We are seeking two Junior Superintendents to support a portfolio of public-sector construction and renovation projects. This role is ideal for early-career professionals with some construction experience who are looking to grow their skills in site supervision and client-side project coordination.

This is a hands-on, site-based position focused on oversight, coordination, and contractor management rather than technical design or direct construction delivery. You will play a key role in ensuring projects are executed safely, efficiently, and in line with project requirements.

  • Monitor contractors to ensure work aligns with drawings, specifications, and project standards
  • Coordinate multiple contractors across active sites
  • Review and interpret construction drawings and project scope
  • Track site progress, activity, and workforce using digital tools
  • Lead and coordinate site meetings, including progress and coordination sessions
  • Identify risks or issues early and escalate where required
  • Support delivery of renovation works such as interiors, roofing, and similar scopes
  • Assist in maintaining project schedules during active delivery phases

Requirements

  • Background in construction, engineering, or a related field
  • Previous experience working on public-sector projects is essential
  • Ability to read and interpret construction drawings and specifications
  • Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple contractors
  • Comfortable working full-time on-site
  • Basic computer skills for reporting and coordination
  • Strong communication skills and confidence in leading meetings

Ideal Candidate Profile

  • Early-career professional or junior-level site supervisor
  • Some hands-on construction or site experience
  • Proactive, reliable, and eager to develop professionally
  • Interested in progressing into Project Engineer or senior site roles over time
  • Experience in public-sector or institutional environments is highly desirable
