Travelling Commercial Superintendent - Contract

Are you a hands-on leader who knows how to
keep people organized, work moving, and details from falling through the cracks?
First Onsite is hiring several
Commercial Superintendents
to join our Travelling team for major projects in Saskatchewan.
These are
12-month temporary contracts
supporting large-scale construction and restoration work across three First Nations communities. You'll work alongside a full project team and be responsible for leading field staff, coordinating contractors and sub-trades, keeping work on track, and making sure safety documentation, reporting and timesheets are completed accurately.
Construction or restoration experience is a strong asset, but it isn't the only background we're looking for.
If you've successfully led teams in another fast-paced, hands-on environment and are organized, comfortable with technology and paperwork, and confident keeping people accountable, we'd like to hear from you.
This is a rotational travelling role, currently anticipated to be approximately
3-4 weeks on site followed by 7-10 days at home, working a
6-day work week
while on assignment. Required travel and accommodations are provided by First Onsite.
A DAY IN THE LIFE OF A COMMERCIAL SUPERINTENDENTAs a Commercial Superintendent, you're the person helping keep the day-to-day work on site moving. You'll provide direction to field staff, contractors and sub-trades, coordinate daily activities, monitor progress and step in when priorities change or challenges come up.
A big part of this job is also what happens behind the scenes. You'll stay on top of
safety documentation, reporting, timesheets and other required paperwork, while making sure work is being completed safely, efficiently and to the expected standard.
You'll work closely with the Commercial Operations Supervisor, Project Managers, Safety Advisors, Project Coordinators and other members of the project team. You'll need to communicate well, handle conflict professionally, solve problems without needing every step laid out for you, and be willing to get hands‑on when the job requires it.
