About The Position

A self-performing heavy civil general contractor with a large water and wastewater treatment plant portfolio across the Southeast is adding a Superintendent to its Civil and Environmental division. This is a self-perform shop: the company runs its own concrete crews, heavy equipment operators, pipe crews and electricians rather than subcontracting the physical work. You will coordinate the planning, scheduling and construction of treatment plant projects alongside the Project Manager and General Superintendent, and own safety, schedule, budget and quality in the field.
