Residential Superintendent

Job Summary

Senior Superintendent – Custom Homes, Additions & Remodels

Hutton Building Company | Cary, NC (Triangle area) | Full-time Compensation:

$75,000–$105,000 per year

Is this you?

• Are you a construction junkie who stays up too late watching videos on the best waterproofing details?
• Do you slow down past other builders' jobs just to see how they flashed the windows?
• Does a clean, organized site make you happier than it probably should?
• Have you ever sketched a better detail on a scrap of 2x4 because you knew there was a smarter way to build it?

And when the work gets serious:

• Are you the person on site everyone turns to when the plans don't match what's in front of them?
• Do you see problems three weeks out and fix them before anyone else knows they existed?
• Do you run a job's budget and schedule like it's your own money and your own name on the sign?
• Do subs send you their best crew because your sites are ready, your word is good, and you treat them like partners?
• Can you tell a sub or a client something they don't want to hear, hold the standard, and still have the relationship the next morning?
• Are you organized enough that nobody ever has to chase you for an update?
• Do you want to work for a tech-forward, systems-driven builder instead of one run off a whiteboard and a pile of texts?

If you're nodding, keep reading.
