Commercial - Superintendent

We are seeking an experienced Commercial Superintendent to oversee commercial activities across a portfolio of projects, ensuring contracts are administered effectively, financial performance is protected, and commercial obligations are met. The successful candidate will work closely with project managers, engineering teams, clients, consultants, and supply chain partners to support successful delivery from procurement through to completion. Key responsibilities will include managing contract administration, reviewing and negotiating subcontractor and supplier agreements, monitoring project costs, preparing forecasts, and identifying commercial risks and opportunities. You will oversee valuations, payment applications, variations, claims, extensions of time, and final accounts, ensuring all records are accurate, timely, and compliant with contractual requirements. The role will also involve producing regular commercial reports, supporting project reviews, maintaining effective cost controls, and providing clear advice to senior stakeholders on financial and contractual matters. You will be expected to promote consistent processes, challenge assumptions, and help resolve disputes before they escalate. Applicants should have substantial commercial experience in construction, infrastructure, engineering, or a related industry, with a strong understanding of contract principles and project controls. Experience working with standard forms of contract, subcontract procurement, cost reporting, and change management is essential. A relevant qualification in quantity surveying, commercial management, construction management, or a related discipline is desirable. Strong analytical, negotiation, and communication skills are required, together with the ability to manage competing priorities, work independently, and build effective relationships at all levels. You should be commercially astute, detail-oriented, and confident making decisions in a fast-paced project environment. A proactive approach to risk management, sound judgement, and a commitment to safety, integrity, and professional standards are also essential.
