The Commercial Interiors Construction Superintendent oversees day‑to‑day field operations for tenant improvement and build‑out projects, with a primary focus on retail, corporate office, and hospitality/restaurant environments. The role emphasizes onsite leadership—safety, quality, schedule execution, and trade coordination—rather than document control or commercial administration. Projects often involve occupied buildings, fast‑track schedules, brand standards, and stringent health/sanitation or building rules.

Key Responsibilities

Lead daily onsite operations and coordinate all subcontractor activities to maintain safety, quality, and schedule for retail, corporate office, and hospitality/restaurant interiors.

Conduct daily site walks; identify and resolve field issues; document progress with photos, noting brand‑standard and finish quality compliance.

Enforce site safety plan; conduct daily/weekly safety inspections and toolbox talks; adapt plans for occupied spaces and public‑facing retail areas.

Implement the project schedule in the field, with 1–3 week look‑aheads tailored to tenant move‑in dates, grand openings, and phased turnovers.

Review drawings and specifications; ensure installations align with contract documents, brand guidelines, health department requirements (for restaurants), and the latest bulletins/addenda.

Manage RFIs from the field: surface conflicts (e.g., MEP coordination in tight ceiling plenum typical of interiors, kitchen equipment rough‑ins), elevate to PM/PE for formal submission, and implement responses.

Coordinate deliveries, laydown, and logistics with building/property management; plan off‑hours work common in corporate/retail settings; maintain clean, safe egress for public/tenants.

Lead daily huddles and weekly trade coordination meetings; document action items and follow up with trades and vendors (e.g., millwork, signage, FF&E, kitchen equipment).

Perform quality control checks with emphasis on high‑visibility finishes, millwork alignment, lighting aiming, and equipment start‑up; coordinate punch lists with design team and PM.

Support closeout: oversee completion of punch list, brand compliance checks, attic stock delivery, O&M training scheduling (including kitchen equipment), and as‑built markups.

Track manpower, daily reports, deliveries, inspections, and equipment start‑ups; provide concise field updates to the Project Manager.

Verify work in place to support subcontractor pay apps; flag field‑driven changes (e.g., unforeseen conditions in existing cores, utility relocations) for PM pricing/processing.

Coordinate inspections and sign‑offs (building, fire, health department for restaurants) and required special inspections.

Mentor field staff (Assistant Superintendent/Field Engineer) as assigned.

Professional Qualifications & Experience

3–7 years of field experience in commercial interiors/tenant improvement, specifically across retail, corporate office, and hospitality/restaurant projects.

Demonstrated ability to read drawings/specs and manage interiors means and methods, including MEP coordination, kitchen equipment rough‑ins, and high‑finish sequencing.

Familiarity with building codes, ADA, health department and food service requirements (for restaurants), and logistics in occupied commercial properties.

High school diploma or equivalent required; trade school or relevant technical coursework a plus.

Key Skills & Knowledge

Strong field coordination, communication, and problem‑solving skills tailored to fast‑track, brand‑driven interiors.

Proficient with construction daily reporting tools; basic proficiency in Microsoft Office (Outlook, Excel) and plan viewing/field logs in Procore.

Working knowledge of short‑interval scheduling and look‑ahead planning; Microsoft Project familiarity helpful.

Commitment to site safety, finish quality, brand standards, and professional subcontractor/client relations in occupied environments.
