About the Role

The Superintendent runs Triumph's roofing and waterproofing work in the field, owning site operations and leading foremen and crews. This role is crucial for projects involving both roofing and waterproofing, serving as a point person for complex details and sequences. The Superintendent sets safety standards, identifies quality issues proactively, and mentors junior staff, ensuring clean sites, adherence to schedules, and professional site supervision.

Responsibilities

Direct foremen and crews day to day, assigning work, setting the pace, and confirming crews have what they need to be productive
Own safety on site, running tailgate meetings, completing inspections, correcting unsafe work on the spot, and leading incident investigations
Partner with the Project Manager on schedule, manpower, and sequencing, and flag slippage before it costs the job
Inspect installed work against drawings, specifications, and manufacturer requirements, and reject work that does not meet them
Coordinate with general contractors, consultants, and other trades on site logistics, access, hoisting, and start dates
Confirm materials, equipment, and rentals are on site when needed, working with the Project Manager and purchasing
Document daily reports, photos, deficiency lists, and field measurements so the project record holds up in a claim
Mentor foremen and less experienced superintendents, and set the standard for how Triumph runs a site
Support close out by walking the project with the consultant, driving deficiencies to completion, and confirming warranty documentation is in order
Run multiple active roofing and waterproofing sites at the same time, or lead the single largest project when the work calls for it

Requirements

10+ years in the field on commercial roofing and waterproofing projects, including 5+ years as a Superintendent or Foreman running crews
Hands on knowledge of both roofing assemblies (low slope and steep slope) and waterproofing systems (below grade, plaza deck, traffic coatings)
Current Working at Heights, WHMIS, First Aid and CPR, and JHSC Level 1 and 2 certification
Able to read architectural and structural drawings, specifications, and shop drawings, and confirm the work in the field matches them
Comfortable with digital field tools (Procore, site reporting apps, MS Office)
Hold a valid Ontario driver's licence
Willingness to travel across the GTA and occasionally out of town
You have the presence to run a site, so crews and general contractors both take you seriously
Other superintendents and foremen already come to you when something on their site goes sideways
You catch a detail problem on the roof before it turns into a warranty call two years later
You hold the safety line when the schedule is tight, and you do not negotiate on it
You tell your Project Manager the bad news early rather than late, and you bring a plan with it
