Executive Field Leadership Opportunity
An established and highly respected commercial general contractor is seeking a proven General Superintendent to oversee field operations across a large and diverse portfolio of commercial construction projects throughout the Phoenix metro area.
This is a rare opportunity to step into a true senior field leadership role with one of the top commercial GCs in Arizona - leading multiple projects, mentoring high-performing Superintendents, and directly influencing operational execution across the company.
The organization has built an exceptional reputation over decades for delivering high-quality projects, maintaining long-term client relationships, and creating one of the strongest cultures in the Phoenix construction market.
This is not simply a "jobsite Superintendent" role.
This is a leadership position for someone who genuinely wants to lead people, develop teams, improve field operations, and operate as a strategic partner to executive leadership.
What You'll Be Leading
You will oversee and support approximately 15-20 Superintendents as direct reports while helping drive field execution, operational consistency, scheduling performance, safety standards, and project delivery across multiple active commercial projects.
Projects include:
️ Ground-Up Commercial
️ Tilt-Wall Industrial
️ Retail Developments
️ Self-Storage Facilities
️ Healthcare Projects
️ Restaurant & Hospitality
️ Tenant Improvements
️ Mixed Commercial Construction Projects Across Arizona
This company performs a wide variety of commercial construction work throughout the Phoenix market and western U.S., making this an ideal opportunity for a construction leader with broad project exposure and strong operational depth.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead, mentor, and manage a team of approximately 15-20 Superintendents across multiple active projects
- Oversee field operations from preconstruction through project closeout
- Drive scheduling accountability, field coordination, and project execution standards company-wide
- Support Superintendents with project planning, manpower strategy, sequencing, logistics, and problem-solving
- Ensure all projects maintain safety, quality, and production expectations
- Partner closely with Project Managers, Operations Leadership, Ownership, and Executive Teams
- Standardize field processes, reporting, communication, and operational best practices
- Conduct project site visits, progress reviews, and operational audits
- Assist in resolving complex construction, scheduling, subcontractor, and client-related challenges
- Support hiring, training, mentorship, and development of field personnel
- Promote a strong culture of accountability, teamwork, professionalism, and safety
- Monitor staffing allocations and field resource planning across concurrent projects
- Help drive project profitability through operational efficiency and proactive field leadership
- Maintain strong relationships with owners, architects, engineers, subcontractors, and inspectors
What We're Looking For
- 10+ years of commercial construction Superintendent experience required
- Prior experience operating as a General Superintendent, Senior Superintendent, Lead Superintendent, or Multi-Project Superintendent strongly preferred
- Proven success overseeing multiple large-scale commercial projects simultaneously
- Experience leading and mentoring other Superintendents and field teams
- Strong background in ground-up commercial construction and tilt-wall projects
- Broad project exposure across retail, industrial, healthcare, storage, hospitality, and tenant improvement construction preferred
- Exceptional leadership, communication, organizational, and operational management skills
- Strong understanding of scheduling, sequencing, logistics, safety, and QA/QC
- Proficiency with Procore, Primavera P6, Microsoft Project, or similar construction technologies
- Ability to operate effectively in a fast-paced, high-volume commercial construction environment
- OSHA 10/30 Certification preferred
- Valid driver's license required
Compensation & Benefits
Base Salary: $150,000 - $200,000 DOE
Performance Bonus: Approximately 8%-12%
Vehicle Allowance + Gas Card
Benefits Include:
- Medical, Dental & Vision Insurance
- 7%-10% Company Retirement Contribution

Why This Opportunity Stands Out
This company has built one of the strongest reputations in the Phoenix construction market through exceptional leadership, long-tenured employees, and a people-first culture.
Many members of the leadership and operations team have been with the organization for 20-25+ years - a direct reflection of the stability, culture, and long-term opportunity available here.
You'll be joining a collaborative, highly respected team where leadership values operational excellence, trust, accountability, and taking care of people.
For the right construction leader, this is a long-term career destination opportunity with one of Arizona's premier commercial general contractors.
