  • Strong ground up construction experience from site development through final turnover
  • Experience coordinating multiple trades, subcontractors, inspections, utilities, equipment, and vendors
  • Strong understanding of construction drawings, specifications, scheduling, sequencing, and field coordination
  • Ability to identify potential schedule or construction issues early and develop practical solutions
  • Strong leadership and communication skills
  • Ability to independently manage day to day field operations
  • Must be willing and able to travel to Boise, Idaho for the initial project
  • Must be willing and able to travel to project sites throughout the United States for future assignments

Strongly Preferred Experience

Candidates with multiple completed ground up grocery stores in their project history are strongly preferred.

Travel Requirements

This is a Traveling Superintendent position.

The initial project is located in Boise, Idaho. Candidates must be able to travel to and remain in the Boise area as required to successfully manage the project.
