Full job description

At Vermont Construction Company, the Construction Supervisor is the most critical on-site leader—the frontline guardian of our brand, our budget, and our commitment to safety. We are not looking for someone to simply oversee; we are looking for a decisive, technically brilliant owner who is fully accountable for the daily success, schedule adherence, and zero-defect quality of every project phase. Reporting directly to the Project Management team, you will ensure our high-value projects are built right the first time, protecting our profitability and cementing our reputation. If you are ready to take full ownership of the field and are driven to build a long-term career that progresses into senior operational leadership, this is your permanent home.

Core Responsibilities

1. Quality Control & Finishing Excellence

• Zero-Rework Standard: Conduct daily, meticulous inspections of work in progress, with a focus on finishing trades (drywall, flooring, paint, specialized systems), ensuring all output meets or exceeds company standards and client specifications.
• Punch-List Mastery: Own the final delivery phase, proactively identifying and resolving quality nonconformances instantly. Manage the punch-list process to ensure flawless client turnover with a target of less than 1% rework rate.
• Technical Guidance: Interpret complex blueprints, schematics, and technical specifications to provide clear, definitive guidance to subcontractors and crews, serving as the ultimate technical authority on site.

2. Safety, Compliance, & Financial Stewardship

• Safety Ownership: Enforce unwavering adherence to OSHA safety protocols and all local, state, and federal building codes. Conduct daily safety meetings, site inspections, and maintain rigorous documentation to achieve a metric of zero reportable incidents.
• Cost Control Partnership: Serve as the financial eyes and ears on the ground. Actively monitor site logistics, manage material usage to minimize waste, and maintain comprehensive daily reports that capture conditions, progress, and necessary change order documentation to protect project profit margins.
• Documentation & Reporting: Maintain meticulous records, including daily logs, photo documentation of key work, and compliance records, ensuring the field activities seamlessly support the Project Control team's financial reporting and contractual requirements.

3. Crew & Subcontractor Leadership

• Accountability & Mentorship: Direct, mentor, and manage the performance of all on-site crews and subcontractors, holding them accountable to our schedule, budget, and quality standards.
• Schedule Adherence: Own the daily schedule, actively managing site resources, and coordinating trade flow to ensure all schedule milestones are achieved and project delays are eliminated.
• Liaison: Act as the primary on-site communication link for the Project Manager, General Contractors, and client representatives, maintaining a professional and solution-oriented presence.

Required Qualifications for Leadership

• Experience: 5+ years of hands-on experience in commercial construction, with at least 2 years in a dedicated supervisory or superintendent role. Deep expertise in finishing trades is highly preferred.
• Certifications: Mandatory OSHA 30-hour certification or ability to obtain within 90 days.
• Technical Skills: Expert ability to read, interpret, and implement complex construction drawings, specifications, and project documents.
• Software Proficiency: Experience utilizing construction management software (e.g., Procore), scheduling tools, and digital plan viewers (Bluebeam) for field documentation and reporting.
• Core Leadership Skills: Proven track record of managing and training field personnel, exceptional verbal and written communication, and the decisive problem-solving skills required to manage a dynamic, multi-site environment.
