Junior Site Supervisor – Commercial Construction
Job Summary
We are seeking an experienced and dependable Junior Site Supervisor to oversee daily field operations on commercial and select residential construction projects. The Site Supervisor will be responsible for leading the jobsite, coordinating employees and subcontractors, maintaining quality and safety standards, and keeping the project moving according to schedule.
This is a hands-on leadership position. The Site Supervisor is expected to be actively involved in the day-to-day operation of the jobsite, but the primary responsibility is managing and coordinating the work—not working full-time as a tradesperson.
The ideal candidate has strong commercial construction experience, excellent leadership and communication skills, and the ability to manage multiple trades and priorities in a fast-paced environment.
Key Responsibilities
- Supervise employees, subcontractors, and daily jobsite activities
- Conduct morning safety meetings and assign daily tasks
- Coordinate subcontractors, vendors, deliveries, inspections, and site access
- Review construction drawings, scopes of work, specifications, and project requirements
- Maintain and communicate a 2-week lookahead schedule
- Plan and prepare for the following day's work
- Ensure required materials, equipment, and manpower are available before work is scheduled
- Monitor workmanship and address quality issues before they result in rework
- Maintain daily progress, quality, and safety documentation, including jobsite photos
- Maintain a clean, organized, and OSHA-compliant jobsite
- Identify potential delays, conflicts, or problems and communicate them promptly to the Project Manager
- Provide accurate daily progress reports and updates to project management
- Coordinate multiple trades to ensure work progresses efficiently and according to schedule
- Help maintain project timelines, quality standards, and overall jobsite productivity
- Enforce company safety policies and jobsite procedures
- Support the Project Manager with field coordination and project execution as needed
Qualifications
- Commercial construction supervisory experience required
- Previous experience as a Site Supervisor, Superintendent, Construction Supervisor, Foreman, or similar leadership role
- Ability to read and understand construction drawings, plans, and scopes of work
- Experience coordinating multiple trades and subcontractors
- Strong understanding of construction processes, sequencing, and jobsite operations
- Strong leadership, organization, and communication skills
- Ability to identify and resolve jobsite issues quickly and effectively
- Dependable, professional, and accountable
- Ability to manage multiple priorities while maintaining attention to detail
- Strong commitment to jobsite safety and quality
- Comfortable working in a fast-paced construction environment
What We're Looking For
We are looking for a jobsite leader who can take ownership of daily field operations, keep trades coordinated, anticipate what the project needs next, and communicate effectively with project management.
The successful candidate will be organized, proactive, dependable, and confident directing people and activities on an active construction site.
If you have the construction experience and leadership skills to keep a jobsite safe, organized, and moving forward, we want to hear from you.
