New York City Metropolitan Area • Posted 4 days ago
Onsite Contract Construction

🏗️ Superintendent | Commercial Interiors | NYC General Contractor (Full-Time)


📍 New York City, NY · On-Site · 💰 $130,000 to $180,000 + Benefits + Project-Based Incentives


Run the jobs people actually see.


A well-established NYC General Contractor (nearly four decades in business, family-run, and still growing) is looking for a Superintendent to take full field ownership of its next wave of projects. The portfolio spans high-profile interiors across commercial, retail, hospitality, healthcare, and institutional work, with some ground-up too, though interiors are the core. This is a 100+ person GC/CM known for precision delivery and long-term repeat clients, with a steady, interior-focused pipeline.


The work is fast-moving, design-led interior construction, the kind of project where finish quality and sequencing actually matter, and where you’ll see your work featured, not buried behind a facade.


🏙️ The projects you’ll run

🏢 Corporate office fit-outs and full-floor renovations for name-brand tenants

🛍️ Retail flagship builds to exacting design and millwork standards

🍽️ Hospitality: restaurants, bars, and venues with tight sequencing and high finish demands

🏥 Healthcare and institutional interiors requiring precision coordination

🔧 Renovation and base-build work where interior coordination makes or breaks the schedule


🎯 What we’re looking for

  • Experience running commercial interior fit-outs, tenant improvements, or high-spec renovations as a Superintendent
  • A background with a GC, CM, or developer-side construction team in NYC
  • Comfort with fast-track sequencing, MEP coordination, and finish-intensive delivery
  • Working knowledge of NYC DOB requirements and inspections (DOB Superintendent License a plus, not a dealbreaker; they’ll support the right person through it)
  • A field leader trades want to work for, someone who sets the standard and keeps a job moving without cutting corners


🔨 What the role looks like

  • Own field operations from mobilization through final turnover
  • Drive sequencing, logistics, safety, and quality on fast-moving interior projects
  • Coordinate subcontractors, trades, vendors, and site personnel day to day
  • Manage MEP rough-in, finishes, and commissioning against tight schedules
  • Work directly with PMs, design teams, clients, and building management, so you’re never out of the loop
  • Handle permits and DOB compliance without losing momentum
  • Lead punch list, closeout, and handover to a consistently high standard


⭐ Why this role stands out

  • 🏛️ Nearly four decades in NYC, family-run, and still growing: real stability in an industry that doesn’t always offer it
  • 🔁 A broad, steady pipeline across office, retail, hospitality, and healthcare (plus some ground-up), so there’s no downtime between projects
  • 🤝 A genuine project-team model (Account Exec, Estimator, PM, Assistant PM, and Super), so you’re never carrying a job alone
  • 🦺 A real safety and quality culture: weekly toolbox meetings, daily trade reviews, and daily quality checks built into how they work, not bolted on
  • 📲 Modern field tools (Procore and digital daily logs), so less paperwork and more building
  • 🙌 Genuine on-site autonomy: this contractor trusts its Supers to run their jobs
  • 🚀 A real path into Senior Superintendent or project leadership as the company grows


👋 Interested?

Apply directly, or message me and I’ll walk you through the pipeline, culture, and what makes this a strong next move. I work closely with this team and can give you the full picture. Happy to have an informal chat first if you’re just weighing options.
