Own the Jobsite. Deliver the Build.
We’re partnering with a well-established commercial contractor to hire a seasoned Commercial Site Superintendent in Chicago, IL to lead ground-up and renovation projects across mixed-use, industrial, retail, and multi-unit developments.
A day on your site
You start with a safety walk and a quick huddle with subs. Permits and inspections are confirmed, deliveries sequenced, and today’s work aligned to milestones. By mid-morning, you’re reviewing drawings with the design team to resolve a field conflict. After lunch, you’re updating the schedule, logging daily reports, and checking quality benchmarks. You wrap by confirming tomorrow’s plan—on track, on budget, and built right.
What you’ll lead
- Oversee all daily field operations, coordinating trades, suppliers, and site logistics
- Champion safety practices and enforce regulatory compliance across the jobsite
- Interpret drawings, specs, and schedules to align work with key milestones
- Collaborate with designers, inspectors, and project stakeholders to solve issues quickly
- Track production, keep detailed site records, and issue regular progress updates
- Perform quality control checks to uphold workmanship standards
- Set direction for subcontractors and crews to sustain momentum and morale
- Drive schedule adherence and budget discipline from kickoff through closeout
What you bring
- Several years of supervisory experience in commercial construction
- Deep knowledge of building methods, sequencing, and field operations
- Comfort navigating permits, local codes, and inspection processes
- Confident leadership with the ability to coordinate multiple trades simultaneously
- Clear communicator and practical problem-solver
- Proficiency with construction management software and digital tools
- Safety certifications (e.g., OSHA) are a plus
