Full Job Description

We are seeking an experienced Concrete Superintendent to run our concrete operations in the field: leading crews and subcontractors on commercial and public concrete work, and making sure every pour goes in right the first time, on schedule, and passes inspection.

Location: Des Moines metro office. Project work within a 3 to 4 hour driving radius of Des Moines.

1. ABOUT US

RISE Construction is a general contractor built on a simple but rare belief: the best projects happen when your contractor thinks like a partner, not a vendor.

We specialize in complex projects that demand more than a standard playbook. We've converted failing restaurants into housing, brought buildings back to life that communities had written off, and saved clients serious money before a single nail was driven, because we know how to look at a property the way an owner does. That's not a metaphor. Our team has deep roots in real estate ownership, and that perspective changes everything about how we approach a project.

We're not a company that just executes. We think strategically, we get creative, and we're honest with our clients about where the real leverage is.

We're looking for people who take the work personally. If you own your scope, solve problems nobody handed you a playbook for, and hold a standard higher than what you can get away with, you'll fit right in here.

2. WHY THIS ROLE EXISTS

Concrete is the foundation of nearly every project we touch, and it's the scope with the least margin for error. A slab that's out of tolerance, a footing that fails inspection, or a pour that gets held up because the pump wasn't scheduled costs us money we can't get back. This role exists because our concrete work has grown past what can be managed part-time from a truck between other responsibilities. We need one person who owns the field execution of every concrete scope we self-perform.

To be clear about the shape of this job: we have our estimating covered. This is an execution role. We're looking for someone who takes a job that's already been sold and makes it get built right.

3. THE OPPORTUNITY

This is a role with real authority. You'll run your own jobs, direct your own crews, and make the calls that determine whether the work goes in right, instead of waiting for someone in an office to tell you what to do.

What that looks like in practice:

You run a crew of 8 to 15 across 3 to 5 active jobs at a time
You own concrete execution end to end, layout through closeout
You direct crews, subs, and suppliers, and you set the standard they work to
You report directly to ownership and work alongside them on complex, interesting projects, not cookie-cutter repeat work
Performance bonus tied to project outcomes, so when the project wins, you win

4. WHAT YOU'LL DO

Field Leadership:

Run daily operations for Rise's self-perform concrete crews and concrete subcontractors across 3 to 5 active jobs
Lay out and verify grades, elevations, and dimensions against plans before any work starts
Direct forming, rebar placement, embeds, and pre-pour checks. Nothing gets poured until you've signed off
Run daily huddles, enforce OSHA and Rise safety standards, and hold the site to them
Train and develop crew members. The guys who work for you should be better at their job a year from now

Scheduling & Coordination:

Schedule crews, ready-mix deliveries, pumps, and equipment so pours aren't sitting idle
Coordinate with other trades and the project manager to sequence concrete work around the rest of the job
Flag schedule and cost issues early, before they become change orders

Quality & Compliance:

Enforce mix design, slump, air content, temperature, and cure requirements
Own quality on public and private jobs. Know the spec section, coordinate testing and inspection, keep the file clean
Manage punch, patching, sealing, joint work, and closeout on your scopes
Maintain documentation including daily logs, pour records, manpower, quantities, and inspection reports

5. THE REALITY OF THE JOB

We'd rather tell you this up front than have you find out in month three.

Pours start early. On pour days you're on site before the crew and before the first truck, and that often means a 5:00 or 6:00 AM start. Weather runs the calendar, not the other way around, so a schedule set on Monday can move by Wednesday and you're the one resequencing it. You'll be outside in Iowa summers and Iowa winters. During the busy stretch, Saturdays happen. Most of your work is within an hour of the metro, but some jobs will put you 3 to 4 hours out.

In exchange, we don't nickel-and-dime you on time. When the jobs are in good shape, take the time you need. We measure this role by whether the work got built right, not by hours logged.

6. THE MINDSET REQUIRED

Owns the Pour: You don't hand off responsibility for quality. If it's in your scope, it's on you, and you'd rather stop the truck than pour something you'll have to fix later
Translator Between Field and Office: You're not the one with the trowel in your hand. Your job is to make sure the crew knows exactly what good looks like before they start, and that the office and the client know exactly where the job stands before they have to ask
Plans Ahead: You're thinking about Thursday's pour on Monday, because concrete doesn't forgive a missed detail
Proactive Communicator: You speak up early when something doesn't look right, whether it's in the plans, in the field, or in the schedule
Self-Directed: You don't need to be micromanaged. You know what needs to happen and you make it happen
Team Builder: You treat subcontractors and crews with respect and hold them to a high standard at the same time

7. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

Must-Haves:

Field experience running concrete crews. You've been the one directing the work, not just doing it
Familiarity with commercial concrete including flatwork, foundations, footings, and structural applications
Working knowledge of public bid work: city or county specs, submittals, and the inspection process
Ability to read and interpret civil, structural, and architectural drawings and specifications
Solid grasp of layout and grade setting
Strong communication skills. You can talk to an owner, an engineer, and a concrete crew in the same day
Valid driver's license and clean driving record

Nice-to-Haves:

Bilingual English/Spanish
Background in tilt-up or structural concrete

We care more about what you've actually done than how many years you've been doing it. If you have the skills and the drive, we want to talk.

8. COMPENSATION & BENEFITS

Base Pay: $85,000-110,000 [dependent on experience]
Bonus: Performance-based bonus tied to project profitability and execution
Flexible Time Off: At Rise, we operate on a flexible time-off model built on mutual trust. As long as your targets are on track and your teammates and clients are supported, you have the flexibility to take time off as needed.
Paid Holidays: Rise observes seven paid holidays: New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving (and the Friday after), and Christmas Day.
Growth: As Rise scales, this role scales with it. Compensation and title will reflect your impact

Health, dental, and vision insurance are included. See the benefits list below.

9. HOW TO APPLY & WHAT TO EXPECT

We keep our process straightforward and respectful of your time.

To apply:

Submit your resume on Indeed

Our process:

Step 1: Resume review. We aim to respond within 3 business days
