💲 Compensation Rates for Superintendents are Skyrocketing! 💹 A lot of the GC Superintendents I've worked with are initially skeptical to make a move, or even have a conversation about a new position. Many of them are comfortable in their role, comfortable with their company, and feel a sense of loyalty. After I am able to connect with them though, most people realize just how underpaid they are in their current positions. Meanwhile, there are wonderful companies out there are willing to pay top dollar for the best talent. It never hurts to HAVE the conversation. #CallCarrie and see what market compensation is looking like in your area. Do what's best for your career, and not what feels comfortable. Comfort will only limit your growth potential. 📞 (704)-743-7434 📩 carrieunderwood@mrdavidson.com #generalcontracter #GC #Construction #Hiring #Superintendent #PM #ProjectManager #Precon #Concrete #ConstructionHiring #HiringConstruction #FieldEngineer #ProjectEstimator #NashvilleHiring #NCHiring #SCHiring #APM #AssistantSuperintendent
