Your role will include:
- Providing senior leadership across all field operations from early works through commissioning
- Working closely with project management, engineering, and preconstruction teams to develop realistic execution plans
- Setting construction strategies, sequencing approaches, and resource plans that drive schedule and reduce risk
- Overseeing multiple Superintendents, supporting them in decision-making and day-to-day execution
- Championing safety, quality, productivity, and collaboration on site
- Acting as a senior field representative with owners, consultants, and trade partners
- Identifying risks early and driving practical, field-informed solutions
About You
You’re a seasoned field operations leader with the experience and judgement to manage complexity at scale.
You’ve likely spent years progressing through operational roles and now function comfortably at a large project or multi-site level. You understand how civil, structural, mechanical, electrical, and process scopes intersect on treatment facilities, and you know where coordination typically breaks down if leadership isn’t strong.
You would describe yourself as someone who:
- Has led field operations on large, complex civil or infrastructure projects
- Are comfortable overseeing multiple Superintendents and large, multi-discipline site teams
- Brings a planning-first mindset, with a strong grasp of sequencing, constructability, and workforce strategy
- Communicates clearly and earns trust with owners, engineers, and project partners
- Leads calmly under pressure and makes sound decisions when conditions change
- Holds safety, quality, and professionalism as absolutes, not talking points
- Enjoys mentoring Superintendents and building the next generation of field leadership
You’re not chasing titles. You’re looking for the kind of role where your experience actually shapes successful outcomes.
About the Job
As General Superintendent/Construction Manager, you will be accountable for the overall execution of water and wastewater treatment projects and other complex infrastructure, with a focus on field planning, team leadership, and delivery consistency.
In return, you’ll find:
- A leadership role on technically challenging projects of real scale
- An organization that values builders, field input, and operational excellence
- Employee ownership that aligns long-term thinking with long-term reward
- Strong support from experienced operational and executive leadership
- Competitive compensation and benefits tied to sustained success
- The opportunity to influence how major infrastructure is delivered, not just manage it
This is a role for a senior field leader who wants to build more than projects, your passion is in building teams, systems, and a legacy of well-executed work.
