Commercial Roofing Superintendent

Lead the crews. Know the systems. Deliver a roof you’re proud to put your name on.

You know a successful roofing project takes more than getting material onto the roof. It takes a solid plan, skilled crews, close attention to installation details, and a Superintendent who catches problems before they become costly repairs.

At Grizzly Roofing, a Nations Roof company, we’re looking for an experienced Commercial Roofing Project Superintendent to lead field operations from pre-job planning through final inspection. You’ll oversee foremen, crews, and subcontractors, coordinate with Project Managers, and keep customers informed while making sure every installation meets project specifications, manufacturer requirements, and company standards.

This is a hands-on field leadership role for someone who can read the plans, recognize a bad detail, explain the right approach, and keep the job moving safely and efficiently.

Why Grizzly Roofing?

Grizzly Roofing combines the relationships and teamwork of a local company with the resources, training, and career opportunities of Nations Roof’s national organization.

Our projects include commercial new construction, complete tear-offs, re-roofing, exterior renovations, and ongoing roof maintenance and repairs. You’ll work with people who understand the trade, value strong field leadership, and take pride in protecting the buildings our customers depend on.
