Position: General Foreperson - Vancouver

Project Type: Construction

Project Location: Vancouver

Shift: Day

Schedule:
GC: Graham

Allied Partner: Technical Workforce Inc.

Reference Number: 23125

Jardeg is currently recruiting for a **General Foreperson Position,** on a construction role with the Vancouver project team. There is no camp accommodations or LOA provided. Must be local to Vancouver, BC or the surrounding area.

Reporting to the Superintendent / Project Manager, General Foreperson assists and supports senior Superintendents with field operations from initial project planning to completion, and is responsible for implementing plans from their Superintendent and Project Manager with respect to project activities, including the supervision of self-performed and subcontracted construction work. The incumbent focuses on the execution of the work and is engaged directly with all trades and sub-trades, serving as a communicator between the Superintendent and the working foreperson to ensure that project milestones are translated meaningfully to the crews. The incumbent is responsible for effectively leading, managing, maintaining, and disciplining subordinates professionally and objectively, and is aware of which issues they can manage themselves and which issues need to be escalated. Under the guidance of senior Superintendents, the incumbent is actively working to transition from ‘building the job’ to ‘managing the job,’ recognizing the challenges and opportunities that accompany that shift.

**Execution**:

- Coordinate the details required in the development of construction strategies, project execution plans, schedules, and estimates.
- Communicate consistently with subcontractors and staff the expectations and directions regarding schedules, construction methods, company policies and procedures, permits, safety/loss prevention, quality control, and other performance standards.
- Assist with the review and coordination of the project safety plan.
- Review the submissions and revisions of project drawings with subcontractors and other superintendents.
- Attend all pre-tender meetings.
- Assist with the planning and preparation of project execution, inspection, testing and safe work plans.
- Ensure that the project site and company assets are always secure and maintain a safe and respectful working environment.
- Manage team members and assist with conducting performance reviews. Under the supervision of a senior Superintendent, carry out performance management, disciplinary action, termination, back charges and other required actions.
- Review billable charges for materials and subcontractor requisitions and obtain appropriate approvals.
- Attend all Progress and Safety meetings with all subcontractor representatives and review and obtain agreements on upcoming work to be accomplished.
- Ensure project closeout is appropriately finalized to settle all financial obligations, demobilize all resources, and transition the project to the client.

**Planning and Process**:

- Understand the project specifications and general conditions of the contract and confirm that all materials and work comply with the contract and quality specifications.
- Advise Project Manager and other personnel as required with respect to changes to methods, materials, schedules and procedures.

**Financial Accountabilities**:

- Assist in the review and update of progress, cost reports, schedules, and forecasts to completion regularly.
- Assist in the management of the project budget by controlling expenses, administering owner and subcontractor billings, and identifying work not covered by subcontractor’s scope of work/budget.
- Conduct business in line with client guidelines.
- Client Focus
- Assist with managing the experience of customers to ensure positive relationships are established and maintained.

**HSEQ**:

- Take personal responsibility both for your own health and safety, and that of other workers, visitors to the site(s), the community, and the environment.
- Assist, conduct, and coach worker(s) in Field Level Risk Assessments (FLRAs), and Behaviour Based Safety (BBS).
- Know and comply with client requirements, Occupational Health and Safety Regulations, and all applicable government laws and regulations.
- Hold direct reports accountable for HSE performance and verify that subordinates are executing their responsibilities properly.
- Always demonstrate HSE leadership.
- Ensure contractors and subcontractors meet or exceed HSE MS requirements during execution of work.
- Hold the authority to control the quality performance on project site.
- Communicate the PSQP to the project site team including subcontractors.
- Execute the PSQP and implementation of all quality activities on site.
- Monitor the performance of quality by the subcontractors.
- Verify that the project site team is performing all required quality activities and hold them accountable for their quality performance.
