Senior Superintendent - Heavy Civil Concrete Infrastructure Project

$180k - $250k per year
Full-time

Canterra Group

Senior Superintendent – Heavy Civil Concrete Infrastructure Project
Location: Vancouver Island, BC | Night Shift Project
Employment Type: Full-Time | Permanent
Compensation: $175,000 – $250,000 base + bonus + benefits + travel support

About the Opportunity

This is an opportunity to join one of Canada’s leading heavy civil contractors on a major infrastructure project on Vancouver Island.

We are seeking an experienced Senior Superintendent with a strong background delivering large-scale heavy civil concrete projects. This role is ideal for a proven field leader with deep expertise in concrete structures, complex form work operations, sequencing, and managing large self-perform construction teams within challenging infrastructure environments.

The project involves significant structural concrete scopes and overnight operations, requiring a Superintendent who is highly organized, safety-focused, and experienced managing complex civil construction activities under demanding schedules.

The company is recognized for:

  • Landmark infrastructure and heavy civil projects across Canada
  • Complex bridge, transit, marine, and concrete structure construction
  • Strong self-perform construction capabilities
  • Long-term project backlog and financial stability
  • High-performing operational leadership and field teams

This is a rare opportunity to play a leadership role on a marquee infrastructure assignment while being part of one of the industry's most respected heavy civil construction organizations.

The Role

As the Senior Superintendent, you will lead all field operations related to major concrete and civil construction activities on a large-scale infrastructure project.

You will oversee Superintendents, General Foremen, subcontractors, and field crews while ensuring all work is executed safely, efficiently, and in alignment with schedule, quality, and productivity targets.

This role requires a strong technical understanding of heavy civil concrete construction, including complex form work systems, structural sequencing, crane coordination, pours, and large crew management.

The position is based on Vancouver Island and involves overnight projects operations.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead all on-site construction activities for major heavy civil concrete scopes
  • Oversee structural concrete, form work, reinforcing steel, placement, and sequencing operations
  • Manage Superintendents, Foremen, subcontractors, and large self-perform field crews
  • Ensure projects are executed safely, efficiently, and in accordance with schedule milestones
  • Coordinate construction logistics, crane activities, equipment, manpower, and subcontractor scheduling
  • Drive productivity, quality control, and field execution performance
  • Lead daily planning meetings, safety meetings, and coordination sessions
  • Monitor project progress and proactively resolve construction challenges
  • Collaborate closely with Project Managers, engineers, and operations leadership
  • Ensure compliance with project specifications, drawings, and safety regulations
  • Support schedule planning, look-ahead coordination, and recovery planning when required
  • Maintain strong communication with clients, consultants, and project stakeholders

Who You Are

  • 10+ years of Superintendent experience within heavy civil construction
  • Strong experience delivering:
    • Large-scale structural concrete projects
    • Heavy civil infrastructure projects
    • Complex concrete form work operations
    • Bridges, marine, transit, or major infrastructure assignments
  • Proven ability to lead large crews and complex field operations
  • Strong understanding of concrete sequencing, structural coordination, and heavy civil construction methodologies
  • Experience working on technically demanding, schedule-driven projects
  • Strong leadership, communication, and problem-solving abilities
  • Safety-focused with a strong understanding of BC construction safety standards
  • Comfortable working overnight shifts and demanding project schedules
  • Highly organized, accountable, and solutions-oriented
  • Engineering or technical construction background is considered an asset

Why This Role Stands Out

Major Infrastructure Project – Lead a marquee heavy civil project on Vancouver Island

High-Profile Concrete Work – Be directly involved in large-scale structural concrete and form work operations

Exceptional Compensation – Highly competitive salary, bonus potential, benefits, and project support

Industry-Leading Contractor – Join a nationally recognized heavy civil construction organization

Leadership Opportunity – Play a senior leadership role on a technically complex project

Long-Term Stability – Strong project backlog and future career growth opportunities within the organization

Confidential Inquiry

We understand that many accomplished Senior Superintendents are not actively applying to job postings.

If you are open to a confidential discussion regarding this opportunity, compensation structure, project details, or how this role compares to your current position, we would welcome the conversation.
