Balfour Beatty is seeking a Superintendent in Hermiston/Umatilla, Oregon. The Superintendent is responsible for all field operations, including coordinating subcontractor work and overseeing all project field activities. This includes implementing the Safety/Zero Harm program, supervising subcontractor and self-performed construction work, and helping ensure the project is completed on time, within budget, and in accordance with company policies and procedures. The Superintendent shares responsibility with the project manager for developing the project budget, participates actively in preconstruction, and manages and mentors assistant superintendents and other field personnel. The role requires 30 hours of OSHA training once every four years, or maintenance of STS certification. The role contributes to project financial management and preconstruction planning, including reviewing progress and cost reports, schedules, project estimates, cost-control systems, general conditions, project planning and phasing, and buyout strategy. The Superintendent communicates expectations for schedules, methods, policies, permits, safety, sustainability, quality control, and performance standards, and participates in subcontract scope development and bid meetings. During project startup and delivery, the Superintendent understands specifications, contract documents, and quality requirements; advises on methods, materials, schedules, and procedures; and ensures testing requirements are met and documented. The role also oversees site security, safety, sustainability, EEO, risk management, training, and quality-control programs; manages employee and subcontractor performance issues; reviews and approves bills and requisitions; facilitates progress and safety meetings; keeps owners and architects informed; and ensures successful project closeout. The Superintendent builds effective relationships with customers, design teams, subcontractors, suppliers, and user groups, and may make presentations to pursue new business opportunities. The role promotes company values and vision, develops employees through coaching, development plans, and feedback, negotiates with internal and external stakeholders, and demonstrates integrity and commitment to customer expectations. Most work takes place at construction job sites, where appropriate personal protective equipment is required. Project teams may need to relocate to other geographic work locations as necessary.
