Regional General Superintendent Mechanical and Structural, Critical Electrical, Soft Craft and Coatings, Underground and Utilities, Water Solutions Dallas, Texas Base salary up to $250,000 + performance bonus Workspire is partnering with an established industrial construction and specialty services contractor on a key field leadership hire for its Region build. This Regional General Superintendent role is built for a field leader who has already run major labor, moved crews and equipment across multiple jobs, built strong supers underneath them, tightened up production, and earned enough credibility with clients to help open doors when needed. Dallas is home base and the expectation is that this leader helps build the bench and field structure that can scale with the broader South over time. This is a true Regional General Superintendent opening with runway into broader service line responsibility over time. We are looking for the kind of field leader who has already run big labor, moved crews and equipment across multiple jobs, built strong supers underneath them, tightened up production, and earned enough credibility with clients to help open doors when needed. Dallas is the hub, Texas is the immediate battlefield, and the expectation is that this leader helps build the bench that can scale with the broader South over time. Mechanical and Structural has been identified as the biggest priority, with Soft Craft and other field service lanes close behind. This is not built for a pure GC coordinator. It is built for a hardhat leader from industrial self-perform, specialty contracting, or owner-direct environments who knows how to run work through people, not just meetings. What you’ll own • In your first 90 days, get your arms around the active work, near-term starts, labor gaps, safety exposure, schedule risk, and leadership bench, then put a real 30/60/90-day execution plan on the table., • Build and lead the field bench: recruit, dispatch, coach, and hold accountable superintendents, foremen, and craft leaders who can execute across multiple jobs without safety, quality, or production slipping., • Run labor like a regional engine, not a single jobsite. That means crew loading, manpower forecasting, equipment readiness, shifting resources where needed, and keeping top people working., • Tighten up the field cadence: project strategy, production tracking, job-cost reviews, constraint removal, recovery planning, and clear escalation before a bad month turns into a bad quarter., • Support preconstruction and pursuit work with real field judgment. Review labor assumptions, sequencing, constructability, staffing plans, and means and methods, and help the team turn good bids into work that can actually be won and executed., • Standardize how the work gets done in your lane. The expectation is not to reinvent the company’s system; it is to take the existing playbook, drive it hard, and make execution more consistent job after job., • Be visible in the field. Walk jobs, back the supers, coach the weak spots, protect the good people, and keep safety, productivity, and quality tied together every day. What we’re looking for • 15+ years in industrial construction, with real field progression and staying power. The baseline profile is someone who has spent meaningful time as a foreman and superintendent before stepping into broader regional field leadership., • A high-end General Superintendent, regional superintendent, or equivalent field operations leader who has already run major manpower, multi-crew execution, and labor logistics across multiple sites or highly dense industrial work., • Strong technical roots in at least one lane the company wants to scale: Mechanical and Structural, Critical Electrical, Soft Craft and Coatings, Underground and UMI, Water Solutions, or closely related industrial scopes., • Enough client credibility to help sell work when needed. The target profile is not just a builder of crews, but someone who can help area leadership turn relationships into awarded work., • Strong command of labor productivity, job cost, scheduling discipline, field reporting, margin protection, and recovery planning. You know your numbers, and you know what field behaviors move them., • Safety leadership that shows up in the field, not just on paper. OSHA 30 or equivalent is expected, and the right leader knows how to turn toolbox talks, planning, and accountability into safer jobs and cleaner performance., • A plug-and-play operator. The company wants builders who can execute inside an established system, not someone whose whole pitch is rewriting the business., • Strong references from clients, peers, vendors, and former leaders. That matters here., • Dallas-based or willing to be fully plugged into Dallas. Texas relationships matter, and leadership wants these hires close enough to watch, trust, and scale with. If you can do most of this work, but not every line item, you should still raise your hand. Why strong field leaders take this call • This is a true Regional General Superintendent opening with runway into broader service line responsibility over time., • Leadership has been clear about building from within as the region scales, which creates room for the right person to grow their footprint over time., • The platform is broad enough to keep strong operators engaged and close to real work, not buried in layers., • The compensation is built for senior field talent: base salary up to $250,000, performance bonus, and a broader leadership package., • You will have real influence on how a service line gets staffed, executed, standardized, and grown in one of the company’s most important expansion markets.
