Gregory Construction
Louisville, KY Full Time
POSTED ON 7/25/2026

Project Superintendent – Heavy Civil & Mission Critical Projects
Company: Gregory Construction

Gregory Construction, a faith-driven and nationally recognized leader in heavy civil construction, is seeking a seasoned Project Superintendent to take full ownership of field operations on complex, high-impact projects. This role is built for a hands-on leader who thrives in the field, takes pride in delivering work the right way, and is fully committed to going where the work is.

Travel is a core requirement of this role. Projects are located across the Southwest, Southeast, and Mid-Atlantic regions. Assignments are based on business needs—not geographic preference—so flexibility and a willingness to travel extensively (and for extended durations) are essential to success. This is not a home-based position.

What You’ll Do

  • Take complete responsibility for day-to-day field operations, leading crews and subcontractors to deliver safe, efficient, and high-quality work.
  • Drive project execution by owning the schedule, sequencing, and manpower planning in coordination with Project Management.
  • Champion a culture of safety by actively enforcing site-specific plans and holding teams accountable to Gregory’s standards.
  • Maintain a constant presence in the field—monitoring productivity, resolving issues in real time, and ensuring work is installed correctly the first time.
  • Oversee jobsite logistics, equipment coordination, and material flow to keep projects moving without disruption.
  • Manage and review critical field documentation including daily reports, production tracking, change orders, and T&M work.
  • Serve as the primary on-site leader and point of contact for clients, inspectors, and engineers.
  • Build, mentor, and develop field teams while reinforcing Gregory’s core values: Safety, Integrity, Excellence, Communication, and Determination.

What You Bring

  • 7 years of proven experience leading field operations in heavy civil construction; mission critical project experience is a strong plus.
  • A leadership style grounded in accountability, urgency, and field presence—not from behind a desk.
  • Strong technical understanding of sitework, underground utilities, grading, paving, and equipment utilization.
  • Ability to read plans, anticipate challenges, and proactively solve problems to keep work on track.
  • Experience with construction technology (Procore, Bluebeam, PlanGrid, or similar tools).
  • OSHA 30 certification required; CPR/First Aid preferred.
  • High school diploma required; construction-related degree preferred.

What Sets You Apart

  • You’re willing to go where the work is—without hesitation—and stay as long as the project requires.
  • You take ownership of your jobsite and treat every project like it’s your own.
  • You lead from the front, earning respect through action, consistency, and decision-making in the field.

Why Gregory Construction

  • Competitive compensation package including health, dental, PTO, and 401(k) with company match.
  • Opportunity to lead challenging, high-profile projects across multiple regions.
  • A values-driven culture that invests in its people and promotes long-term career growth.
