The Axel Group is partnering with a well-established commercial general contractor that is continuing to build out its field team across Pennsylvania and New Jersey, with a particularly strong need for experienced Superintendents throughout the Greater Philadelphia, Southeastern Pennsylvania, and South Jersey markets. We know this company and its leadership extremely well and have already made several successful placements with their team. They have a strong pipeline of current and upcoming work throughout the region and are looking to bring on Superintendents for the long term - not simply to staff one project and move on. Our client specializes in fast-paced commercial construction, including interior fit-outs, renovations, and ground-up projects across the retail, restaurant, banking, healthcare, sports/recreation, and broader commercial markets. Their portfolio includes work for recognizable national brands and institutions, with a large portion of their backlog coming from repeat clients that continue to rely on them across multiple locations. There is a significant amount of current and upcoming work throughout Southeastern Pennsylvania and the surrounding Philadelphia suburbs, along with continued activity across South and Central New Jersey. Project assignments are made with geography in mind, and the company makes a strong effort to keep its Superintendents working within a practical territory rather than unnecessarily moving them from one end of the region to another. This is an excellent opportunity for a sharp, reliable field leader who can take ownership of a project, manage subcontractors and schedules, stay ahead of day-to-day field operations, and keep fast-moving jobs progressing safely and efficiently. Commercial construction experience is required, with backgrounds in retail, restaurant, commercial interiors, renovations, banking, healthcare, or similar fast-paced environments being especially valuable.
