Job Description

Superintendent – Commercial Interiors | NYC General Contractor | Full-Time


? New York City, NY | On-Site | $130,000–$180,000 + Benefits + Project-Based Incentives


A well-established NYC General Contractor — nearly 40 years in business, family-run, and still growing — is looking for a Superintendent to take full field ownership of their next wave of projects. Their portfolio spans high-profile interior builds across commercial, retail, hospitality, healthcare, and institutional sectors, with some ground-up work as well, though interiors remain the core focus. They're known in the market for precision delivery and long-term repeat client relationships. This is a 100+ person GC/CM firm with a steady, primarily interior-focused pipeline.


The core of 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 rather than buried under 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 projects — 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

✔ Background with a GC, construction manager, 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 — we'll support the right candidate through it if needed)

✔ 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 — you'll never be 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 40 years in NYC, family-run, and still growing — real stability in an industry that doesn't always offer it

⭐ Broad, steady pipeline across office, retail, hospitality, healthcare — with some ground-up work too — so there's no downtime between projects

⭐ Genuine on-site autonomy — this contractor trusts its Supers to run their jobs

⭐ A collaborative project team model (Account Exec, Estimator, PM, Assistant PM, and Super) so you're never carrying a job alone

⭐ A real path into Senior Superintendent or Project Leadership as the company grows
