Lead Superintendent
About the Role
The Lead Superintendent is responsible for the supervision of all field activities related to the physical construction. The Lead Superintendent must assure that the combination of the Jobsite workforce components results in a cohesive product that achieves the required quality and is completed in the shortest possible time. To that end, the Lead Superintendent must continually work to assure adequate staffing of the workforce, sufficient supply of materials, and complete information as necessary to assemble the product, and must plan for all these things sufficiently enough in advance so as not to interfere with the progress of any one component. The Lead Superintendent participates in our Mission, lives by our Values, and promotes the Vision of Excellence.

About the Company
Middleburg is a vertically integrated developer, builder, and operator of rental housing — with $5.3B+ in completed transactions and 32,000+ homes delivered since 2004. Our research team uses AI, GIS, and proprietary data to identify underserved markets and supply/demand imbalances before they are visible to the market. That front-end work feeds directly into our land acquisition discipline: we evaluate hundreds of sites to select a few. In-house construction allows us to control basis and timeline in ways that third-party build models don’t. Our property management platform closes the loop — giving us operating data that feeds back into our next acquisition model. Every function makes the others sharper.
At Middleburg, we share a vision for greater value creation through community impact. Our success is rooted in a genuine desire to serve our local communities in thoughtful and holistic ways. By enhancing the lives of others, we contribute positively to neighborhoods and maximize real returns for our partners.
