About Broadbridge
Broadbridge is a Cambridge-based developer-builder specializing in multifamily and single-family residential construction across Cambridge and the Greater Boston area. Founded three years ago, we are a lean, growth-oriented team that operates with the quality standards of a large firm and the accountability culture of a small one. We are entering a significant growth phase — five multifamily projects totaling approximately 60,000 SF are breaking ground this Spring— and we are building the team to match.
This is a ground-floor opportunity for an experienced superintendent who wants real ownership of the field, direct access to ownership, and a long-term home as the company scales. Broadbridge is the owner/developer for all of its projects and performs all of its construction management in-house, providing the opportunity for a dedicated and effective site supervisor to focus on completing projects efficiently and at a high quality, rather than interfacing with 3rd party clients.
The Role
The Site Superintendent is the primary field leader for 2–3 active multifamily projects simultaneously. You own the site — schedule, subcontractor coordination, quality, and safety — and serve as the day-to-day point of contact for trades, inspectors, and project managers. This is not a hybrid office role. You are on the ground, running the field, and accountable for on-time, on-budget delivery.
As our first dedicated superintendent hire, you will also help establish the field systems, standards, and processes that future hires will follow. The right person will grow into a senior field leadership role as we scale.
Core Responsibilities
Schedule & Sequencing
- Own and maintain the project schedule in Buildertrend and for all assigned projects
- Develop and issue weekly look-ahead schedules; coordinate sub sequencing to prevent gaps and conflicts
- Proactively identify schedule risks and escalate with proposed solutions
Subcontractor Management
- Direct day-to-day coordination of all trades on site
- Manage sub mobilization, handoffs between trades, and punch-list completion
- Hold subs accountable to scope, schedule, and quality standards
- Build and maintain strong trade partner relationships that support repeat project work
Quality & Inspections
- Execute phase-gate quality checklists at each construction milestone (foundation, framing, rough MEP, insulation/drywall, finishes)
- Coordinate and attend all municipal and third-party inspections
- Identify and resolve field issues and conflicts with architects, engineers, and PMs
Documentation & Reporting
- Complete daily logs in Buildertrend every working day: weather, crews, work completed, open issues, photos
- Log all RFIs, open items, and field questions in Buildertrend with assigned owners and due dates
- Support draw request documentation and lender site visits
Safety
- Enforce OSHA standards and company safety protocols on all sites
- Conduct weekly site safety reviews and maintain incident-free project records
What We're Looking For
Required
- 7+ years of field construction experience, with at least 4 years as a superintendent
- Demonstrated multifamily residential experience (10+ unit ground-up construction)
- Ability to read and interpret full construction document sets independently
- Deep familiarity with Cambridge and Greater Boston's permitting, inspection, and code environment
- Strong subcontractor management skills — you know how to get the best out of trades without burning relationships
- Experience with construction management software (Buildertrend, Procore, or equivalent)
- Valid MA driver's license and reliable transportation
- Extremely organized with high attention to detail
- Ability to lift +/- 50 pounds
- Ability to commute to job sites within 50 miles of Boston.
Strongly Preferred
- Experience working for a developer-builder or owner-builder (not just a GC subcontracting to owners)
- OSHA 30 certification
- Massachusetts Construction Supervisor License (CSL) — unrestricted
- History of managing multiple simultaneous projects or project phases
Who You Are
- A builder, not a paper-pusher — you are most comfortable and most effective on the ground
- Organized and consistent — your daily logs, look-ahead schedules, and checklists are always current
- Direct and accountable — you escalate issues early, own mistakes, and solve problems without drama
- Extremely detail-oriented – you want to make sure work is completed at a high standard.
- A culture-builder — you want to help establish how a growing company operates in the field, not just execute a playbook someone else wrote
