For more than 45 years we have built across Florida in hospitality, multi-family, industrial, healthcare, and the public sector, with project values ranging from $5M to $160M. Our work is guided by our GRIT values — Growth, Resourcefulness, Integrity, and Teamwork — and a culture built on doing right by our people, our trade partners, and our clients.
The Opportunity
Superintendents are HBC's front-line field leaders — responsible for the safe, on-time, on-budget delivery of work on site. As a Superintendent I, you independently run a smaller or less complex project, or a defined portion of a larger one, under the guidance of the Project Manager. You build a cohesive team from our trade partner base, drive the schedule, own quality and safety in the field, and keep the project moving day by day.
Project Startup & Planning:
- Complete the project start-up checklist and, with the Safety Department, prepare the on-site safety orientation and site-specific safety plan; ensure every worker signs off before working.
- Review all trade partner scopes of work and confirm understanding and buy-in with each foreman before mobilization.
- Study specifications to plan procedures, sequencing, and staffing for each phase of construction.
- Scheduling & Field Management: Manage the schedule with the PM, including monthly updates and weekly two-to-four-week look-aheads in the standard format or Microsoft Project.
- Lead the weekly trade partner coordination meeting covering schedule, logistics, procurement, and permitting; distribute minutes through Procore.
- Procure and confirm timely delivery of tools and materials to conform to the schedule.
Documentation, Quality & Inspections:
- Complete the Procore Daily Report by 9 a.m. the following morning for every day workers are on site, with daily progress photos.
- Own quality control using Procore inspection checklists by discipline; hold pre-installation meetings with each trade to confirm submittal, manufacturer, and code requirements are met.
- Schedule and walk all AHJ, third-party, threshold, and owner inspections; have documentation ready, document results, and confirm them in the AHJ system.
- Prepare RFI backup (question, drawing reference, recommended solution) for the PM.
- Maintain the permit log with the PM, keep as-built drawings current, and review the closeout checklist with the PM.
- Perform proper cost coding and turn in receipts, tickets, reports, and timesheets to the PM weekly by end of day Monday.
Safety & Loss Prevention:
- Champion HBC's safety culture and ensure full compliance with OSHA requirements, company policy, and the site-specific safety plan.
- Lead and document weekly toolbox safety meetings and conduct the weekly jobsite safety inspection across the entire site.
- Maintain SDS files, safety signage, emergency contacts, fire extinguishers, first-aid kits, and PPE stock at all times.
- Partner with the Safety Department to maintain the site-specific safety plan and correct deficiencies immediately.
- Complete and submit all incident and accident reports and investigations; maintain contact with any injured employee and coordinate with HR.

Mid Level Interior Design Associate Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a mid level interior design associate job?
Position yourself by leading with project ownership rather than task completion. Highlight work where you managed a full project phase, made client-facing design decisions, or resolved construction document issues independently. A strong portfolio showing concept through installation, combined with software proficiency in AutoCAD, Revit, or comparable tools, signals readiness to hiring managers at this level.
Which companies hire mid level interior design associates?
Companies hiring mid level interior design associates right now include RH, Ryan Companies US, and Burns & McDonnell, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. At this level, hiring comes from established design studios, architecture firms with interior practices, commercial real estate developers, and hospitality or retail brands with in-house design teams.
Are there remote mid level interior design associate jobs?
Yes, though remote availability varies by project type. About 9% of mid level interior design associate openings are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, with fully remote roles more common in space planning, FF&E specification, and design documentation work than in roles requiring site visits or hands-on client collaboration.
How do I move up to a mid level interior design associate role?
Moving into a mid level role comes from consistently taking on more than your job description requires. Build toward independently managing project phases, developing vendor and contractor relationships, and producing construction documents with minimal revision cycles. Demonstrating that your design decisions hold up through execution, not just presentation, is what distinguishes mid level readiness from entry level performance.
Which industries hire the most mid level interior design associates?
Mid Level interior design associate roles concentrate in Construction & Real Estate, Retail, and Consulting & Professional Services, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors drive hiring at this level because they require designers who can manage complex, multi-stakeholder projects with established brand standards, occupancy requirements, or high-volume rollout schedules.
