About The Position

Roncelli is seeking an experienced Superintendent to lead onsite construction operations for healthcare projects in active and occupied environments. The role provides overall field leadership and execution for assigned projects, which may include new medical facilities, additions, renovations in occupied hospitals and outpatient settings, infrastructure upgrades, equipment installations, clinical-space improvements, and utility shutdown or tie-in work. The Superintendent works closely with Project Management, Safety, hospital facilities teams, infection-prevention personnel, clinical stakeholders, design partners, subcontractors, and vendors to deliver work safely, with high quality, on schedule, and with minimal disruption to patients, staff, visitors, and facility operations. This is an onsite, field-based position requiring daily presence at assigned healthcare project sites. Travel to other project locations and occasional travel to Roncelli’s Sterling Heights headquarters may be required. Evening, overnight, weekend, or other off-shift work may be necessary for shutdowns, clinical operations, commissioning, and facility requirements. The position operates primarily on active healthcare construction sites, including occupied hospitals, outpatient facilities, laboratories, medical offices, and areas adjacent to patient care. Work may involve electrical and mechanical hazards, noise, dust, temporary barriers, infection-control measures, and varying indoor and outdoor conditions. Strict compliance with safety, infection-control, patient-protection, and facility rules is mandatory. Applicants must be currently authorized to work in the United States; the company does not provide or assume employment visa sponsorship for this position.
