Field Construction Supervisor
About the role
Are you a construction-minded leader who enjoys being in the field, working with contractors, and keeping projects moving? Do you have a strong understanding of underground utility construction and the confidence to represent a company in front of cities, contractors, and community partners? IdeaTek is looking for a Field Construction Supervisor to help launch our fiber construction operations in Tucson, Arizona. As we break ground in a new market, you'll serve as a key on-the-ground representative for IdeaTek, working closely with construction contractors and local stakeholders to help ensure projects are built safely, efficiently, and to the expected standard. This is a hands-on opportunity for someone who knows construction, communicates well, and wants to grow into broader project management responsibilities. You'll spend much of your time in the field, building relationships with contractors, monitoring work, working through challenges, and helping establish strong construction practices as IdeaTek expands in Tucson.
You'll spend your day close to the work—checking in with contractors, visiting active construction sites, monitoring progress, and addressing questions or issues as they arise. You may meet with city representatives, review project plans, walk a route with a contractor, or coordinate with internal teams to keep construction moving. Because Tucson is a new IdeaTek market, you'll have an opportunity to help establish how we work with local contractors, cities, and other stakeholders from the ground up. Your ability to communicate clearly, solve problems quickly, and represent IdeaTek professionally will be critical to the success of our construction efforts.
