Project Superintendent Jobs in Massachusetts: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a project superintendent in Massachusetts?
Most project superintendents in Massachusetts enter through a combination of field experience and a degree in construction management, civil engineering, or a related discipline. Massachusetts does not require a state-issued superintendent license, but the Massachusetts Supervisor of Builders license administered by the Board of Building Regulations and Standards is a credential that strengthens candidacy. Many professionals also hold OSHA certifications and graduate from apprenticeship programs through trade unions or the Associated General Contractors of Massachusetts.
How much do project superintendents make in Massachusetts?
Project superintendents in Massachusetts earn a median of about $145,010 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $104,100 for the lowest 10% to over $216,920 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire project superintendents in Massachusetts?
Employers hiring project superintendents in Massachusetts right now include CTA Construction Managers, Cianbro, and The NRP, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Massachusetts's robust pipeline of life sciences campuses, hospital expansions, and university capital projects keeps demand steady across both large general contractors and specialized subcontractors throughout the state.
Which Massachusetts cities have the most project superintendent jobs?
The cities with the most project superintendent openings in Massachusetts are Waltham, Boston, and Lawrence. Boston drives the bulk of demand through its dense concentration of commercial development, hospital construction, and university capital programs, while Worcester and Cambridge contribute substantial volume through healthcare system expansions and biotech campus projects that have attracted major general contractors to those markets.
Are there remote project superintendent jobs in Massachusetts?
Yes, but they're rare. About 0% of project superintendent openings tied to Massachusetts are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting the fundamentally on-site nature of the role. The parts of the work most likely to be done off-site include pre-construction planning, submittal review, and scheduling coordination, though active field oversight keeps most positions site-based throughout a project's duration.
How can I get hired as a project superintendent in Massachusetts with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is starting as an assistant superintendent or field engineer with a large Massachusetts general contractor. Firms like Suffolk Construction and Consigli Construction run structured training programs and hire recent graduates from programs at Wentworth Institute of Technology and Northeastern University. Lateral moves from roles such as project engineer, field coordinator, or lead foreman are common entry points, and holding an OSHA 30 certification before applying gives candidates a concrete edge in early interviews.
Where can I find and apply to project superintendent jobs in Massachusetts?
