Lead Superintendent

Denver, Colorado Permanent USD115,000 - USD145,000 per year View Job Description
An established, privately held general contractor is seeking a Lead Superintendent to oversee ground‑up multifamily developments in the greater Denver metro area. This role offers long‑term project continuity, excellent benefits, and a company culture focused on craftsmanship, stability, and career growth rather than one‑off projects.
  • Join a stable, family‑oriented general contractor with a 50+ year reputation.
  • Lead high‑quality multifamily projects with strong pay, benefits, and longevity.

About Our Client

You will be joining a respected, mid‑sized general contractor with deep roots in the Colorado market. Known for high‑quality multifamily, mixed‑use, and community‑focused developments, the business prides itself on employee retention, transparent leadership, and consistent investment in its people. This is a firm where Superintendents are valued long‑term partners, not project‑by‑project hires.

Job Description

As the Lead Superintendent, you will report directly to senior operations leadership and take full ownership of site execution on complex multifamily projects.

  • Lead day‑to‑day field operations on $25M-$30M, 70-80 unit multifamily builds
  • Manage subcontractors, schedules, and site safety from start to finish
  • Drive project milestones, quality control, and on‑time delivery
  • Coordinate with Project Managers, design teams, and inspectors
  • Maintain construction schedules using industry‑standard scheduling software
  • Oversee site logistics, inspections, and documentation
  • Act as the on‑site leader and culture carrier for the project team

  • Experience using scheduling software (Microsoft Project, Primavera P6, or similar)
  • Familiarity with Procore or comparable project management platforms
  • Ability to lead subcontractors and field teams with confidence
