Job Description

**About the Role**


Messer Construction is looking for an experienced Wood Framing Superintendent to lead jobsite operations from pre-construction through project closeout. This is a hands-on leadership role where you'll own the site — managing people, schedule, materials, equipment, and safety every single day.


If you're a communicator first and a builder second, you'll fit right in.


---


**What You'll Be Responsible For**


- Leading all field operations including layout, framing, and punch completion

- Assigning and communicating daily and weekly tasks to subcontractors and crew

- Walking the jobsite multiple times daily to inspect work quality and safety

- Reviewing plans, RFIs, ASIs, and submittals ahead of each phase

- Maintaining daily documentation in Fieldwire (equipment logs, production percentages, daily reports)

- Attending and leading pre-construction and subcontractor coordination meetings

- Submitting RFCs and maintaining ongoing email communication with the GC

- Managing material and equipment inventory throughout the project lifecycle

- Conducting weekly Toolbox Safety Talks

- Planning one day and one week ahead — always


---


**What We're Looking For**


- 5–10 years of experience in wood framing or residential/commercial construction

- Strong knowledge of framing industry standards (floor plans, wall sections, ATS, holddowns, etc.)

- Proven ability to lead subcontractors and hold crews accountable

- Excellent communication skills — written and verbal

- Comfortable with jobsite technology (Fieldwire experience a plus)

- A leader who sets the standard, not just follows it


---


**Why Messer Construction**


- Consistent work with a company that values process and professionalism

- Collaborative team with General Superintendent and Project Manager support

- Clear expectations, real accountability, and room to grow
