The Construction Inspector II is primarily responsible for performing quality assurance inspections and administering City contracts for a large-scale, high profile, high cost, or complex public works projects or similar development projects. The Construction Inspector II assists in the training of new inspection staff, serves as a field resource for both City staff and contractors or developers, and is the designated supervisor in the absence of the Construction Supervisor. The position performs related work as required.

Non-City Utility (NCU) Inspection Assignment: In addition to the duties listed above, an employee assigned to the private utility assignment will be responsible for inspecting various structures and construction projects in the rights-of-way for conformance with approved plans, specifications, inspections, and regulations; inspect concrete, pavement, and directional drilling; daily coordination activities with outside agencies and various City departments; meeting with private and public utilities on a regular basis to determine routes and location of new facilities based on factors such as preservation of City pavements, traffic impacts, and aesthetics of above ground equipment; coordinating joint trench opportunities; and conducting site inspections of overhead communications facilities to ensure outside plant facilities meet National Electric Safety Code (NESC) and other City requirements. Also, the employee assigned to private utility assignment will review construction plans and specifications for conformance with Maricopa Association of Governments (MAG) and City specifications.

In addition to being primarily assigned to large-scale or complex City or private public works projects, an employee in this class is required to use appropriate safety equipment and follow approved safety procedures in performing work assignments. The Construction Inspector II is expected to exercise initiative and independent judgment in performing quality assurance inspections and administering City contracts to ensure that all quality standards are met and that contract projects are completed in a timely manner with minimal extra costs. The Construction Inspector II is distinguished from the Construction Inspector I by being primarily involved in the administration of large-scale City projects or highly complex projects, by being designated as supervisor in the absence of the Construction Supervisor or directing the work of a contract inspector. The Construction Inspector II is distinguished from the Construction Supervisor primarily by the lack of full-supervisory responsibilities. This class is supervised by a Construction Supervisor or Right of Way Manager through meetings and reports concerning the status of assigned project(s), problems encountered, and overall quality standard compliance. This class is FLSA nonexempt.
