Our client is a leading multi-family developer with a secured seven-year project pipeline supported by an impressive landbank and multiple planned communities across Calgary. Due to ongoing growth, they are seeking an experienced Site Superintendent to oversee the construction of 4-6 storey wood-frame residential buildings, including projects with integrated parkade structures.

This role is ideal for a hands-on construction leader who understands the nuances of wood-frame sequencing, trade coordination, and quality control—and who wants long-term stability with a reputable builder.

• Oversee excavation, foundation, parkade, framing, building envelope, and interior finishing phases.

• Conduct regular site meetings, safety inspections, and progress reviews.

• Maintain accurate documentation, including site reports, RFIs, daily logs, and deficiency lists.

• Ensure site compliance with building codes, company standards, and OH&S regulations.

• Work closely with the Project Manager to provide updates, identify risks, and resolve site challenges.

Qualifications & Experience

• 7+ years of construction experience, including several years as a Superintendent or Senior Foreman.

• Proven experience delivering 4-6 storey wood-frame multi-family buildings, ideally with parkade components.

• Strong ability to read drawings, manage site sequencing, and coordinate trades.

• Excellent leadership presence, firm but fair, with a focus on respect, teamwork, and accountability.

• Strong safety mindset; COR or safety training certifications are an asset.

• Experience with Procore (or similar construction management software) preferred.

What’s In It for You

• Join a stable, well-capitalized developer with a guaranteed multi-year project pipeline.

• Lead meaningful Calgary builds that shape communities.

• Competitive compensation package including salary, benefits, and bonus structure.

• Opportunity to grow into larger, more complex builds as the pipeline continues.
