This individual is expected to manage projects with minimal day-to-day field oversight while maintaining close coordination with the assigned Project Manager.The Superintendent II is responsible for directing subcontractors and vendors, developing and maintaining project schedules, coordinating inspections, enforcing safety and quality-control requirements, resolving field conflicts, and ensuring construction progresses according to plans, specifications, schedule, and CAET standards.Successful candidates must demonstrate the ability to anticipate problems rather than simply react to them, effectively lead subcontractors, make sound field decisions, communicate project risks to the Project Manager, and take ownership of the successful field delivery of assigned projects.Experience with commercial ground-up and renovation projects is expected.

documentation, and timely completion of the project.Success at the Superintendent II level means consistently delivering commercial construction projects with a high degree of independence while

project.Develop and implement field solutions to routine construction issues while appropriately escalating significant cost, scope, design, or client concerns to the Project Manager.Implement and enforce CAET safety and quality-control policies and hold subcontractors accountable for compliance.Coordinate required inspections with local jurisdictions, consultants, and third-party inspectors and ensure work is ready prior to scheduled inspections.Maintain accurate and timely daily reports, progress photographs, manpower records, inspection records, field documentation, and project communications.Monitor field progress against project milestones and take corrective action when work begins to fall behind schedule.Manage jobsite logistics, access, staging, material storage, deliveries, cleanliness, and overall site organization.Lead punch-list completion, commissioning coordination, turnover, and field closeout activities.Partner with the Project Manager to protect project schedule, quality, cost, client expectations, and CAET's overall interests.Serve as CAET's primary field representative and maintain professional relationships with clients, subcontractors,
