Superintendent – Civil Construction

Ketchikan, AK

Join a well-established Pacific Northwest general contractor and lead the field execution of large-scale civil and infrastructure projects throughout Southeast Alaska.

This role is built for a civil construction leader who understands how to move dirt, manage production, and coordinate the crews, equipment, materials, and subcontractors required to deliver complex work valued at $20 million or more. You will oversee projects involving earthwork, grading, underground utilities, drainage, concrete, roadwork, and related site infrastructure from mobilization through closeout.

As the on-site civil leader, you will plan work sequences, track quantities and production, anticipate site and weather challenges, and keep field operations moving safely and efficiently. This is an ideal opportunity for a hands-on Superintendent who enjoys solving constructability challenges, leading self-perform and subcontracted work, and building durable infrastructure in a demanding Alaska environment.

  • Plan and coordinate earthwork, grading, utilities, drainage, concrete, roadwork, and related scopes.
  • Direct field crews, operators, subcontractors, equipment utilization, material deliveries, and site access.
  • Review civil plans, specifications, survey information, submittals, and contract documents for constructability and field execution.
  • Build short-term work plans and drive production against the project schedule, quantities, and cost goals.
  • Enforce safety requirements for heavy equipment, underground work, traffic control, and active civil job sites.
  • Maintain accurate daily reports, manpower and equipment records, production tracking, and field documentation.

Superintendent Qualifications:

  • 5 years of Superintendent experience in civil, site development, utility, or infrastructure construction with a general contractor.
  • Experience leading civil projects valued at $20 million or more.
  • Strong working knowledge of earthwork, underground utilities, grading, drainage, concrete, civil sequencing, and heavy equipment operations.
  • Strong leadership, communication, production planning, organization, and field problem-solving skills.
  • Associate degree in Construction Management or a related field preferred, or equivalent civil construction experience.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite; bilingual skills are a plus.
