Construction Superintendent 1

Habitat for Humanity
Oregon, OH
You’re at your best when leading all phases of site construction—from breaking ground, through infrastructure and vertical construction, to final inspections and move-in. You oversee all on-site activity, including scheduling, supervising trades, quality inspections, and maintaining compliance with safety standards. You’re skilled at reading and interpreting plans, scopes of work, and specifications, and ensuring every detail is executed to high standards. You’re comfortable coordinating complex workflows, directly managing multiple team members, and keeping projects on schedule—especially when collaborating with peers, other departments, subcontractors, and volunteers.

You support your fellow team members—Project Manager, Project Engineer, and site staff—by ensuring communication is clear, timelines are met, and challenges are proactively addressed. You’re excited to contribute to Habitat for Humanity’s mission by delivering high-quality homes safely, efficiently, and on-time.

At Habitat for Humanity Portland Region we believe that everyone deserves a stable and affordable place to call home. Founded in 1981, we have built and repaired homes in partnership with over 3,000 people across the Portland region. Habitat for Humanity Portland Region is an independent affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International and operates out of three offices, four brick-and-mortar stores, multiple one warehouse, and construction sites in Portland, Hillsboro, King City, Gresham, and Lake Oswego.


Habitat Portland Region is intentional about building a healthy and thriving organizational culture and envisions a community of staff, partners, volunteers, and donors who are deeply committed to equitable and anti-racist practices in every facet of our organization. All of our staff engage in continual learning and seek ways to operationalize equitable practices.
