Job Overview

King Construction Services, Inc. is seeking an experienced Commercial Construction Superintendent to lead onsite field operations for complex commercial, federal, institutional, healthcare, school, and public-sector construction projects across coastal Maine.

Our work includes ground-up commercial construction, federal projects, institutional renovations, medical facilities, schools, Coast Guard/DHS-related work, Department of Interior / Acadia National Park projects, and other high-impact regional builds. Project sizes can range from approximately $500K to $40M, depending on scope.

This is a strong opportunity for a Superintendent who wants meaningful construction work, long-term stability, and the lifestyle benefits of coastal Maine.

King Construction Services, Inc. is a family-owned commercial general contractor based in Maine. We are known for high employee retention, a down-to-earth team culture, strong project execution, and a growing portfolio of commercial, federal, institutional, healthcare, education, and public-sector work.

Our projects are concentrated throughout coastal and Downeast Maine, including Ellsworth, Mount Desert Island / Acadia National Park, Machias, Calais, Eastport, Southwest Harbor, and surrounding regional markets. Most work is local or regional, and our team generally goes home at night.

• Coordinate subcontractors, field personnel, materials, equipment, inspections, and site logistics.
• Maintain aggressive schedules while protecting quality and safety standards.
• Read, interpret, and execute architectural drawings, specifications, schedules, RFIs, submittals, and project documents.
• Identify field conflicts early and resolve issues before they delay the project.
• Maintain accurate daily reports, field documentation, and project updates through Procore or related systems.
• Coordinate with project managers, ownership, subcontractors, vendors, clients, and inspectors.
• Keep the jobsite organized, productive, safe, and aligned with King Construction’s quality expectations.
