Superintendent Jobs in Alberta
A Construction Superintendent is responsible for overseeing all aspects of a building project, including managing workers, setting schedules, and ensuring that safety regulations and guidelines are adhered to. Superintendents are involved in every phase of the project, from planning and preparation to completion, making decisions on construction methods, determining labor requirements, and coordinating with architects, engineers, and contractors.
