Oversee excavation, foundation, parkade, framing, building envelope, and interior finishing phases.
Conduct regular site meetings, safety inspections, and progress reviews.
Maintain accurate documentation, including site reports, RFIs, daily logs, and deficiency lists.
Ensure site compliance with building codes, company standards, and OH&S regulations.
Work closely with the Project Manager to provide updates, identify risks, and resolve site challenges.
Qualifications & Experience
7+ years of construction experience, including several years as a Superintendent or Senior Foreman.
Proven experience delivering 4-6 storey wood-frame multi-family buildings, ideally with parkade components.
Strong ability to read drawings, manage site sequencing, and coordinate trades.
Excellent leadership presence, firm but fair, with a focus on respect, teamwork, and accountability.
Strong safety mindset; COR or safety training certifications are an asset.
Experience with Procore (or similar construction management software) preferred.
What's In It for You
