Owner's Representative Superintendent (De Soto)

Role Description
We are seeking an
OR Superintendent

Schedule & Risk Management:
Track schedule progress, identify potential risks early, and drive effective recovery plans with the GC.
Technical Validation:
Review and validate all work against drawings, specs, and quality requirements to protect project integrity.
Issue Resolution:
Support the resolution of field changes, manage RFIs, and oversee field change orders (FWOs/NOCs).
Daily Reporting:
Maintain high field visibility (90% field time) and provide clear daily reporting on progress, manpower, and site constraints.
Qualifications
Experience:
5+ years as a Superintendent (Industrial/Mission Critical preferred).
Owner's Rep Mindset:
Proven ability to manage the relationship between the owner, GC, and subcontractors.
Technical Grit:
Ability to read complex construction drawings and manage multiple trades simultaneously.

Exceptional verbal/written skills; proactive mindset and ability to read the room.
Software:
Proficiency in Microsoft Suite. Experience with Bluebeam or ProCore is a plus.

Physical Requirements
Mobility:
Must be able to traverse a large, active construction site daily, including navigating uneven terrain, climbing stairs, and utilizing ladders to inspect work in progress.
Duration:
Ability to stand and walk for the majority of a shift (8–10+ hours) to maintain a constant presence in the field.
Strength:
Ability to lift, carry, or move up to 50 lbs of equipment, materials, or signage as needed.
