Construction Superintendent

Consistently managed over 30 homes at all times while constantly striving to improve quality, shorten build-cycle times, minimizing overhead, purchase orders and exceeding the customer’s expectations. In the 4 years I worked as a Superintendent I managed over 400 homes from start to finish which generated the company around $120 million in total revenue while I was still able to maintain around a 97% customer satisfaction rating with our homeowners that was conducted by J.D Power and Associates where I was recognized as being one of the top superintendents in the company several times.

Some of my responsibilities consisted of overseeing all daily field operations like scheduling, quality control, energy efficiency/building methods, coordinating subcontractors, verifying all options were installed correctly per the plans, job-site cleanliness, facilitating weekly progress and safety meetings, ensuring all required inspections were passed and documented while also mentoring and training new hires on company policies, procedures and best practices.

Also had the responsibility to manage the construction of two newly designed multi-family model homes which were both completed in roughly 35 working days from start to finish. I was also responsible for reducing the build cycle on this product by 15 working days per home at the start of the production which became one of the strictest build schedules in our division that ensured a greater profitability for each home that was built in this community.
