Owns the physical execution of one project.

The Superintendent decides how the work gets built, in what sequence, with what crews, and to what standard of safety and quality.

If the work is built safely, productively and correctly, the Superintendent owns that outcome.

The Superintendent is the Project Manager's equal partner in the field — not their subordinate — and the two are jointly accountable for the project's success.

• Accountable for the safety of every person on the project, company and subcontractor alike.
• Execute the project safety plan; own daily pre-task planning and job hazard analysis quality.
• Conduct and document daily safety interactions and site inspections.
• Ensure all personnel are MSHA and task trained before they touch the work; verify, do not assume.
• Lead incident response and initial investigation; participate in root cause analysis.

• Select the means and methods for each activity within company standards; escalate non-standard or high-risk methods to the General Superintendent.
• Own work sequencing at the project level and the three-week look-ahead derived from the schedule of record.
• Plan and direct daily and weekly work through the Foremen; own crew composition and daily assignments.
• Own site logistics: access, laydown, traffic control, temporary facilities, utilities, housekeeping.
• Coordinate and direct subcontractor field forces to the sequence and schedule.
• Where designated Project Superintendent on a multi-service-line project, own sequencing between disciplines and enforce cross-discipline hold points: concrete cure before equipment setting, alignment before piping tie-in, testing before insulation, terminations before energization.

• Own field labor productivity against the estimate; know the budgeted hours for the work in front of the crew.
• Review daily labor and quantity reporting for accuracy before it enters the cost system.
• Approve crew timecards and validate overtime against approved budget hours.
• Provide the Project Manager an honest field assessment of percent complete for accruals and forecasts.
• Attend kick off meetings

• Own the quality of installed work at the point of installation; do not build to a punch list.
• Support Project Engineer hold points, inspections and testing; correct nonconforming work promptly.
• Own the punch list to completion at turnover.

• Identify potential changes immediately and report them to the Project Manager the same day. Never accept verbal direction to perform out-of-scope work.
• Interface with the client's field representative on coordination, access and sequencing only; refer all commercial, scope and schedule commitments to the Project Manager.
• Sign field T&M tickets to confirm hours and quantities actually performed — never to confirm entitlement or price.
• Attend Job walks as needed

• Field purchases, consumables and short-term rentals up to $5,000.

• 10+ years in construction with 4+ supervising field crews on industrial or mining projects; craft background preferred.
• Demonstrated ability to plan and execute work to a schedule and a budget of hours.
• Deep competency in the primary service line of the project and working competency in every adjacent line being coordinated; the role’s accountability and authority are identical regardless of which line that is.
