.
What Sets This Role ApartThis is not a traditional Superintendent role.
