Description of the company:

Our client is a Calgary custom home builder that works at the top of the market. Most of their homes are priced at $2M and up. They build one-of-a-kind homes in inner-city infill, acreage properties and newer luxury communities around the city.

They’ve been at it for close to a decade and have delivered dozens of homes. Their reputation rests on how carefully the work is done on site. They build fewer homes than a volume builder and put more into each one.

Clients are closely involved from start to finish, and the team runs on clear communication and written decisions. The site is treated as part of the client experience, not just a workplace.

Why is this role open:

The client is adding a supervisor who can take full ownership of their own builds. They want someone who runs the site day to day so the Field Operations Manager is checking in, not directing.

Responsibilities:

- Run assigned builds from excavation through to possession
- Own quality on every build: inspections at each stage with photos, and tracking deficiencies until they’re closed
- Schedule trades, suppliers, deliveries and inspections, and tell clients ahead of time when crews will be on site
- Keep daily logs and schedules current in Buildertrend
- Check plans, specs, selections and delivered materials against what was sold before anything is installed
- Catch out-of-scope work before it happens, get change orders documented, and make sure nothing starts without an approved PO
- Keep a clean, safe, organized site and enforce OH&S; requirements
- Join client walkthroughs, such as the electrical walk, and get each home ready for possession day
- Hand each finished home to the warranty team with any open items written down

Must-haves:

- 6+ years supervising residential construction, including running full builds from foundation to occupancy




- Custom home experience (required)
- Strong knowledge of construction sequencing, building code and site safety
- Able to read architectural and structural drawings, specs and details
- Comfortable having direct conversations with trades and clients, and willing to raise problems early
- Positive at keeping written records and clear in your updates
- Valid driver’s licence and clean driving record

Nice-to-haves:

- Buildertrend experience
- Background in luxury or high-end custom builds

Work style: Full-time and site-based across the Calgary area. Company vehicle provided. Weekly check-ins with the Field Operations Manager and weekly job walks.

Compensation: $120,000+
