Assistant Site Superintendent

Assistant Construction Site Superintendent

As a member of the project team, the Assistant Construction Site Superintendent will embody traditional values around working hard, having personal accountability, and getting the project to the finish line without fail. They will bring a humility that lets them continue to get their hands dirty as they put in the inevitable long hours alongside everyone else on their jobsite, irrespective of their title or task. They will seek out mentors, maintain a thirst for knowledge and appreciate the people who came before them, who paved the way and passed down their lessons learned.

They will also bring a leadership style that values people's input and gets commitment through participation. They are thoughtful, fair and lead with integrity. They will prioritize the needs of the humans who do the work and value building a successful team. Their site trailers will look and feel like professional offices, and the interpersonal culture on those construction sites will be highly cooperative and respectful.  Their deadlines will be met by working collaboratively with the project team, consultants, and trade partners.  They will embrace the endless progression of technology, seek new tools and processes, and welcome the efficiencies all of these can offer.

It is important to understand there is more than one metric for measuring project success, and the health of the team standing at the finish line is one of - if not THE - most important.
