  • Collaborate closely with Project Managers, Architects, Engineers, and Ownership teams
  • Conduct daily walkthroughs, site inspections, and all necessary A/E/C coordination meetings
  • Provide hands-on training and development for Assistant Superintendents and junior staff
  • Enforce all local building codes and compliance standards
  • Lead site safety initiatives and work closely with safety and quality control personnel
  • Interpret blueprints, perform scope reviews, and ensure top-tier workmanship

What We’re Looking For:

  • 8-15+ years of field operations experience in commercial construction
  • Proven success on ground-up projects valued at $50 million or more
  • MEP coordination experience, particularly on advanced technology builds (e.g., data centers, distribution facilities, manufacturing) is strongly preferred
  • Deep understanding of building systems, codes, and sequencing for complex, high-tech structures
  • Strong communication and leadership skills with a team-first mindset
  • Ability to lead with accountability, positivity, and professionalism
  • B.S. in Construction Management, Civil Engineering, or related field preferred

Why Join Us?

  • Be part of an award-winning, team-oriented company with a reputation for excellence
  • Work with a forward-thinking leadership team that supports your growth
  • Earn a competitive salary, generous bonuses, and ample opportunities to move up—especially in the Columbus market, where expansion is in full swing
