Peterson Consulting Group is seeking an experienced Utility Superintendent to oversee field operations for underground utility projects throughout the Denver Metro and Front Range. This position is ideal for someone who understands in-street utility work, can lead productive crews, and consistently delivers high-quality storm, water, and sewer installations.

The Utility Superintendent will manage daily operations for mainline utilities, services, structures, tie-ins, and roadway restoration—often in tight urban corridors with heavy traffic and strict safety requirements.

  • Coordinate traffic control, lane closures, and safety planning for in-street construction

  • Ensure all work adheres to plans, specifications, and municipal standards

  • Work alongside project managers, engineers, inspectors, and municipal staff

  • Track daily quantities, equipment use, labor hours, and production rates

  • Lead safety meetings and enforce OSHA and company safety requirements

  • Plan manpower, materials, and daily work sequencing

  • Assist PMs with RFIs, redlines, change order details, and field documentation

  • Confirm quality requirements for backfill, compaction, and road patches

What We’re Looking For
  • 8–10+ years of underground utility experience (storm, water, sewer required)

  • 3–5+ years of supervisory experience as a superintendent or utility foreman

  • Strong experience with trenching, pipe installation, and in-street civil work

  • Familiarity with Denver metro municipal specifications (preferred)

  • Confident reading plans, profiles, and alignments

  • Proven ability to maintain schedule and drive production

  • Strong leadership, communication, and field organization skills

  • CDOT experience is a plus, but not required

  • Colorado market experience preferred but not mandatory

What Peterson Consulting Group Offers
  • Salary: $110,000–$150,000+ depending on experience

  • Company truck and fuel card

  • Annual performance-based bonus

  • Full medical, dental, and vision benefits

  • Minimum 3 weeks PTO , plus paid holidays

  • Relocation assistance for qualified candidates
