About the Company:

This is an exciting opportunity to join a forward-thinking design-build firm with a growing presence in the cannabis, high-end residential, and multifamily markets. Known for deep community involvement, the company places a strong emphasis on volunteerism, foundational values, and people-first culture.

They’ve spent the past few years investing in the right processes, policies, and technologies to support scalable growth in new and expanding sectors—including multifamily and commercial construction. Their team uses tools like Procore, Sage, and BuildingConnected to keep projects organized, on track, and collaborative across every phase.

Position Summary:

We’re looking for a Traveling Superintendent with ground-up and/or cannabis facility construction experience to join a dynamic and growing field operations team.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Manage daily on-site construction activities for ground-up or cannabis facility projects
  • Coordinate subcontractors, material deliveries, inspections, and equipment
  • Ensure adherence to schedule, scope, and quality expectations
  • Maintain a safe and organized jobsite, enforcing safety policies and site logistics
  • Collaborate with project management and design teams to resolve issues and drive progress
  • Track progress, perform daily reporting, and lead site meetings
  • Utilize Procore and other construction technology for documentation and communication
  • Travel to various project sites and remain on-site for the duration of the build

Qualifications:

  • 5+ years of experience as a Superintendent on ground-up commercial or cannabis facility construction projects
  • Strong field management skills and the ability to lead subcontractors effectively
  • Familiarity with MEP systems, scheduling, and site coordination
  • Proficient in Procore, and comfortable using tech tools to track project progress
  • OSHA 30 certification preferred
  • Willingness to travel and work on-site for extended durations
  • Experience in design-build environments is a plus

What You’ll Get:

  • The chance to shape high-profile projects in fast-growing sectors
  • Work with a company that genuinely cares about people, process, and purpose
  • Be part of a tight-knit, innovative, and mission-driven team
  • Competitive pay, travel perks, and opportunities for long-term career growth
  • A culture that values giving back—with ongoing community and volunteer involvement
