About Liaison Landscapes:

Liaison Landscapes is an award-winning San Francisco Bay Area design-build firm that specializes in high-end residential projects! With both highly-skilled design and specialized construction teams, Liaison has set itself apart as a standout company in the industry. We greatly value our employees and offer exciting opportunities for growth and development.

Job Summary:

We are seeking a seasoned and results-driven Landscape Construction Superintendent with significant, hands-on experience leading complex, high-end landscape construction projects from groundbreaking to final walk-through. This is not an entry-level or general foreman position, we require a candidate with a demonstrated track record of successfully managing large-scale landscape construction operations, skilled crews, and demanding project timelines. The ideal candidate brings deep technical expertise in all facets of landscape construction, exceptional leadership capability, and the ability to deliver exceptional results on time and within budget.

Responsibilities:

• Oversee all aspects of landscape construction projects, including scheduling, budgeting, and quality control.
• Read and interpret construction plans, specifications, and installation instructions.
• Manage and coordinate subcontractors and crews, ensuring efficient workflow and adherence to project specifications.
• Identify and propose change orders, including labor and material estimates
• Develop and maintain project schedules, tracking progress and making necessary adjustments to ensure timely completion.
• Manage project budgets, track expenses, and ensure projects are completed within budget.
• Enforce safety regulations and ensure a safe working environment for all employees and subcontractors.
• Communicate effectively with clients, designers, and others involved in the project.
• Proactively identify and resolve potential project issues and challenges.
• Maintain accurate project documentation, including daily reports, change orders, and meeting minutes.
• Procure materials and equipment as needed.
• Conduct regular site inspections to ensure quality control and adherence to project plans.
• Mentor and train crew members.

Qualifications:

• Minimum of 10 years of hands-on experience in landscape construction, with at least 5 years in a Superintendent or senior supervisory role — experience as a Lead Foreman alone does not meet this requirement.
• Expert-level knowledge of landscape construction techniques, materials, equipment, and installation methods, including hardscape, irrigation, grading, planting, and drainage systems.
• Demonstrated ability to independently manage multiple high-value construction projects simultaneously, maintaining quality standards and meeting deadlines without close oversight.
• Excellent leadership, communication, and interpersonal skills.
• Strong problem-solving and decision-making abilities.
• Proficient in reading and interpreting blueprints and specifications.
• Knowledge of safety regulations and OSHA requirements.
• Valid driver's license with a clean driving record.
• Proficient in construction management applications and software; experience with project scheduling tools is strongly preferred.
• Ability to comply with the company's drug-free workplace policy
