Job description

Industrial Field Superintendent

The Industrial Field Superintendent leads on-site construction activities for water & wastewater treatment plants, lift stations, related civil / process infrastructure, and other related industrial facilities and projects. This position ensures that all work-concrete, structural, mechanical, electrical, and process piping-is executed safely, efficiently, and to specification. Working hand-in-hand with the Project Manager and field crews, the Superintendent is responsible for translating design intent into built systems that operate reliably for decades. The role requires deep familiarity with heavy concrete structures, piping systems, equipment setting and alignment, and coordination with electrical / instrumentation trades. The Superintendent sets the tone for safety, quality, and teamwork, driving a culture of accountability and continuous improvement on every site.

  • Coordinate environmental compliance including erosion control, dewatering, and discharge permitting.
  • Quality & Technical Control

  • Verify correct installation of process piping materials (DIP, PVC, stainless, HDPE) and bolted or welded joints.
  • Witness startup, testing, and commissioning of mechanical and electrical systems alongside OEM reps.
  • Maintain redlines and as-builts reflecting actual field installation for owner turnover.
  • Communication & Coordination

  • Conduct daily huddle / coordination meetings with foremen and subcontractors to align manpower and sequencing.
  • Communicate proactively with Project Manager regarding schedule risks, material delays, and RFI responses.
  • Collaborate closely with municipalities, engineers, and inspectors to ensure code and specification compliance.
  • Maintain detailed daily reports tracking manpower, equipment hours, quantities placed, and safety observations.
  • Team & Culture

  • Mentor field engineers, foremen, and craftworkers; build a high-performing, cohesive field team.
  • Foster collaboration between self-perform crews and trade partners.
  • Model Journey's culture of humility, integrity, and service on every job site.

  • Proven leadership of self-perform concrete and piping crews.
  • Experience managing subcontractors in electrical, mechanical, and instrumentation trades.
  • Familiarity with startup, commissioning, and punch-list closure for process systems.
  • Knowledge, Skills & Abilities Needed

  • Deep understanding of water / wastewater treatment processes and the interaction of civil, mechanical, and electrical systems.
  • Ability to read and coordinate P&IDs, shop drawings, and structural details.
  • Strong planning and sequencing abilities for equipment installations, pipe runs, and shutdown coordination.
