Stoa Group is hiring a Lead Superintendent to help lead the field execution for The Waters at Bartlett, ground-up multifamily community in Bartlett, TN

Our projects are large-scale, wood-frame multifamily communities developed, built, and operated by Stoa Group. As a vertically integrated company, we provide our field teams with a strong pipeline of work, dedicated preconstruction support, and clear career growth opportunities.


What You'll Do

As Lead Superintendent, you'll take ownership of the critical middle phases of construction, ensuring work progresses safely, efficiently, and according to schedule while maintaining the highest standards of quality.

  • Promote and enforce safe work practices throughout assigned project phases.
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and professional jobsite.
  • Identify and address safety concerns before they impact the project.
Quality
  • Own quality throughout the MEP, open wall, insulation, stairs, and railing phases.
  • Complete Procore phase inspections for assigned areas.
  • Create, coordinate, and close observations in Procore.
  • Ensure work complies with construction drawings, specifications, submittals, scopes of work, and Stoa quality standards.
Schedule Execution
  • Execute scheduled work within your assigned area of ownership.
  • Coordinate subcontractors to maintain production flow and sequencing.
  • Anticipate schedule risks, remove roadblocks, and communicate issues early.
  • Ensure materials are available to support upcoming work activities.
Field Coordination
  • Coordinate MEP trades, inspections, and related subcontractor work.
  • Manage MEP open wall as-built documentation.
  • Partner with the Lead Superintendent and Assistant Superintendent to maintain efficient workflow between construction phases.
  • Help keep multiple buildings progressing according to schedule.
Documentation
  • Maintain accurate field documentation within Procore.
  • Track inspections, observations, jobsite progress, and project activities.
  • Communicate project status, challenges, and solutions with the field and project management teams.

What We're Looking For
  • 4+ years of experience in multifamily, commercial, or residential construction
  • Experience coordinating subcontractors and managing active field operations
  • Strong understanding of MEP systems, open wall sequencing, inspections, and jobsite execution
  • Ability to read and interpret construction drawings, specifications, submittals, and scopes of work
  • Working knowledge of OSHA safety requirements and jobsite safety practices
  • Strong communication, organizational, and problem-solving skills
  • Experience with Procore or similar construction management software preferred
  • Ability to hold subcontractors accountable while maintaining productive working relationships
  • Self-motivated with a strong sense of ownership and accountability
