Site Superintendent - Commercial Construction

SUGARED + BRONZED•Glendale, CA

1d•$90,000 - $120,000•Onsite

About The Position

SUGARED + BRONZED is hiring a site superintendent to run day-to-day field operations on a commercial retail build-out in California. The superintendent is the company’s eyes, ears, and authority on site: responsible for keeping the project on schedule, holding subcontractors to quality and safety standards, keeping the site clean and inspection-ready at all times, and documenting progress daily. This is a hands-on role for someone who takes ownership of a job site — not a desk position.

Requirements

5+ years of commercial construction experience, including prior experience as a superintendent, assistant superintendent, or foreman on commercial or retail build-out projects.
Proven ability to manage multiple subcontractors and hold trades to schedule.
Ability to read and interpret construction plans, specifications, and shop drawings.
Comfortable with daily digital reporting — photos, logs, and email/text communication from the field.
California’s Cal/OSHA standards go beyond federal OSHA.
Cal/OSHA supervisor training — completion of construction supervisor safety training covering the Title 8 California Code of Regulations, including the Cal/OSHA supplement (federal OSHA cards alone are not sufficient in California).
OSHA 30-hour construction card, current.
Ability to serve as the site’s designated Cal/OSHA “competent person” — trained and able to identify hazards and empowered to stop work and impose corrective measures, with documented training in the areas relevant to this project (fall protection, scaffolds, excavation, and/or confined spaces as applicable).
Working knowledge of California heat illness prevention requirements (T8 §3395): water, shade, high-heat procedures, and monitoring.
First aid / CPR certification, current.
Valid driver’s license with a clean, insurable driving record.

Nice To Haves

Bachelor’s degree in construction management or a related field preferred, not required; equivalent field experience accepted.
Certifications such as NCCER Superintendent Certification or CCM (Certified Construction Manager) are a plus.

Responsibilities

Oversee all on-site construction, build-out, and installation activities from mobilization through punch list and turnover.
Manage daily operations of subcontractors, vendors, and suppliers by scheduling trades, sequencing work, resolving conflicts, and enforcing project schedules and quality standards.
Conduct regular site inspections to ensure compliance with project plans, applicable codes, regulations, and company standards.
Communicate promptly with company representatives regarding any issues, delays, or changes that may impact the project timeline or budget.
Maintain site cleanliness and organization.
Complete and submit a daily site log with photographic documentation of progress, manpower, deliveries, weather, and project issues or delays; all logs and photos are company property.
Manage all subcontractor and vendor RFIs by logging, routing to the appropriate architect, engineer, or company representative, tracking to resolution, and maintaining an up-to-date RFI log.
Maintain organized records of inspections, deliveries, and change directives for weekly review.
