    Gorman & Company is seeking an experienced Construction Superintendent to lead on-site construction activities at Midtown Commons, a 200-unit multifamily development in Milwaukee, WI, consisting of two 100-unit phases, with project completion anticipated in mid-2028. This role is ideal for a hands-on construction leader who can coordinate subcontractors, manage day-to-day field operations, and keep the project on schedule while maintaining high standards for safety and quality.


    What You’ll Do

    • Lead daily on-site construction operations through project completion, ensuring all work meets established safety, schedule, quality, and company standards.
    • Coordinate subcontractors, material deliveries, inspections, and construction sequencing to maintain project momentum and meet key milestones across both phases.
    • Partner with the Project Manager and General Field Superintendent to manage project schedules, anticipate material and equipment needs, resolve field challenges, and communicate progress.
    • Serve as the primary on-site point of contact for subcontractors, inspectors, suppliers, and ownership representatives, building strong working relationships and addressing issues as they arise.
    • Review construction drawings, specifications, shop drawings, submittals, and installation details to ensure work is completed accurately and in accordance with project requirements.
    • Maintain a safe, organized, and productive job site by enforcing OSHA and company safety standards, conducting weekly Toolbox Talks and safety meetings, and monitoring subcontractor performance.
    • Maintain accurate daily logs, project documentation, delivery records, timecards, as-built drawings, and project photos while overseeing punch-list completion and final project turnover.

    What You’ll Bring

    • Three or more years of experience in construction supervision or a similar field leadership role, preferably with multifamily or large-scale residential construction projects.
    • A bachelor’s degree in construction management, engineering, or a related field, or equivalent hands-on construction experience.
    • The ability to read and interpret construction drawings and specifications, with a strong understanding of construction methods, sequencing, and field operations.
    • Strong organizational, time management, attention-to-detail, and follow-up skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities and keep a project moving forward.
    • Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to lead subcontractors, collaborate with project managers, and coordinate effectively with inspectors and other project partners.
    • Proficiency in Microsoft Office, including Microsoft Project, and the ability to maintain accurate project documentation and manage schedules.
    • A valid driver’s license, current automobile insurance, and a driving record that meets company insurance requirements, along with the ability to travel overnight or for extended periods as needed.

    Why Work With Us at Gorman

    • Competitive salary of $110,000–$130,000 annually.
    • Make a lasting impact by helping deliver a 200-unit multifamily development in Milwaukee, with two 100-unit phases and anticipated completion in mid-2028.
    • Build your career with a vertically integrated company that brings development, architecture, construction, and property management expertise together under one organization.
    • Enjoy a comprehensive benefits package, including medical, dental, and vision insurance; short- and long-term disability coverage; and an employee assistance program.
    • Plan for your future with a 401(k) retirement plan featuring a 6% company match.
