Position SummaryThe General Superintendent provides portfolio-level field leadership for all active projects under Marian Construction and is accountable for consistent, predictable execution across all active projects. This role exists to ensure field operating systems are fully installed, standards are enforced uniformly, and execution outcomes are reliable without heroics.
