Traveling Retail Construction Superintendent

Powerhouse Retail Services LLC • Atlanta, GA

7d • $104,000 • Onsite

About The Position

If you’re ready to lead complex, fast-paced projects across the country and accelerate your career in construction leadership, this role puts you in the driver’s seat. At Powerhouse, our Traveling Superintendents don’t just manage job sites, they own project execution from start to finish while building the experience that shapes future leaders. You won’t be stuck in one place or one type of project. This role is built for individuals who want variety, responsibility, and real growth. You will travel nationwide, spending extended time (10–14 weeks) leading projects in different markets, take ownership of high-visibility retail and commercial renovations, gain hands-on leadership experience early in your career, and be supported by a team that understands the demands of the field. This is a role for individuals who want more than incremental growth. You will gain the experience, exposure, and responsibility that prepares you for long-term leadership in construction. If you’re ready to take ownership, travel the country, and build projects that make an impact, Powerhouse would like to connect.
