THE ROLE
The Superintendent I leads field operations for a defined project phase or smaller standalone project under the oversight of a Senior
Superintendent. You own your scope - daily trade coordination, three-week look-aheads, quality inspections, logistics, and the
development of Assistant Superintendents working under you. You are the field counterpart to the Project Manager, jointly responsible
for safety, schedule, and quality performance within your phase.
This role carries real decision authority. You can stop unsafe work on the spot. You direct workforce deployment and trade sequencing.
You issue field directives. If you need someone to tell you what to do every day, this is not the right seat.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
• Lead daily site operations for assigned project phases,
coordinating all trades and work sequencing
• Maintain and update three-week look-ahead schedules with
the Senior Superintendent and PM team
• Track progress against milestones and flag schedule risks

quality
• Enforce safety procedures, conduct toolbox talks, and ensure
compliance with site-specific safety plans
• Coordinate logistics for deliveries, hoisting, material storage,
and temporary services
• Review drawings, submittals, and shop drawings to confirm
constructability and field compliance
• Lead quality inspections and close out corrective actions
• Ensure daily reports, photos, and workforce logs are complete
and accurate in Procore
• Mentor and develop Assistant Superintendents in
documentation, coordination, and field supervision
• Participate in trade, consultant, and client meetings to
communicate field progress
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
• 4-8 years of field experience on ground-up residential or
mixed-use construction in New York City
