About the Role
Professional Services Construction Inc. is hiring a Multifamily Reconstruction Superintendent to lead occupied multifamily rehab and renovation projects across Southern California. You will run the field - directing subcontractors, controlling schedule, enforcing quality and safety, and protecting residents and property while units, common areas, and exteriors are being rebuilt around them.
This role is best suited for a superintendent who has worked in occupied environments and understands the difference between ground-up and reconstruction: tighter logistics, resident communication, more coordination, and zero tolerance for surprises.
Key Responsibilities
• Run the jobsite: Provide day-to-day field leadership across multiple buildings or unit phases. Maintain order, productivity, and a professional jobsite.
• Schedule control: Build and maintain three-week lookaheads. Sequence trades around occupied units, tenant move-outs/move-ins, and property operations. Hit milestones.
• Subcontractor management: Direct subs daily - verify manpower, monitor production, enforce scope, and hold them accountable for quality, safety, and cleanliness.
• Quality control: Inspect work in progress and at completion. Maintain QC checklists, identify deficiencies early, and ensure work meets specs, plans, and property standards.
• Safety: Enforce OSHA and company safety requirements. Conduct toolbox talks, daily safety checks, and weekly walks. Address hazards immediately.
• Resident & property coordination: Coordinate with on-site property management on access, notices, parking, noise, work hours, and resident concerns. Keep occupied buildings clean and safe at all times.
• Documentation: Maintain daily reports, photo logs, delivery logs, and inspection records in Smartsheet (or company platform). Submit accurate, on-time reporting to the PM.
• RFIs, submittals & changes: Identify field issues early, generate RFIs, support submittal review, and flag any change-order conditions to the PM with documentation.
• Inspections & sign-offs: Schedule and walk municipal, third-party, and property-management inspections. Drive units to completion and resident-ready turnover.
• Punch & closeout: Manage punch lists, final walks, warranty items, and closeout documentation.
Required Qualifications
• 10+ years of superintendent experience in multifamily reconstruction, occupied renovation, capital improvements, or interior/exterior multifamily rehab.
• Demonstrated experience working in occupied properties with active residents.
• Strong knowledge of multifamily building systems - framing, drywall, paint, waterproofing, cabinetry, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, roofing, and exterior envelope.
• Proven ability to manage multiple subcontractors and trades simultaneously.
• Proficient with Smartsheet, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Word, and basic plan-reading software (Bluebeam or equivalent).
• Solid written and verbal communication skills - comfortable interacting with property managers, residents, owners, inspectors, and subcontractors.
• Valid driver's license and reliable vehicle; willing to travel daily between Orange County and project sites in Los Angeles or Ventura County.
• OSHA 10 minimum (OSHA 30 preferred).
Preferred / Plus
• Bilingual English/Spanish - strongly preferred for crew communication.
• Experience with insurance-restoration workflows is a plus, but not required.
• Experience with Procore, Sage, or similar construction management platforms.
• Knowledge of California prevailing-wage requirements.
• First Aid / CPR certification.
Work Schedule & Location
This is a full-time, field-based role. Primary work is in Orange County, with regular assignments in Los Angeles and Ventura Counties depending on the active project. Hours align with construction industry norms; early starts, occasional weekend coverage, and after-hours coordination with property management may be required to meet project demands.
Compensation & Benefits
• Competitive salary based on experience.
• Vehicle allowance or mileage reimbursement for project travel.
• Paid time off and standard company holidays.
• Health benefits available per company plan.
• Long-term opportunity with a growing Southern California multifamily contractor.
