General Superintendent

As General Superintendent, you provide senior field leadership across multiple crews and Superintendents executing geotechnical construction, ground support, slope stabilization, and deep foundation projects throughout the United States. You serve as the senior technical and operational leader in the field, overseeing safety, production, quality, personnel development, and stakeholder relationships across your assigned teams.

Key Responsibilities

• Champion and reinforce a strong safety culture, ensuring every team member understands and follows established safety programs and procedures. Protecting people is the highest priority.
• Lead, coach, mentor, and formally evaluate Superintendents on a regular basis; provide performance coaching and recommend compensation and recognition decisions as appropriate.
• Support field leadership on active projects involving advanced drilling, casing installation, foundation construction, grouting, anchoring, and related ground support systems.
• Develop and maintain training programs for field personnel, from entry-level crew members through senior operators and supervisors.
• Participate in leadership and operations meetings, providing updates on project performance, safety, staffing, operational risks, and business challenges.
• Coordinate crew scheduling and resource allocation in collaboration with operations teams, balancing project demands, travel schedules, and employee availability.
• Facilitate communication and coordination among project teams, engineering staff, clients, subcontractors, and internal stakeholders.
• Ensure all work is completed in accordance with project plans, specifications, quality standards, and approved work procedures.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with project owners, contractors, engineers, vendors, and other key stakeholders.
• Drive accountability, productivity, and continuous improvement across multiple teams.
• Lead by example and maintain a strong field presence.

• Develop future leaders capable of independently managing crews, maintaining quality standards, and mentoring others.
• Take ownership of project outcomes, not just daily production targets.
• Elevate standards across multiple teams and projects.
• Earn trust through technical expertise, sound judgment, and strong leadership.
