Construction Manager / General Superintendent

Construction Manager / General Superintendent
High-volume residential framing contractor · Greater Sacramento to the Central Valley · Direct hire

A long-established residential framing contractor working for California's high-volume homebuilders. Subdivision work, ground-up, repeat builder relationships, and a pipeline that does not run dry. This is a direct-hire seat with real ownership attached to it.

The Role

You own 10 to 12 active subdivisions. The territory runs from Elk Grove south through the Central Valley into Stockton and Modesto, and west as far as San Ramon. San Jose is not part of the footprint.

You are the person the builders call and the person the crews answer to. Schedules, manpower, quality, and cost all land on your desk, across every job in your territory, at the same time. You report directly to the company principal, so there is no layer between you and the decision maker.

What You Will Own

• Production schedules across 10 to 12 concurrent subdivisions, keeping framing starts and completions aligned to each builder's release schedule
• Daily management of framing crews and lead foremen in the field
• Manpower planning and crew allocation, moving labor between sites as starts and weather move
• Quality and code compliance. Walking decks, rough framing, shear, and hold-downs ahead of inspection so nothing gets red-tagged
• Coordination with builder superintendents and construction managers on starts, delays, backcharges, and changes
• Lumber and material packages, staged against the schedule and not against the yard's convenience
• Safety. OSHA standards enforced on every site, every day
• Labor cost and production tracking per plan and per unit, against budget
• Hiring, developing, and holding accountable the foremen and lead framers under you

What You Bring

• A career built in framing. This is the non-negotiable. Not a general construction manager who framed early on, but somebody whose reputation was made in framing production
• Track record running multiple production subdivisions at the same time, not one job at a time
• Leadership and management experience with direct responsibility for crews and foremen, including hiring and performance
• Ability to read framing plans, truss layouts, shear and hold-down schedules, and catch the problem before the crew builds it
• Comfort covering a wide geography. This territory carries real windshield time and the work does not come to you
• Valid California driver's license and a clean driving record
• U.S. work authorization

Strongly Preferred

• Bilingual English and Spanish. The framing crews in the field are Spanish speaking. Direction, corrections, and safety conversations happen at the crew level every day, and the person in this seat is the one having them
• Production homebuilder experience (tract and subdivision), rather than custom or commercial
• Familiarity with builder scheduling platforms (BuildPro, Hyphen, Procore) and Bluebeam

Why This Seat

Steady production pipeline with builders who keep coming back. Real autonomy over a large territory, with the authority to run it your way. Base salary plus a performance bonus tied to KPIs and company profitability, so the upside moves when your jobs perform. Company truck and gas card, because the territory is wide and you are not covering it on your own dime.
