Position Summary


J & J Construction is seeking a hands-on Working Superintendent who can run commercial construction projects in the field while also self-performing carpentry and related trade work as needed. This role is ideal for a leader who is equally comfortable managing subcontractors, coordinating with airport/owner representatives, and picking up tools to keep production moving.

  • Coordinate inspections, testing, and owner/airport requirements.

  • Conduct daily site walks and enforce quality control standards.

  • Maintain site organization, logistics planning, and material flow.

  • Proactively identify and solve field issues before they impact schedule or cost.

  • Perform and/or assist with carpentry and general trades work including:

    • Framing (metal/wood)

    • Blocking and backing

    • Doors, frames, and hardware installation

Safety & Compliance


  • Enforce company safety policies and site-specific safety plans.

  • Conduct toolbox talks and maintain a safe jobsite.

  • Ensure compliance with airport, federal, and local regulations.

  • Maintain proper documentation (daily reports, incident reports, etc.).

Communication & Documentation


  • Submit accurate daily reports with manpower, production, and issues.

  • Coordinate with Project Managers and office staff.

  • Track field quantities and assist with change order documentation.

  • Participate in project meetings with clients and inspectors.

  • Represent J & J Construction professionally at all times.

Qualifications


  • 7+ years of commercial construction field experience.

  • 3+ years in a Superintendent or Lead Foreman role.

  • Strong carpentry background with the ability to self-perform work.

  • Experience in airport or secure environment projects preferred.

  • Ability to read and interpret drawings, specifications, and schedules.

  • Strong leadership and communication skills.

  • OSHA 30 certification preferred.
