Gais Construction

Are you tired of being treated like just another number on a massive corporate spreadsheet? Do you want to work for a growing company where the leadership actually knows your name, values your weekends, and rewards your hard work on the spot?

Welcome to Gais Construction.

We are a thriving, family-owned commercial contractor in Charlotte, and when we say we treat our employees better than family, we actually mean it. Our incredibly low turnover rate is proof. We are growing fast, expanding our footprint across the Carolinas, and looking for a dedicated Construction Supervisor who wants to grow with us—not just punch a clock.

What’s In It For You? (Why We’re Different)

We know you have choices. Here is how Gais Construction takes care of the people who take care of our job sites:

• Rest & Relaxation from Day 1: No waiting periods. Get 13 days of Paid Time Off (PTO) starting on your very first day.
• Real Performance Bonuses: We don’t make you wait until the end of the year. Get paid out throughout the lifecycle of a project based on hit milestones and project reviews.
• Secure Your Future: A 401(k) with up to a 5% company match to help you build long-term wealth.
• Full Health Coverage: Comprehensive Medical, Dental, and Vision insurance packages to keep you and your family healthy.
• The "Better Than Family" Culture: We run a tight-knit, supportive environment. We back our supervisors up, give them the tools they need to succeed, and maintain a low-stress, high-reward workplace.

What You’ll Do (The Role)

As our Commercial Construction Supervisor, you will be the captain of the job site. You’ll be running tight, efficient commercial projects by managing anywhere from 1 to 5 subcontractors at a given time.

Your daily responsibilities will include:

• Site Management: Oversee and coordinate 1–5 subcontractors on-site, ensuring safety, quality control, and schedule compliance.
• Blueprint & Code Mastery: Read, interpret, and execute architectural blueprints flawlessly while keeping projects fully compliant with local building codes.
• Scheduling: Proactively schedule subs as needed to eliminate downtime and keep the project moving forward.
• Tech-Savvy Logging: Maintain accurate daily construction logs, photos, and updates using our mobile project management app.
• Clear Communication: Seamlessly bridge the gap between the field and the office via prompt emails and phone calls.

What We’re Looking For (Job Requirements)

We need someone who is organized, collaborative, and ready to take ownership of their site.

• Experience: 2 years of experience as a Construction Supervisor/Foreman, plus at least 1 year of hands-on commercial construction experience.
• Skills: Strong blueprint reading skills and familiarity with commercial building codes are non-negotiable.
• Mobility: Must have a valid driver’s license and your own reliable transportation to get to and from local Charlotte job sites.
• Travel Flex (A Big Plus): While the bulk of our work is around Charlotte, a willingness to manage projects out of town (within the Carolinas) is a huge plus and opens the door for higher bonus potential!

We are a full-service, commercial contractor, that covers both North & South Carolina and Georgia, specializing in up-fits, remodels and ground-ups. Based in the Charlotte/Piedmont area of North Carolina, Gais Construction built its initial reputation as a high-end, residential custom builder with a keen sense for attention to details and quality finishing. The firm established a commercial division in 1990, when homeowner clients, who also had businesses or franchises of their own, desired the same level of attention, focus and service in the project management of their business operation expansions. By turning to Gais for their commercial needs with exemplary results, these clients soon were telling others. Today, Gais Construction focuses entirely on setting standards of excellence in the commercial arena, with extensive experience in restaurants and breweries. We also have experience in building offices, warehouses, industrial, and retail.
